Customers are saying

Customers love the XT2 1-Camera Indoor/Outdoor Wire-Free 1080p Surveillance System's excellent camera quality, ease of use, and straightforward installation. Many also appreciate the system's price point and effective night vision capabilities. However, some users have noted that the battery life could be improved, and the motion detection may need refinement.

    Hard to rate when I haven’t been able to get help with installation. Geek Squad 800 number was infuriating. Local store has always helped. I’m hoping for an install date tomorrow as promised

    Cameras are easy to put up. Have issues loosing signal here and there. Unsure what the issue is. Also have Arlo cameras but tried to save money. Not bad for the price difference.

    Not a fan. Runs out of battery in no time. Manufacturer’s recommendation for use is almost impossible. Just not realistic

    We got this to use as a baby monitor. Unfortunately it doesn’t come with a stand and after searching online we found a different one that met our needs better so we returned this product.

    It's okay for recording short clips.

    Would be better if they would record 24/7 to the cloud. By the time it sees activity and starts, the activity could be over.

      We do appreciate the feedback, the length of the motion clip recordings can be adjusted to be anywhere from 5 to 60 seconds within the camera settings in the APP. The Blink cameras do not offer continuous recording though you can leave the system armed for motion detection for any interval of time.

    I have a lot of problems with mine. I can not put any on front of my house because of signal problems. So rather words I can't see my driveway. Not your fault.

    I can hardline one camera and anytime I try to hardline the second one it stops working so that one uses batteries

    These did not work out very well for me... though I have a friend who loves his. Sync was difficult, and picture quality was not what I anticipated.

    I ended up returning these because the app was mediocre. The interface was cheap and the cameras felt cheap. Bought the ring spotlight cameras instead.

    They activate with movement, and they only last up to 15 seconds. Not good for a 24/7 surveillance.

    The camera does a great job capturing motion but it is too slow when it comes to live feed. Live feed is also poor. It would freeze up or end too soon.

    Had issues with trying to get it to work with an echo show. The blue light that is extremely bright can be turned off so it won’t disturb a night time watch in the home.

    They start recording 3 to 5 seconds after movement. Thats not good enough. Next time i will buy a nest camera.

    It’s okay. Battery lasts long. The visual is ok. Would prefer another camera with better visual and live view. Way overpriced for just one camera.

    This camera does not have 24/7 functionality for recording. It records in snippets when and if you decide to do it. You cannot go back and review something that happened. I purchased based on wireless aspect and free cloud storage. Because you have to activate recording you might as well do nothing but look at app all day. Picture quality is fine if you just want to look at something from time to time.

      We do apologize for any misunderstanding as the Blink cameras record clips based on motion detection only. On the XT2 cameras you are also able to record while in live view. Any recorded motion clips and live view recordings can be found within the clip roll folder of the APP.

    Cheaper than others but had a camera fail after a years use. Wi-Fi module will not see camera even after resetting everything.
