    Didn’t even take it out of the box. Bought the one with the sync module and was going to add this as a second camera for our other door, but could not get it to connect to their servers. Same with the Blink mini. Bought a no name brand and within 3 steps had it working and able to see images clearly. Will not buy another Blink product again.

    I had high hopes for this device. I settled for it as my Best Buy was out of stock of the one I really wanted. Spent 1+ hours trying to make this work. Camera would not attach to mounting plate. I had others try and nobody got it. I went to another store, and purchased the product I wanted in the first place, as I already had my doorbell disconnected.

    Cool doorbell. 3rd party installer sucked because he never showed up. Then Geek Squad: Derek came to the rescue. He was awesome!

    It's An OK Doorbell Camera

    I'm a fan of Blink products already having a couple of their cameras covering my back yard. One of the appeals of the Blink cameras when I first got those two cameras was the free 2GB cloud storage which leads to my number one complaint about this doorbell camera. You get a 30 day free trial of their cloud storage and then you're paying for yet another monthly plan. Why not offer up a local storage option like Arlo does with their base station? Or better yet, work with Apple Home Kit? OK, that aside, this camera is pretty good. Picture quality is above average and night vision is outstanding. The doorbell feature is plenty loud as well. However, even though I set up activity zones they do nothing. Except at 1:37am when it records essentially nothing for about a minute. I'm not getting any notifications of movement detected nor recordings unless someone rings the doorbell. Meanwhile, my now two year old previous gen Blink cameras work perfectly detecting movement and notifying me of said movement. I am using the wireless option and Blink includes two lithium Energizer batteries to get you started. Pairing to my Blink hub was pretty straight forward. The physical installation proved to be a bit problematic. I drilled the holes and installed the back plate easy enough. installing the doorbell unit itself to the backplate was not so easy. The instructions in the app say press the top portion to the plate and pull down to securly install it. It took me about 20 minutes to get it to attach properly. I'm not looking forward to battery change time. Overall, this is a decent doorbell camera if you're willing to live with its limits.

    If you have a membership this is a great product if you dont then its worthless. They dont even provide a 15 seconds snapshot video. The app sometimes takes forever to chime. No SD card slot. I regretted buying this product after the trial ran out. Not buying this brand again.

    USELESS WITHOUT A SUBSCRIPTION NICKLE AND DIMING C

    Nickle and diming is the new way of making money from customers. If you do not have a subscription you cannot record and view at the same time. Then what is the point of these cameras is you cannot access basic features. Greedy and deceptive process. Should have expect these from the richest Lex luthor Jeff Bezos Baldy.

    Great ring bell camera, I love that that picks up movement very fast. Also the speaker is very good and loud enough.

    Why on earth the installation process will be so bad. I mounted it in the wall and tried all methods to hook up the device. No Luck. Returned for another , called customer service, Still no luck. The video tutorial shows it is easy peasy but it is not. Agents failed to help. What is the point of getting this if mounting is so painful

    Terrible system and doesn't connect easily to a radio style internet system. Multiple tech support calls and system does not have Geofensing in with Arlo does and that is the way I prefer to have it arm and disarm
