Pros & Cons
Pros
This is an excellent piece of kit. It's easily linked to the current blink, camera system in place. The quality of video clip is clearer than the cameras. This means you need other external cameras.
The set up is a simple process, the easiest way is to scan the qr code on the back using the blink app. It links easily to my existing sync module. The sync module is like the home router where all blink products will all connect to.
Cons
It doesn't work with the blink app and doesn't have a chime unit. Purchased bundled with an echo show, but it doesn't open when the door bell is pressed. The doorbell sensor doesn't pick anything up when reviewing the caller.
After installing no notifications for existing camera system working anymore. It says you will get a basic function without the subscription. I hope the app will rectify some of these issues with future updates.
It's not watertight and for a outdoor doorbell this simply isn't good enough. As for the locking tab… that is why i returned to amazon. I honestly believe it will cease working after a few months of winter weather.
This is very disappointing and makes the product feel unfinished. There's a reason this is £50. Cheap packaging. The gap mentioned on the previous review is valid.
Highlights
Quality
Notifications are fast & video quality is great.
Very impressed with the quality of the photos and video captures.
Totally satisfied with the blink door bell camera.
Video quality is great, very clear images and sound isn't bad either.

Motion detection was far too sensitive to begin with despite altering the field of view by removing areas from the settings

Had to turn the sensitivity down in the end as every car that went past the end of my drive would set it off

Bought this to go with blink security cameras could be better doesn’t sound very good on your phone could do with an internal chime if your phone is on silent
