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. Concerns have also been raised regarding the live view functionality and sensitivity settings.

    Don’t like the fact you view live in small clips and asked if you want to continue watching live. Camera is seconds behind live moment

      There is a limit to the continuous live viewing on the Blink cameras. Currently, you are able to view up to 5 minutes at a time in 30 second intervals. After 5 minutes you would have to initiate a new live view session. However, we value your feedback and will forward this information to the appropriate team at Blink.

    Due to illness, the system was set up on 4/29/20, a charging cord for the camera was not included and the system did not function properly.

      We are sorry for any misunderstanding as the Blink XT2 cameras are battery operated, you can certainly use a microUSB cord/adapter to power the cameras rather than using the included batteries however this is something that you would have to purchase. If you are having any issues with your Blink System we would suggest reaching out to our Tech Support Team directly to troubleshoot, support.blinkforhome.com

      Assuming a fairly standard home (single building, no unusually dense construction materials), the Sync Module should be able to communicate with Blink camera units up to 100ft away in any direction. If you are having some connection issues we would suggest reaching out to our Tech Support Team directly to troubleshoot.

    Let's be honest. You get what you pay for. I love that I can have multiple angles of my house. Not pay a monthly fee for storage. Not have to run wires in walls because it runs off my homes wifi. Now yes we all know of you get a hi tech system with its own dvr and monitor set up in a centralized location. With hardwired cameras. Here's what you have to think about. Do you have a five to seven bedroom house with a ridiculous square footage? Then probably the high tech system is for you. However if you want a system that you can have up and running by yourself in less then 30 min. This is for you. The cameras have a good picture quality they do have the few second lag on the live feed(wifi). You will have that always not a big deal. This system is not an always live view all the time. Your not going to get that for under $200. However if you ever have something go missing and are gone at work you will have video proof of it to have as evidence right on your phone. I live in a good area and have never had any problems. However you do not want to wait till something happens and then buy this system. It's under $200 and runs on WiFi and batteries. I personally love the pictures quality for the price. It's not so crappy that if someone does steal something you would never be able to see them. Also it's not 4k uhd lol it's a $189 dollar three camera system. For the money best bang for your buck. Nice looking cameras and really easy to install. I'm happy with my purchase I put them all up can check the live feed whenever set the range and sensitivity. It's very in depth for the price. I have installed the high end systems in big houses (electrician) so I know the difference between cameras. I also know a fellow (electrician) has this system and showed me it yesterday and I bought mine today. It's good enough to do what it needs to do. Give you piece of mind. Who knows maybe your neighbor will ask you to point the camera at their house like mine did. I guess trying to be discreet while screwing up cameras and he pulls in his driveway knowing I'm am electrician ask me new light fixture? I said no security cameras. He looked a little put off at first. I said I know we are in a good area but you never think you need it till you need it. Then he said your gonna put one on the side of your house and point it at mine right....um no lol. I wouldn't be surprised to see little black cameras outside his house soon. I feel the bad reviews are of people with unrealistic expectations. What?! I spent $200 I should have 4k and 24/7 live feed with no lag on a wifi system hmm... Yeah...right. now on the reviews of it not working idk about that maybe the wifi isn't fast enough. I know for the highest quality setting it says it's recommend to have 3mbps upload speed. That's not download it's upload remember to check that. My internet speed is 200mbps download and 50 upload (fiber-optic). So my cameras are fine. I do plan on buying the mounts to get a better angle for the doors. Watch some video reviews and if you think it's fine with what you want get it it's a good system for the price.
