The sale price sold me on giving these a shot. Interested to see how long the batteries hold up overall. Had one camera with dead batteries within 30 days that does have a really active view of a sidewalk and street. Adjusting the motion area that triggers recordings to see if that helps. Was planning on doing cameras for better reliability and skip subscription expenses but these seem to do enough to save me the trouble of doing that for now. Going to try just doing local storage and skipping the subscription.
App set up is very easy. Installation as well. The app does freeze up occasionally and needs to be restarted. If you are looking for a simple set up solution this product is a good fit. Worth the money when it is on sale.

The clips are very good. Easy to set up. Once trial is up you are done unless you pay. It will alert there is someone, but you get no clip. Not at all what I’m looking for. Tried to look at plans and it tells me that’s unavailable at the moment.

The cam may or may not be decent for it's purpose but I never got past the difficulty encountered when trying to mount camera to poorly conceived mount. Blink should have spent a few cents more for a mount that the camera could screw on to.

When I purchased these cameras I thought for the price it was a good deal. I had read the reviews and I didn't see anyone having the problems I've been having. The cameras were easy to set up and all worked immediately. I installed then in the locations I wanted and was able to view all the cameras with no problems. After 2 days, the closest camera to the Sync Module and the WIFI quit working. The WIFI signa strength is at maximum for all cameras. I discovered I could make it work setting it up with Extended Range (XR). The next day, it quit working again and then all the cameras quit working. I deleted the cameras and re-installed and they all worked with the one XR. All cameras have been working for 3 days now. I get many recordings of no activity. I discovered the video starts recording about 5 seconds after the activity or motion is detected. Some motion is not detected at all. I have had 3 vehicles drive by and only the last vehicle is recorded as it is passing out of view. The delay to start recording a video is the biggest and most negative problem I haven't been able to resolve and there is no setting to make it quicker.

Good Morning RonH,
Thank you for your detailed feedback about the Blink Outdoor 4 XR cameras. We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and understand your frustration with the connectivity issues and recording delays you've encountered.
The issues you've described, particularly the recording delay and missed motion events, are certainly not in line with our product's intended performance. While the XR system is designed to provide extended range coverage up to 400 feet, it should maintain stable connectivity once properly set up.
To address your specific concerns:
Regarding the connectivity issues: While the XR setup seems to have provided a temporary solution, we'd like to ensure this remains stable. The 5-second delay in recording and missed motion events are not typical and may indicate a need for adjustment or possible warranty service.
We would like to help resolve these issues. Please contact our technical support team at 1-800-280-4331. They can:
Run diagnostic tests on your system Help optimize your camera placement and settings Address any potential firmware updates that might help
Your feedback helps us improve our products, and we want to ensure you get the security coverage you expected when making this purchase.

This product so far has worked great. I feel like it was the best being for my book as I only have to pay $100 a year to get the full service compared to other products which cost a lot more yearly. The picture looks great and has been working well for my business

These cameras are small but don't let the size fool you. The picture quality is great and I love how easy they are to install and get working. They fit perfectly and blend in with my black gutters and downspouts! Blink does a great job for a great price.
