    Doesn't pick up all the movement in the active zones. Only if your close to the camera. But it will pick up car lights at night even if they are in the zones you turn off. But the picture is good

    This Is an awesome surveillance system, that is alot less expensive than the ring. Very simple setup and install process. Very effective design and mounting hardware. Sleek and small design is great. I wish the alert was more instant, about 30 seconds wait time for the alert after motion is detected and motion stops

    I purchased a 5-camera Blink XT2 system to provide motion-detected video security for my property. The system was easy to install and configure. The mounting system works OK, but there are third-party solutions that protect and secure the camera devices better than the included snap-on mounts.

    It only pick up 20 feet from the camera. It should pick up animal movements but it is not. I would like it to. Maybe I need to adjust the sensitivity but that will use up the battery quicker I believe.

    • Brand response from Blink
      Posted .

      You may want to try adjusting the sensitivity on the cameras within the camera settings in the APP, this does sometimes take some guess and check depending on where the cameras are placed. We would also suggest adjusting the angle of the camera as well if possible, noting the best motion detection occurs when a subject walks across the field of view from one side to another rather than directly toward or away from the camera. If you continue to have any issues with the motion detection on your Blink camera we would suggest reaching out to our Tech Support Team directly to troubleshoot, support.blinkforhome.com

    I wanted cameras to replace my ridiculously expensive alarm system. The picture from the camera is good. The recorded video is not available right away once you receive the notification of movement. You have to wait at least a minute before you can watch the video. My biggest complaint is that the notification sound can’t be changed on an IOS device. The current sound is the same for all my notifications (e.g. mail, social media etc). Most of the time I don’t even realize that the cameras have picked up movement. At night I sleep right through them. I’m looking into other camera options at this point. I wish I had known this beforehand, I could have saved myself a couple hundred dollars.

    Set up was fast.. Pictures are VERY clear as is live video. Sound has a tad delay but don't they all. When testing them give them a minute or two to connect for the first time.. After that they work great. I have module on middle floor with cams downstairs one floor and upstairs one floor... Work great..

    Great Security Camera for Beginners

    This is a great security camera system for beginners. There is no monthly contract, and easy to set up. It uses a wireless system and your phone for viewing. You can look anytime remotely, or arm the cameras and get notifications. We have not had them long , but great for what we needed.

    We have had these a while now and I love them. The quality is great and for the price you can't complain. The only thing is there is a slight delay at times and only records for 1 minute, so you may miss something but so far these have done the job we got them for.

    This is my second set of these. Have had the original xt system since it was released and needed some for a second house so I picked up this xt2 system. As the title states they work very well with no issues. Easy to setup and I never have to reset. I never have any issues with these.

    Easy wireless set up, can drill the camera base outside into concrete with ease. Can have some problems with connectivity if module far from router, and camera far from module and camera far from WiFi (2 separate factors). Quality, sound and other settings are great.

    I was not sure about what to expect from this security camera system when I bought my first set. The three cameras and one module proved everything I needed. Great security camera system and easy to set. Good for a monitoring system and as a security system. This is my second set and it is as good as my first one.

    Great Camera for Renters

    As a renter I can't run cable through my exterior walls. Blink solved that issue. This system provides allot of peace of mind when away from home and the free storage is wonderful. I review clips as they come in so never even come close to running out of space. Plus there are lots of settings to help avoid nuisance motion triggers. Battery life is as advertised. Even with way above average usage my most active camera lasted several months and my other two have not needed changing. I have had zero issues in the MN winters. Connectivity has been solid. Never lose connection. One downside, I wish there was an option to keep recording until activity stops. But you can set retrigger time to as few as 10 seconds so that is not a huge lapse. Another downside, I wish the motion sensor had a scratch resistant coating. I scuffed one after a drop on original install but it has continued working without issue. You can hop on to view a recording in progress after the last update, fixing my only other complaint. Overall a great, affordable system.

    I love this camera! We installed one over our fish pond to watch the wildlife and another over a birds nest to watch momma take care of her eggs. The picture is clear. The hookup is easy - just need to download the app on your phone and connect the system to your wi-fi!

    Love the clarity of the cameras, and the ease of installation and use. Only reason for 4 out of 5 stars is because apparently Amazon/Blink decided to discontinue the XT2 and replace with the "Outdoor" camera. This was days after our purchase.

    Wanted to try something else other than arlo so I bought the blink single camera unit and used it at my marina so far so good with this camera. It has held up to the elements very well. Battery life has been OK depending on how much you use the record and live view.

    The cameras sound and captures are very sharp both day and night vision. I think it a great product for the price. The performance are definitely more than I expected. And, the Geek Team installers were very professional, polite and knowledgable.
