Product Information

Since Blink uses narrow-angle lenses in their cameras, they’re best suited for monitoring specific targets, such as doorways and entrances, because objects will appear larger and more detailed within the image. Both Blink and Arlo have a number of handy features that can reduce the number of false-positive motion alerts you receive; such as assigning activity zones so you’re not notified unless motion is detected in these areas, and scheduling when the camera should be monitoring for motion and when it shouldn’t. We’ve rated the Blink Mini as one of the best cheap security cameras on the market and we were extremely impressed with its video quality, audio and motion zone customisation as stated in our Blink Mini review. At the risk of rehashing old grievances, night vision was pretty weak in my hands-on Blink Outdoor camera experience.

Install wire-free with powerful battery life and chime app alerts or connect to your existing doorbell wiring to also sound your in-home chime. If you’re having any issues with your Blink Cameras, it’s recommended to first power cycle your Blink system and router. I replaced the battery cover and waited a minute for the camera to connect and go through a firmware update before taking it outside and mounting it on my backyard deck.Alongside the main smart home security cameras, Blink also offers floodlights and solar panel mounts that support the Blink Outdoor camera with charging and extra lighting.

In her spare time, Beth enjoys running, reading, baking and attempting craft projects that will probably end in disaster! Below is a snapshot of pricing for Blink cameras, keeping in mind that the cameras also come in 2-, 3-, and 5-pack systems, if you choose. The setup process is a really good time to get to know your camera and make it work for your space, so take your time and have patience here.Like all other Blink devices, the camera works with the Blink Home Monitor app (available for Android and iOS). Finally, the Neighbors button takes you to a screen where you can download the Ring Neighbors app, which lets you receive safety alerts from your neighbors, local police, and the Ring News team.
