Blink is Amazon's budget-friendly security camera brand, and it goes on sale multiple times during the year. Blink is great for first-time smart security camera users because it's simple, effective, and cheaper than the competition. Right now, Amazon is having a big sale on most Blink camera products, with discounts up to 43% off.
If you're not completely sure if you should go with Blink or Amazon's other brand, Ring, you can read our head-to-head breakdown of their video doorbell cameras here. Blink will be a better option for those looking for a budget-friendly choice, while Ring is better for those who want the best features and care about specs.
Here are the four products on sale:
-
Blink Mini $19.99 (originally $29.99)
-
Blink Video Doorbell $34.99 (originally $59.99)
-
Blink Outdoor 4 Floodlight Camera $84.99 (originally $129.98)
-
Blink Outdoor 4 $58.49 (originally $89.99)
The rest of the deals you'll find are multiple packs of each in different colors and bundles of them in different combinations. The discounts get better the more of each Blink product you buy. The best thing to do is figure out which Blink cameras you want first and then find that bundle or pack.
If you're starting your Blink security camera from scratch, the Blink Whole Home Bundle for $119.97 (originally $189.97) is a great place to start. It gives you the Blink Video Doorbell, a Blink Outdoor 4, which is one of the best entry-level security cameras you can get, a Blink Mini, and a sync module, which connects Blink cameras to the Cloud servers, allowing you to store video locally, manually record, share live video footage (but no live view recording), and control up to 10 Blink devices with the Blink Home Monitor app.
Keep in mind that the Blink system is not compatible with Google or Apple’s smart home system. You will also need a Blink subscription to use all of its features. The Blink subscription plan starts at $30 a year for the Blink Basic Plan. You can also get the Blink Plus Plan, which runs you $100 a year with more features, the most important of which is having an unlimited number of devices hooked up to your account.
