Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

It is quite literally as simple as plugging in the sync module, downloading the blink app and connecting the module to wifi. They are very easy to use and the app is very user friendly.

The picture is amazingly clear however! The video playback is great. They use aa batteries that last up to 2 years.

The cameras help us to feel safer and more secure. And gives you peace of mind using an amazon branded camera.



Cons

They just aren't reliable, even with full daylight and fresh batteries. Cameras are unreliable, 2 occasions where images were needed, and the camera didn't work. The battery life is mediocre if you have them working to their potential.

The lag in these is absolutely atrocious, and when live viewing they give a time limit of less than 60 seconds. Lag time for live feeds, even after reset and deleted/reinstalled multiple times. The app is atrocious.

The trigger time for recording is too slow. Sometimes the camera will record because of being tripped by something much further away than the motion detection is supposed to sense. Even at the most sensitive settings, the cameras only start recording ...  Read More

Every 2 weeks it disconnects from the wifi router. Can't display image, can't display video, sync module offline.

These are a complete pain in the *. Just a very very disappointing product. This is terrible and would never recommend. This product is extremely disappointing.

    These are great littlecameras until theyre not


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Last winter as the temps dipped and rose and dipped and rose the camera stopped operating when the temps dipped


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I would get notifications saying it was basically too cold for them to operate typically around 2025 degrees


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    This is the problem with wireless cameras the batteries cannot take the cold and the cold weather causes the batteries to drain faster


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    We see very little of the sun during the winter months im talking at least 5 out of every 7 days sometimes more where it is gloomy overcast and dismal between december and the end of march or april


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Then theres the issue of snow accumulation if the solar panel is on the roof where the best sun exposure is and once again around here its not unusual to have a few inches of snow or ice or both accumulated in this area


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    So if you live in a climate like i just described you will want the wired cameras not these battery operated ones unless you relish working in the snowy cold weather getting the batteries charged up
