Customers are saying

Customers express satisfaction with the easy installation, video quality, affordability, and security features of the Smart Wifi Video Doorbell. They appreciate the dependable motion detection and night vision capabilities, as well as the convenience of the sync module. However, some users have concerns about battery life, the need for a subscription for continuous recordings, a slight delay in performance, connectivity issues, and the lack of a live view feature at all times.

    BestBuy.com was the only place where I could buy the white color. The blink bell was easy to install and is compatible with existing analog chime. I had a question and the Blink customer service was able to help. There is an external USB stick option, which is great! The video and notification is instant when subscribed to cloud but with a USB memory it is a bit slow and at times it is as late as 3 minutes. I wish if it was a bit faster. Aesthetically, it looks beautiful. One tip, do take the photo of the DSN info for future from your bell.

    Night vision works good, a little bit of a glare. Other than that, everything is perfect on it. I put it up and less than a week later caught someone trying to break into my house… I’m so thankful for this camera. It makes me feel safer and secure. I have the door bell camera and the inside cameras. The monthly payment to save videos is $10 a month which is not bad at all! I would highly recommend, I told all of my neighbors they should get these cameras. Super easy to set up, they have step by step along the way, and if you can’t seem to get it set up right away the app has that covered and helps with extra steps on that too. You can watch live video (which saved the video you watch), and talk through the door bell as well. If you have other cameras you can set up the door bell chime though the other cameras too. I have mine set up that way so when someone rings the door bell I can hear it throughout my house.

    Works as described. Getting the backplate on was a nightmare and the videos online are no help and, neither was CS. They sent another plate thinking it was defective but it wasn't and, the bp was different. When I called, the representative was not very kind. The next conversation was with a supervisor. With family help, the original bp finally made the connection and I was able to mount it to the anti-theft door mount (purchased separately) and complete the setup, which was very easy. Be sure to get the Sync Module at the same time. You'll pay less and save yourself in the long run. You don't need a subscription w/the module but it's minimal if you choose it. Overall, I'm happy w/the purchase and the peace of mind it brings me.

    I reside in a four family apartment building, we have never had any issues with missing packages. However, we have had issue's with a few trespassers within the hallways and i had to escort them out. For this reason i made the purchase of this door bell, which acts as a camera when someone passes by its set to automatically record untill all movement has ceased. The instructions are clear, simple and i had it set up and working within twenty minutes or less. I love the wide angle on the doorbell, it really does a great job at catching all the details nice and clear. If someone is hanging around where they shouldn't you can speak to them through the speaker on the unit itself, it works clear enough for the person on the other end to make out what your saying. The notifications are communicated instantly to your cell phone once the motion sensor detects movement. The doorbell has two methods of instructions it can either run on two AA batteries or you can permanently install the unit using your doorbell wiring, but you may have to upgrade your transformer to one with a higher voltage so the camera works as efficiently as it can. I know this because i had to perform the upgrade for a friend who had issues with his unit not working properly untill the upgrade was made. Its not too difficult but some electrical comprehension helps or you can just turn to youtube. Well i guess that wraps it up, you get about two weeks or so before your trial period ends and you have to subscribe in order to keep your history and other options going. Would i personally purchase this unit again? Yes, without a doubt! We have children on the premises and we need to make it safe for everyone!

    The Blink is an excellent, cost efficient, and user friendly camera. I had another system but to replace the cord on another well known name brand camera, it was less expensive to buy a Blink camera BB had on sale. It was supposed to be a temporary alternative but I ended up preferring over the other! Now, I'm trusting a complete Blink system to monitor my business!

    I purchased an outdoor camera preemptively without knowledge of the sync module. Much to my chagrin Best Buy sells the doorbell and sync module at a great price. Set up and installation took less than 20 minutes and connected to my outdoor camera with ease and I am pleased about my panoramic view of the entrances to my home. It has great sound quality whether recording or using the microphone. As well as great nightvision capability even without use of porchlight or other lumination. I chose to use mine wirelessly, but the wiring option and necessary pieces are included in packaging. Mounting requires a drill and 7/32 drill bit for easiest installation, but necessary hardware is otherwise included. Their cloud subscription is cheap through Amazon at only $10 a month for unlimited devices, recording, saving, and sharing of clips. I will be purchasing more from this brand in the near future.

    Very easy to install. Works great. Camera shows wide area. Love motion sensor. Live feed can see across the street. It has different options for notifications and storing. I don't have a doorbell so this is a great alternative. Can hear the ring outside, inside my living room. Delivery was fast, glad we got it from Best Buy.

    I bought this for my grandma's house. She's getting older and it helps me keep tabs on her and the neighborhood concerns. I haven't quite figured out if it will chime through the Echo Show I got her. I appreciate the additional layer of security it provides.

    Does the work, easy to install, took me not more than 10 minutes to mount it on the wall and to program it to start using it. I wish it didn’t have that delay of a few seconds to show the live feed after the motion sensor activates. But for the price I got it for is worth it.

    It was a pain to set up, it wants to connect to its own network that doesn’t work. It also spins a lot even though we have good internet and WiFi. It currently has a problem saving clips to the memory card and forces you to use the cloud storage. Other than that it has great range and picture quality. The sound isn’t that great. I gave 3 stars because if the issues but once it’s set up it’s not too bad. And the price is cheap.
