Blink Outdoor 4 XR - Wireless Smart Security Camera 2-Pack + Mini 2 Plug-in Smart Security Camera, Black Bundle (Sync Module Core Included)

No image notifications

Just bought these today. Found out after the fact that they do not offer Image Thumbnail Notifications. Requiring you to open the app and load the camera every single time you get a motion detected. Ring has had this feature for years. Apparently Blink used to have this feature but removed it.

TOTAL JUNK

Very slow. Will NOT stay connected!! I have fiber internet with an outdoor router and still VERY SLOW!! Pic is ok but nothing to brag about!! Wish I had never bought this crap!!

Exactly what I needed!

Great! It records. I can access it through the phone. You hear the sound.

Crisp, clean picture, but customer service, eh.

The cameras are easy to install and really do offer an excellent, clear view. The picture is even pretty clear at night. The only issues we had was trying to figure out the sensitivity levels of when the motion sensors were activated and sent a notice to my phone. The first weekend I received over 1000 notices, because they sensitivity was set to high. It was difficult to find a phone number to call. When I finally did reach someone, they did help me adjust the setting. Also, I could not view my...

Horrible

I'm pretty tech savy. I am, a technical director, so I better be tech savvy. I got the mini PT cam and the Mini 2. They were pretty easy to set up excluding the fact that no matter what I did the app could not seem to find the WiFi that was literally 10' away from me. The app found the network across the room. The one in our back alley. Even found the few across the street. Maybe had it found the network that was closest and fastest I wouldn't have gotten the insane lag that I got in live view. ...

A good DIY home security camera option.

Very easy to install and easy to get up and running. I like the fact that the wireless cameras use standard lithium AA batteries that you can get anywhere. The range is excellent, and I am using a combination of my home WiFi and the built-in Blink XR wireless communication. The devices clearly show you the signal strength. Lots of configuration options such as how long to record when motion is detected, areas to ignore (like trees that blow in the wind or a busy roadway), resolution, sensitivi...

Not the Best Choice For Outdoor Use

I intended to use this camera outdoors near my front entry since the box describes it as an "Indoor/Outdoor Plug-in Smart Security Camera. I learned that I have to purchase a special Power Adapter Cord made specifically for outdoor use, which I was prepared to do, until I read in the enclosed mini manual that it must not be mounted in direct sunlight. Additionally, so many of the operational settings were dependent on a paid monthly subscription that it renders the camera useless for my purpose...

Love the Added Light

I have dogs, but I also have a life so I like to see what my dogs are doing when I’m gone. The blink camera is a perfect solution for this. I already have a couple of older blink cameras, but there were areas of my home not covered. I set this up in the family room. Setup is extremely easy. You scan the QR code and up pop the instructions. In a couple of steps, you are up and running! I do wish it came with a longer cord, or at least an option for a say 10 ft cord because I wanted to mount...

Great plug in option

The New Mini 2 - Plug-in Smart Security Camera from Blink was sent undamaged from Lowes. The camera easily synced to my current Blink Module and was simple to set up through the app. This camera offers a ton of features that the regular camera does not. It has a high-resolution picture making for crisp pictures and tons of detail. I liked the spot light feature that could be set to come on when motion was detected or could be manually turned on through the app on my phone. The only drawback...

Excellent camera

So simple to set up. I already had a Blink doorbell and a back door camera so I was able to add the camera to my existing system. I wanted to see my back yard with this camera. I haven't mounted it yet because I want to test it over time for the best view. Right now, I've placed it in a screened in porch looking at the garden beds. I'm looking to catch a "critter" eating my veggies. You can see the garden and the path leading up to the door. You can see the person standing at the door. I ...
