Great system to monitor home and around. Easy to install and to control.

Easy to install. Right angle adapter fits too loose to be useful. Night vision could be better. Had to turn sensitivity up so we’ll see how battery life is affected.

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.

Hi Kenli, I’m sorry to hear the batteries in your Blink Outdoor 4 XR cameras are draining so quickly. Battery life can be affected by settings and usage, but you may be able to extend it by lowering clip length, reducing motion sensitivity, and limiting live view sessions in the Blink app. If you’re still seeing only a few days of use, I recommend contacting Blink Customer Support at 1-833-392-5465 so they can review your setup and help improve performance. I appreciate your feedback and hope you have a great day!

Hi Kay1020, I am sorry to hear about your experience with the Blink Outdoor 4 XR. Motion detection should work consistently, and I understand how frustrating it can be when it doesn’t perform as expected. I recommend checking the camera’s placement and adjusting the motion detection settings in the Blink app, as these steps often resolve the issue. If you’re still having trouble, our customer support team is happy to assist further. Please contact us at 1-833-392-5465 so we can help ensure your system is working properly. Have a good day!

Got a great deal. It's a replacement of some older cameras.
