Thank you, this review was not good. Didn't go into any detail about what the sync module is for, does local storage go to the camera or the sync module. Does the module need to be plugged in?
I was looking for a description of how (or if) one can query the camera from a remote location, which probably means a discussion of how the sync module interfaces with an existing wifi system. Also, why put up with a subscription plan if you say there is an alternative?
I liked your review on Amazon about the Blink security cams. I wanted to ask if you are required to have the subscription or if you can use the cameras without it? Thank you for your all the great informational videos!
I own 8 outdoor blink cameras and run energizer max. I got them in 2021 still working good. I reset them all from time to time. Helps them function better. My house is all eyes now. 8* cameras
Only Activates when it detects. Keep it on Armed. Other than that only when it detects motion. I set my cameras at sensitive 6. I run energizer max no problems.
I liked this video, it gave a lot of information in a quite short amount of time, it contained all the necessary info and even a comparison with another model. Keep up the great work
For a review of a camera, an obvious omission is showing what the camera produces. That would be more helpful than watching someone talk about the camera.
How do you mount these I wish you would have put that in your review on how to mount these outside most cameras come with a magnetic mounting bracket or a mounting bracket that you can screw on with a swivel head.
He says that objects over 10 feet away at night lose definition. Is that what others have found to be true? I'd like to know if I'm looking at a raccoon, possum or a skunk that may be further than 10 feet from my camera.
I had these four for a year. Great. Then I bought four more added them and suddenly this company turns off my recording and says I have to pay them a monthly fee. Wtf.
The speaker system on these is garbage. If you try to talk through your phone so the person on camera can hear you, they won’t hear you. You literally have to stand ear up to it to hear it. So that feature is basically non existent
@@ethanlculver cmon now… no political dumb stuff. And both are dumb, well all are, so 🤷♂️ why or how it’s his fault….. he didn’t MAKE them raise their fee’s. 🤦♂️
Don’t waste your money on this Blink garbage system! I’ve had it for about two years and have on and off issues with it and calling in Blink’s technicians is a joke can’t understand most of them and it sounds like they’re reading out of a book trying to figure it out as well!
I have had the same issues, I have good wifi signal and these cameras are not dependable at all, I have done everything customer service recommended and they still are completely unreliable
Blink Cameras and System are GARBAGE. I just had a bunch of tools stolen directly in front of an activated camera with full battery. Do NOT buy Blink Cameras, you will regret it.
DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY the sync module is garbage I had them a month and the sync module will not connect to wifi keeps telling me my Wi-Fi password is wrong when it's not look it up it's a known thing with listening to these ppl that get paid by blink or sent specific ones for free to leave good reviews you can get cameras on eBay for$30 that destroy these blink cameras
How do you review a camera without showing image quality...
Talk about it
You saved me 4mins
Hes a genius
Thanks for this comment. I'm not even gonna waste my time watching the video lol
I have a set and I don't have a subscription, you can use a USB for local store.
Thank you, this review was not good. Didn't go into any detail about what the sync module is for, does local storage go to the camera or the sync module. Does the module need to be plugged in?
@@ScienceBitch123 storage does go to module. Plug module into wall and plug flash drive into module.
Is it recording 24/7? Or only when it detects motion?
Can i access the recordings and save them from the ios mobile app even if the are on the storage synch module?
I have 3 of these with the sync module. They're OK a bit glitchy, field of view is so so don't waste your money on the subscription.
if you have a sync module no subscription required you can record to your usb drive and access over the application

Some cameras should have a olive drab desert tan or real tree camouflage scheme to blend in if you wanted to mount in a tree
Spray paint
Just buy some camo tape.
0:50 you can’t use rechargeable batteries in them.
As these are IP Cameras, you can set up your own hub with a RPI4 and motioneyeos

can i place it in a certain place where it has no wifi access and would i still be able to see live?
@@tikhy3545 No it needs to receive your Wi-Fi. Mine work’s about 60 ft away from my home. Your setting will tell you if your in range
@Outdoor Tonez Oh ok thank you very much, I need one where I can use it to spy on the police on where they are parked in a certain area😅😅
Video quality looks amazing thanks for showing us

If I’m using it wirelessly will it only record if it is connected to the WiFi?
If that red light is flashing all the time the camera isn't of much value. I could just buy a red flashing light if thats supposed to be a deterrent.
How do you mount these I wish you would have put that in your review on how to mount these outside most cameras come with a magnetic mounting bracket or a mounting bracket that you can screw on with a swivel head.
They come with a swivel mount. I just installed one yesterday
Small swivel mount base, two screws. Then you snap the camera on it. Simple
With the mount it comes with

Do i need the sync module to work the 5 camera set thanks
You need the sync module for any of the outdoor ones mate
Will they survive through the winter?
Id hope since theyre marketed as outdoor cameras
@@buffalobmf Yeah I saw the -2 but more of which of a consistent winter where temps drop below that.
Thanks for the review
Living in Alberta Canada we hit -40C and it was fine
I had these four for a year. Great. Then I bought four more added them and suddenly this company turns off my recording and says I have to pay them a monthly fee. Wtf.
So if I wanted NO monitoring service,, then blink is not for me. Am I right ?
You can monitor but not 24/7, only for about 5min then it shuts down "to safe battery".
The speaker system on these is garbage. If you try to talk through your phone so the person on camera can hear you, they won’t hear you. You literally have to stand ear up to it to hear it. So that feature is basically non existent
the USB is for powering if you don't want to use battery's
How the hell do u hook it up to iPhone 5g bullshit couldn’t hook mine up
Haha 😂
It doesn't have night vision. I was disappointed to find this out when i set mine up
It has. The night vision of a camera is usually set as auto in default.
So i need to subscribe to their plan just to use the camera?
No, you can store it with the sync module on a usb drive
This sounded just like an ad read. Some people have no shame
I asked on Amazon if the purchase comes with the control module and the seller won’t answer. To me this is a negative indicator. I will not purchase
The camera comes with the module, or else it wont work.
@@joshr9417 You can just buy cameras without the sync unit...I bought two bare cameras to add to my system.
@@eyellgeteven9928 How much were they?
Lol scan QR code for Wyze Cam v3
Go elsewhere if you want good night time sharp video. Day time is just ok. But most wired cameras are way better.
Try to breathe once in a while
Never had a subscription for storage for a year. Then suddenly they start charging me. Total bs.
Review what Review 🤔
Prices are $3.99/month & $39.99/year now……..grrr
lol crybaby
Biden's fault
@@ethanlculver cmon now… no political dumb stuff. And both are dumb, well all are, so 🤷♂️ why or how it’s his fault….. he didn’t MAKE them raise their fee’s. 🤦♂️
Or just get a usb drive and not pay the subscription 😂

No image quality review...
My “Weather” rated GEN 3 camera FILLED WITH WATER !!! Piece O CRAP
By the way the reason why your dislike ratio is so poor is because you didn't show the video quality, app, or subscription plan
Don’t buy these cameras even after buying you have to pay for the camera just for it to record
Wrong.
@@Gedan-Muse not at all
@@ItsZxBan Google for Sync Module 2, it has a USB Drive port for local storage my friend.
Not a good review at all. Very generic and not even that accurate
Slow down ffs

@Scorry what happen? Can you better help us how the camera failed? Did it not pick up any motion? Or was it pixeled so you couldn't see?
Did it not jump off the wall kick the sit out of them then phone the police 🚓
@@victorrsmk2 that's why I got the blink cameras. So I could get a notice and go handle it. 2 Blink cameras directly in the path never went off
Could it be that the person was moving directly toward the camera instead of on an angle or crossing the path?
I have this issue with my game camera.
Let me guess.. you don’t have one.. 🙄
