Ease of use. These little cameras, along with their sync module, are so easy to set up and use. Just download the app onto your phone, put batteries in, connect the sync module to your wifi and connect each camera to the sync module. It may take a minute to "find" each camera, but if I can do it anyone can. Even mounting them is easy. All you need is an impact or drill with a Phillips head bit, and screws that are long enough. I mounted two on trees in the front yard with ease, and bought another type of mount that is wound around the back of my mailbox post.
Clarity. This system offer a much clearer picture than the wired system and with amazing motion detection. It even picks up a small dark gray cat using night vision and motion detection. That's amazing because I have a hard time detecting the cat at night. It blends in with the grass. Zooming in does not really help because it makes nothing clearer. I suppose that has something to do with the pixels, but that's above my pay grade.
Placement. You are only limited by two things: the signal strength of your wifi, and where you can reach. No wires or heavy cameras to handle while climbing a ladder. I have one of these at least 100 feet from the sync module and it's never offered to not work.
Value. Pair the cost of the system and the yearly fee of $100 ($109 including tax) and it's hard to beat, plus Amazon give a 10% discount on Blink products with the package. And the yearly fee for the package is not maditory. I chose to go with it because I am 150 miles away from the location where I have these and it just made more sense to be able to see and hear whatever is going on at any time.
One downfall. The only downfall I have found has to do with the audio. Do not expect to be able to communicate clearly with anyone through this system. First, there is a lag between letting off the microphone and when the other person's voice can be detected. It results in a lot of talking over each other and missing the first few words of the other person.
Helpful functions. You can easily set up and turn off and on notifications, recording schedules, motion detection and it's sensitivity, quality and length of recordings and night vision, and you can block out certain areas of the view so repetitive & expected movement (like traffic on a busy road) can be ignored.
I am extremely happy with the Blink system and products and I will recommend them to anyone who is interested in keeping their family and/or property safe. Especially those who want to protect their budget.
What I like about them: I can go to live view and check to see if I have packages. I can also see if someone walks up to my front door from another angle. I like that I can view clips that have been saved. ( I am still on the trial cloud option) My son said it was simple to install. To add a camera he told me just open the back and take the picture and the system adds the new camera.
What I don't like about the cameras: It has a delay, in other words, a person can walk up and grab a package and walk away before it alerts me. True I have the clip, but I would like for it to alert me as soon as it detects motion. I have a clip of someone removing a package from my front door, but I was not alerted that this was happening. It's nice that I can speak through the camera, but after the theft has happened it's not useful to them talk. When the mail is delivered, I get a notice but when I check the mailman is already halfway into my yard leaving. My son and I both played with the settings. At first, it was alerting me on motion, but the clip was a few seconds and stopped. My son asked which I prefer, instant notification and useless video or to have slow notification and a longer video clip. I chose the longer clip and that is how I saw someone walk up and take a large package and turn to walk away. This happened after dark so the night vision is not good. I will be buying the cloud package when my trial runs out. From what I am reading, the cameras will not work the same without the cloud. Yes, there is a module you can buy and a storage drive that is not included, To me, it's just easier to have it go to the cloud. I am hoping the settings just need tweaking to alert and record right away. Still, I am glad to have the cameras.
