    I'm pretty awful with technology. This was the easiest security camera setup and install imaginable. Had all 3 setup and ready to use in 20 minutes

    The blink camera has good quality but the nighttime picture isn’t great so if you want something to see at night clearly and that will last longer don’t get this. It says two years battery life but to get a decent vision during the day and night the batteries last 2-3 days at max. I recommend to stay away and pay a little more money for something better

      You may want to check that you have the IR Illuminator enabled within the camera settings in the APP, you can adjust the intensity as well. If you continue to have issues with the nighttime vision we would suggest reaching out to a member of our Tech Support Team directly to troubleshoot. support.blinkforhome.com

    Unreliable and Overpriced,Worse Cams I ever bought

    First off, I am pretty disappointed that Amazon is putting their name on such an inferior and overpriced product. I bough this kit December 1st of 2019 and I threw them out a couple days ago. I owned many different cameras like this, from $25 to a couple hundred a piece. What did I like: - I liked the ease of setup. Install app, plug in camera, use app to pair each camera with the sync unit, which connects to your wi-fi - Form factor What I don't like: - Forced and automated firmware updates without notification - Pricey - Sound quality is terrible - Picture quality is ok - You need two hands and a good amount of force to open up the cam to add/remove the batteries and/or deactivate the blue led light while recording. You need to push, squeeze and pull at the same time. Not sure who thought about the mechanism but there is other ways to do this while still retaining a water proof seal. - Sync unit doesn't have a battery backup! Power goes out, the batteries in the cams won't help you, because the sync unit doesn't have any. Experience: - Initially you need to open the cams to add the batteries (2 each, included in the package). Opening the cams is a pain. - 2 out of three cams record whenever they feel like, no matter how your setup in regards of sensitivity, etc is. The one completely stopped recording. I changed the batteries, even though the indicator said batteries are OK, it worked for a couple days, then went back to unreliable recording. - Watching the cam live feed is about 2-3 seconds delayed. When you wave for instance, wait a few seconds and it shows you waving. What is that all about, no matter what the picture quality is! - I had to buy a UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) to compensate for the lack of batteries in the sync unit in the event of a power outage. - Retrigger time between recordings is 10 seconds minimum!? - Max recording time is one minute each clip. So continuous live recording is NOT possible with these cams. Symmary: For something that is supposed to be used to help protect you and your property, this camera kit is an absolute fail. Every time I needed to check something important, there was no footage of it. One package was stolen off of my porch and who didn't record the footage? The Blink camera didn't record it, but recorded a squirrel, earlier that day. The irony ... :). Back to the earlier mentioned 'Retrigger Time'! What does that mean? This is an important one! "Time after a motion event during which the camera will not detect motion." You have to be kidding me ?! Let's say your camera just recorded a clip, it will not record another clip until after a minimum of 10 seconds have passed. That's usually the time frame stuff happens :). That's Murphy's Law. Of course all this info is nowhere to be found in the description or the packaging of this product. I have to be honest, Amazon is behind these cameras which was a big selling factor for me. So far I have enjoyed everything Amazon, this product changed that and my opinion about Amazon in general. I am really not sure why this camera set got such a high rating. Even functioning as intended, the flaws are way too many. Let's face it you buy this product for piece of mind, of which the mind you will end up loosing with a terrible product like this. I am not a fan of bad reviews. If I don't have anything nice to say I don't say it at all. This one is for awareness. If you have anything valuable or precious you like to get these cameras for, DON'T! You get better cameras that do what they are supposed to for the same price and lower.

    These cameras offer the convenience of wireless at a great price. I experienced some trouble with the base unit's range even though the camera was less than 30 feet away. Also some active zone triggers did not arrive at my cell until an hour later. When they work it's great but the other times it has taken over an hour for notification. Bottom line, I am having difficulty relying on this product for the security of my home and family.

      The Blink cameras do turn on instantly once motion is detected to record a video clip however there are times when the notifications may be slow and this is most times due to the strength/speed of the wifi or also how long you have the clips set to record. If you continue to have issues with this I would suggest reaching out to a member of our Tech Support Team to troubleshoot.
