Customer Ratings & Reviews

First, the promotional price is great for both the doorbell and sync module. The sync module not only allows you to tether numerous cameras together, but also allows you to store video locally, eliminating the need for a subscription. You should know, though, that you can not view the video remotely. You have to take out the flash drive and view it on a computer or other device. The performance of the doorbell is somewhat disappointing. We had to move our router to about 10 feet away from the device to get reasonably consistent performance. The camera seems to work fine, other than there being a several second delay between the doorbell and the device I am viewing it on. Not much of a problem except when you are trying to use the two way communication. Also, it seems as though the door bell does not chime on my phone or give me notifications if the bell is rung again within a few minutes. It does take video within this time frame, though. Installation is pretty straight forward. Gets a little trickier if you try to merge it with Alexa. There is almost no instructional help with that. In general, it does work, if not real well, but you can't beat the price for an entry level security system.

This is our first video doorbell, I always wanted one but we have such a small space that most doorbells are too large. This is large too but surprisingly it fits in our small space. Installation & set up was super easy. We chose to go wire free & keep our existing doorbell, the only problem is by doing this you can’t hear the Blink doorbell ring. The video quality is good & our home is pretty far from the street but it actually captures cars going by & also movement in our driveway. Night vision is good too & you can switch to recorded videos or live view. Microphone is clear when talking to each other. Batteries are suppose to last up to two years. Notifications are constant on my phone because were in & out a lot so I just turned the sound off & have the banner show because it was driving me crazy. The only thing I don’t like is that a subscription is needed after 30 day trial in order to save the videos & the videos when played back are very small, even when viewed on an iPad I don’t see anywhere to enlarge them. Nice doorbell for the price though.

Easy installation and setup. I did a wired install which hooked up to my indoor chime. Image quality is good, but not as good as the blink outdoor 4 camera. One disappointment for me is that the ring of blue light around the button of the doorbell does not light up until that button is pressed. It does not light up with the motion of someone approaching. I called blink, and they said that feature was removed because it was draining the batteries. The blink app does seem to work well and is easy to navigate. You may want to review the blink website for the cost and features included with their subscription for cloud storage verses local storage of video.

The Blink Video Doorbell is an awesome addition to any home security setup. It lets you chat with visitors thanks to its two-way audio feature, and the HD video gives you a clear view of your doorstep. Plus, you’ll always know what’s happening around your door with the motion and chime app alerts, even when you’re not home. One of the coolest things about this doorbell is that it works with Alexa, so you can easily make it part of your smart home. Whether you go for the wired or wire-free version, installing it is a breeze. And the sleek black color option adds a nice touch to your entryway. All in all, the Blink Video Doorbell offers great features, reliable performance, and peace of mind, making it a top choice for anyone upgrading their home security.

The Blink Doorbell is an absolute game-changer for home security. Its sleek design complements any entrance, but it's not just about looks; this device packs a punch when it comes to functionality. The setup was a breeze, and the app's user-friendly interface made it a snap to customize settings. The motion detection and two-way audio provide peace of mind, whether I'm at home or away. The video quality is excellent, even in low light, thanks to night vision. With cloud storage, I can review footage anytime. The Blink Doorbell is an essential addition to my home, offering convenience and security in one package.

The Blink Smart WiFi Doorbell provides a decent entry into the world of smart doorbells, but it falls short in some key areas. While it offers some useful features, it lacks the polish and reliability that I had hoped for in a smart home device. On the positive side, the installation process was relatively straightforward. The included instructions were clear, and I was able to set up the doorbell without much hassle. The integration with the Blink app was also seamless, allowing me to easily access the doorbell's features and settings. The video quality of the Blink Smart WiFi Doorbell is adequate. It provides a clear view of the front door area, and the wide-angle lens captures a decent field of view. However, I noticed some inconsistency in video streaming, with occasional delays and buffering. This can be frustrating when trying to quickly see who is at the door. One of the disappointments with this doorbell is the lack of advanced features. Unlike some other smart doorbell options on the market, the Blink doorbell lacks features like facial recognition, customizable motion detection zones, or two-way audio communication. These additional features would have greatly enhanced the overall functionality and user experience. Another area where the Blink doorbell falls short is the responsiveness of the mobile app. There were instances when I experienced delays in receiving notifications or accessing the live view. This inconsistency can be a significant drawback when you rely on the doorbell for security purposes. Additionally, the build quality of the doorbell could be improved. It feels a bit flimsy and lacks the sturdiness I expected from a device that is exposed to the elements. It would be beneficial to have a more durable construction that can withstand various weather conditions. On the positive side, the Blink Smart WiFi Doorbell does offer basic features like motion detection and cloud storage for recorded videos. The ability to review past events is useful, especially for monitoring any activity at the doorstep. In summary, the Blink Smart WiFi Doorbell is a decent entry-l

This is the first video doorbell I've ever dealt with, but I found it easy to use, and it provides what we wanted a video doorbell for, to see who is outside without going to door. I initially was just gonna use it in conjunction with sync module and store files locally, but the free trial to their cloud service kinda made me change course (using just local was slow in comparison), but luckily, it's cheap (like 3 bucks a month for one device, or 30 a year). When we have ours armed, we get notification when motion is detected (I turned setting down to 4 so a big truck going by doesn't set it off, and maxed it to 60sec before it can be set off again, but sometimes you just have to pause notifications or disarm motion detection), but it is useful when expecting a package and knowing when someone is at door that isn't going to ring the doorbell. Quality of video is good enough for our needs, and hopefully we can save up for some additional cameras, or at least motion sensing floodlights for night, of course sticking with blink would then mean additional devices which I think would then go to 10/mo for cloud service, which still isn't bad compared to some others I've seen. But it's a good device that doesn't break the bank, which was another factor to getting this, we're on a tight budget right now.

Easy to use, easier to install. Good quality and very good price. Its gives you a sense of security

This camera system is great and very easy to use. The setup process is very easy and the app works well. I will say before getting blink I had ring I switched because I kept having connectivity issues with my front door camera it was once every three days it would disconnect and not want to connect to the WiFi. I will say my favorite feature about it was it would take a picture every five minutes and the blink doesn’t offer it.

I really wanted a wireless doorbell with local storage. And one that didn't also require a cloud subscription. Not that easy to find. After a different brand had constant connection issues, I sent it back and found this one, which also has local storage. I decided to take a chance on it. First, installation and set-up were very quick and easy. Second, it not only works well, it works consistently. I've used it for nearly a month now and it hasn't lost connection even one time. I think the video quality and adjustment options aren't quite as good as the other brand, but only slightly. But the point is - this one works - all the time. It has not dropped connection once since I installed it. And though I wish it had a plug-in chime, I can still hear it just fine. It rings directly and loudly on the doorbell and also sends a loud notification on my phone when movement is detected and when the doorbell is rung. I can hear from anywhere in the house even without a chime. So for me it's a definite win.

Very happy with this video doorbell. Has a nice understated look to it. Setup is easy as the app walks you through everything. The video quality is great, audio is decent enough. The 30 day trial to save clips was nice to have (no payment on file needed). Switching over to local USB storage on the sync module that was included was easy enough after the trial ended. Tried eufy brand doorbell before this and it was not good as it had poor app functionality and the motion sensing was more miss than hit. This doorbell is much better. The notifications for motion sensor come in straight away on the app. It's easy to view and delete clips. Only complaint would be the brightness of the status lights but they can be easily covered with electrical tape if the module can't be placed somewhere where the lights aren't an issue.

When I'm reading a review, I don't like to read a bunch of hot air. Let's get right down to business. The good: - CHEAP peace of mind. I can't believe how affordable this kind of tech is getting. - Easy to connect to your wifi and set up. - If you have a total tech membership, they will install it for free. - Looks pretty sleek for something very affordable. - Compact size makes it barely noticeable in a lot of instances. I had it installed and when I arrived back home and saw it for the first time I had a hard time even noticing it at night. This could be a positive or negative depending on how you look at it. For example, many people WANT people to know they're being watched to deter them... if that's your priority, this would be a negative. If you want something discrete and not gaudy, this is a very good choice. The bad: - Video quality is really, really bad unless the subject is VERY close. However, at this price level, one would probably expect this. - A lot of false positives(roughly 7-10 per day), BUT, I have not done any additional tinkering as far as the zones and sensitivity go as of yet. So take this with a grain of salt. For what it's worth, I live on a street that doesn't get a lot of traffic, so 7-10 is probably literally everything that passes. Something to also keep in mind is that I've only owned this for a short time. Time will tell how this holds up and I will try to remember to update my review if I think of it.

OK, we've had this stuff long enough now to provide accurate feedback. At first, this seemed like a really good deal, since we wanted a doorbell camera that we could use local USB storage without monthly fees....which it does, after using the free trial of the online subscription for a month. Pros: 1. Yes it stores video clips locally to USB. Sync module is easy to use and provides doorbell chime as indicated. 2. Video quality is good, night vision=not bad if you set it correctly. 3. Granular control over detection zones. 4. Very price competetive. Cons: 1. Without the online subscription, using ANYTHING from the local USB is sloooooooooooooooow. Once the thing says motion is detected, it takes almost 30 seconds to actually see what's on the camera. A burglar could set off the camera, break in, kill us, steal two TV's and our cat, and drive away before anyone can see what's on the camera feed!!! 2. Even blocking out zones with granular feed, it still triggers motion in these zones all the time....so what's the point? 3. To get good enough night vision, motion sensitivity, etc. to be of any use, it burns through batteries like crazy, which ups the cost of use. 4. Now just around a year old, it's starting to act up so that we have to reboot the module at LEAST once a week, sometimes more to get it to record clips of the motion it's detecting, making it extremely unreliable if we want to go on vacation. Overall, it was inexpensive, and is better that the piece of junk Wuuk doorbell system it replaced, and one of the only "name brand" doorbell cams that does NOT require an expensive monthly subscription, so I dunno whether to tell you this is worth it or not <sigh>. For people like me that need some sort of doorbell, want to get into the video doorbell game on the cheap, skip monthly subscriptions, and don't mind constantly griping about the one you bought, I suppose this is the one for you.

Excellent quality and simple installation. I love being able to see and talk to visitors from my phone. Works flawlessly!

Easy to install. camera and audio clarity are excellent. You can arm and disarm the movement at touch of a button. You can view the doorbell or movement anywhere in the world. Excellent.

Easy to install and make it work. Works great with existing cameras. Option to store videos locally using USB drive is a plus
