    Easy to set up, I had it running in 7 minutes. App could be better but it works rather well. Camera was fine at zero degrees. Took a day or two to get the right settings. Range is not great but I didn't purchase it for it's range. I have it pointed at my front door so range is not a factor. What keeps me from giving it 5 stars is that the actual camera just snaps into the mounting frame which could allow someone to very easily steal it. I wish it at least mounted to the frame with a screw somehow. Obviously for the indoor version it would be fine. Overall I am impressed with this camera but I also had an issue with paying so much. I would have no problem if it were in the $80-90 price range.

    First of all this camera was priced perfectly for what you get. I utilize this camera for our outside shed which houses some valuable items. It’s indoor and the way the camera works is when the motion is triggered it starts to record. So there is a 1-2 second delay. The IOS app works great and has lots of features. The only downside is if you get a notification and you go to the app to watch the live video it will not record at the same time. So be careful on that part. I would like to see an improvement on the activation speed and possibly let the camera record whenever viewing live. Overall this camera works great and if they could fix those miner things it would be a 5 star camera. Great video quality night/day

    A friend recommended these when I was having personal safety issues. I caught things that I had no idea were happening and used the videos in court to secure a protection order. I have 4 of these now and know that no one is coming near my house and if they are, I’m alerted immediately and I’ve got video evidence and identification. This is one of those things that you can actually install by following the directions and it’s pretty simple. They have decent picture quality and sound. You can change settings such as length of video, infrared, picture quality, sensitivity, and even areas of sensitivity. It even alerts you that the batteries are low. There’s also online support if you have a problem.

    The reason I say that is because the cameras need a strong signal between the module that comes with the kit and your router. If your router is centrally situated where you want the cameras, you should be good to go. In my case I had to buy a wi-fi extender so I could put a camera on the side door of my house. That extra cost is why I subtracted one star.

    I love the design & features of this device for the most part, but it constantly looses connectivity...I even moved it to within 10 feet of my wireless router and this happens. Have not tried to call Blink yet to try & resolve.

    Easy to setup via wi-fi and the app, install (a single screw to mount it), and begin using. The fact that it uses lithium ion batteries helps with the ease of installation. The three cameras provide us with a great view of the front and back yards as well as our detached garage with options to purchase additional cameras at our leisure. I recommend a really strong internet signal and connectivity. We have 100mbps. It has a great 1080 HD picture during the day and a really well-lit infrared picture at night. The motion-sense works well but has a short lag before it begins recording. The motion sensitivity is easily adjustable through the app. Ample storage through the system and easy to review, save, or delete clips.

    Lithium batteries are long lasting and replaceable with AA lithium. They should last one to two years if you don't set it up for long clips. I like that it uploads clips to the cloud and notifies your cell phone when there is a motion that sets the camera into action. I also like the many helpful settings they have included to keep it simple. We had no problem following the instructions and had it up and running within an hour. You must have wi-fi within range of their main box (Sync Module) and each camera must be within range of that module. That module controls everything and you only need one for as many cameras as you want. The app is the best. You can control camera systems at other locations that have their own Sync Modules as long as those locations also have constant wi-fi. Your app will see the different Sync Modules and you can monitor multiple locations that way. You don't have to be wi-fi connected on your phone, but sometimes the motion clips you review will be slower to load without your phone getting good reception. The other thing I like is how I can adjust the sensitivity to eliminate pets roaming around. You can also set how long you want the clip to run and how long it takes to reset the motion detector. It will capture moving images with pretty good accuracy and detail and color in the daytime, and a blue light on the camera that will make night images be captured. If you have a light on in the vicinity of the camera, it will adjust to the lighting around it, so it is compatible with security lights you may have in play. It would be great if they would create some additional Blink products (owned by Amazon) that would allow you to have a Blink thermostat, garage door opener, door lock, alarm system, etc. that would be managed by the same app and sensor.

    I have not had any other system to compare this too, so keep that in mind. The cameras work great during the day. Their motion detection is good, sometimes they've even picked up my chickens from about 20 feet away. They can see license plates from a similar distance too. The automatic notifications work great too. So far the batteries haven't run out, so that's good. And I have some very high frequency areas with 20+ recordings in a day. There are some good customization you can do in settings. You can do a live feed if you want. The night time isn't great. It does work, but it isn't perfect. Maybe look at some youtube videos for examples. Also, if the lens gets wet in a rain storm the image will be super blurry until you clean it or it dries off. Very easy to set up, audio is pretty good too.

    First security camera

    I purchased this devices to cover my screened in front entrance to my house. The entire operation, app download/set up/usage, connecting camera to wifi, camera set up, and mounting was very straight forward. The Blink developers have really made it easy for the end user. I wanted to capture video of everyone that entered my foyer. I thought, because the camera is directed at the screen door, that the motion sensor would not be able to detect motion through the screens, and would activate once the door was moved. To my surprise the camera picks up the motion of the person walking to the entrance, opening the screen door and entering the foyer. Perfect! Couldn't be better. The picture is clear both day and night. You can easily see, with clear detail, facial features and hear any noise or conversations. You are then notified by your phone app, usually within a second but occasionally 2 seconds, and sent the video of what is happening in front of the camera. Another nice feature is you can have multiple devices connected, like my wife and my phones, tablets, computers etc. and they all get the instant notifications. And then another nice feature is the free cloud service with set it up. Some competitors require a paid subscription to their cloud service. I'm really happy with this purchase and will be adding camera's to cover our pool area.

    Bought this 3 pack camera for my vacation. I like that it is wireless with the option of using constant power but if you do use constant power then you lose the weatherproof ability. The cameras were bigger than what I thought they would be looking at the picture. The mounts that came with them are OK. Can't comment on battery life but at 720p, you get the estimated 2 years if you're not getting lots of motion. At 1080 it is less. Picture is good and clear. The IR is pretty bright washing out some of the picture at night. I lowered my setting. Installation and set up was easy and fast. Notifications are slow. They aren't sent until the video clip has stopped recording as opposed to being notified when it senses motion. Overall, I am pleased with them.

    The system has worked well since purchasing. The cameras were easy to set up and mount. The hub was easy to set up and link. The batteries last for several months, though I wouldn't claim more than 18 months. The cameras have stood up to the Chicagoland winters, rain, and hot summers, without fail. The only reason for 4 stars was that, not to make a bad pun, very occasionally a camera would go on the blink & need to be reset. The picture, video, and sound are great on the cameras. The range of coverage is excellent with the "fish eye" design. It has great scheduling, grid blocking, and other features. We have felt more secure, especially seeing who is at the door. I would recommend the silicon protective covering, though the cameras have lasted 1 year without damage until I purchased the covers. And are still going strong.

    I've been searching for wireless cameras to monitor the outside of my home but was only finding either very expensive or very unreliable options. I stumbled across these about a year ago and bought a pair with pretty low expectations. I had them set up within about 10 minutes and they've been working perfectly since then! Trust me these work and they are so easy to use! I've had to change the double a batteries on the camera at the front of my house because it does see a lot of motion but I have yet to get a warning about the batteries in my other 3 outdoor cameras. there's a bit of lag with the motion alerts when compared to my ring doorbell but they're very consistent and always come through a few seconds later. I definitely highly recommend these products.

    So I did some research between the Blink XT and Arlo cameras.....my recommendation to anyone looking for a security wireless camera understand what you need and want it for. The arlo has some nice bells and whistles but I have a home alarm system so the Blink XT was a cheap and great way to give me a viewing option for security. Super easy to install 1,2,3. Good camera quality not 4K but it’s not needed just up the quality in the settings and it’s a solid 720,1080. No extra alarm but has a great motion sensor and works great with the mobile app.

    I had an Arlo camera system but I found that it wasn't always the easiest to view the videos and the batteries constantly needed replacing. I tried a blink camera and I love it! The motion detection works well and I got notified right away when there is movement. The videos are easy to view and you can see well in daylight or dark. The batteries last much longer than my other cameras. Wish I had bought these from the beginning.

    This camera and wifi connection base system works great-- best of all it is cost-effective and super easy to install. Once you buy the hardware, there are no more costs (other than batteries, which will last a long time). Highly recommended. I looked into many home security systems. Best parts are: cost, easy installation, wireless, high resolution color, IR for night vision, motion detection, free online storage, and trigger notifications right to your phone. Recommended!

    There are better options out there but you will also pay more. For the price of this system I am very happy with it. Overall solid picture quality, easy to use, better life is good, and free cloud storage. The only downfall is you turn it on to record then you automatically get notifications. This is a pain if your home your forced to turn it off. I wish their was a way to keep it recording yet you could turn off notifications.
