It is an affordable yet very useful
I have been using the Blink Mini smart security camera for approximately three years, and I have purchased several units of this model. I highly recommend it, as I have found it to be one of the best options available for security cameras. It works very well, is easy to install, and the app is simple to use. The image quality is good for the price, and it gives me peace of mind to be able to monitor my home when I am away. It is an affordable yet very useful product, which is why I will always continue buying it. It is well worth it.

Good cam wonky app
Great camera for the price! The video quality is clear, setup was simple, and it does exactly what I need for basic home monitoring. It’s a solid, affordable option if you’re looking for something reliable without spending too much. The only downside is the app—it can be a bit wonky at times. That said, it’s more of a software issue than anything with the camera itself. If they gave the app a little more attention, this would easily be perfect. Overall, still very happy with my purchase! Battery life is good just needs to be plugged.

An Unforgettable 5-Star Experience!
I never thought I would be writing a review for a security camera, but after my unforgettable experience with the Blink Mini, I couldn't resist sharing my story. From the moment I set my eyes on this compact indoor plug-in smart security camera, I knew my home would never be the same again. Unboxing: When the package arrived, I eagerly tore it open like a kid on Christmas morning. Inside, I found the Blink Mini, beautifully wrapped in its pristine white color. I have to admit, the camera itself looked adorable, and I couldn't help but chuckle at its tiny size. It was like a cute little spy on a mission to protect my home. Easy Setup: Setting up the Blink Mini was an absolute breeze. Even for a technologically challenged person like me, it took no more than a few minutes. I plugged it into an outlet, connected it to my Wi-Fi using the Blink app on my smartphone, and voila! I was ready to go. It's worth mentioning that the app was incredibly user-friendly, guiding me through the entire setup process with clear instructions. Crystal Clear HD Video: The Blink Mini boasts an impressive 1080p HD video quality, and boy, does it deliver! The first time I viewed the live feed on my phone, I was blown away by the clarity and sharpness of the image. It felt like I was watching a high-definition movie, except this one was starring my own living room. The camera captured every detail, from the texture of my couch to the fur on my pet's back. Night Vision Magic: Nighttime is when the real fun begins with the Blink Mini. Its advanced night vision feature turned my house into a stage for some comical shenanigans. I caught my mischievous cat, Mr. Whiskers, attempting to conquer the refrigerator at 2 a.m. The night vision mode illuminated the scene in eerie green, giving Mr. Whiskers an otherworldly glow as he tiptoed across the kitchen counter. It was like watching a feline James Bond. Motion Detection Follies: The motion detection feature of the Blink Mini had its fair share of funny moments. Every time a fly buzzed around the camera, it triggered an alert on my phone. It was hilarious watching myself rush to check the feed, only to find out it was just an insect causing all the fuss. I even started a game with my friends, betting on how many false alarms the camera would give me in a day. It was all in good fun, and it never failed to provide a good laugh. Two-Way Audio Pranks: One of my favorite features of the Blink Mini is the two-way audio. Oh, the pranks I pulled on my unsuspecting family members! I would wait until they were in the living room, then remotely activate the camera's audio. Their puzzled expressions as they tried to figure out where the voice was coming from were absolutely priceless. I must admit, I took great pleasure in pretending to be the voice of their conscience. Works with Alexa Magic: Being able to control the Blink Mini with Alexa was a game-changer. I could simply ask Alexa to show me the camera feed on my Echo Show, and in an instant, my house became a live reality show. My friends were in awe when they witnessed this magical interaction. It felt like I had just stepped into the future, where security cameras respond to my every command. Conclusion: In conclusion, the Blink Mini exceeded all my expectations. It provided top-notch security for my home while offering endless entertainment. The easy setup, exceptional video quality, night vision hilarity, motion detection follies, two-way audio pranks, and seamless integration with Alexa made it a true gem. If you're looking for a smart security camera that will keep you safe and entertained, I wholeheartedly recommend the Blink Mini. Trust me, you won't be able to wipe the smile off your face!

Good Spy Camera
The camera does pretty much what they claim. I bought it to spy on my mother's care givers, but never set it up as such. Recently I set it up in conjunction with two outdoor cameras to watch over my house while I took a trip. The app was fairly easy to set up, and they remote arming and disarming worked adequately. The audio is relatively poor, but, with fine hearing, can be understood. Resolution is good, and I have it set to record directly to a USB stick and do NOT use the cloud storage, thus, in theory, limiting Amazon's access to my data. I have this camera on top of a china cabinet to monitor the front door. When armed it usually detects if the door opens. My sister also monitors my cameras and sometimes will speak to me over this one when I come in the door. Deficiencies: 1) This camera is powered by a USB cable and must be plugged in to a powered USB connection or power block. This means that, unless that connection is on a UPS, if your house power goes out, the camera ceases to function. 2) Amazon can, and does monitor the camera (at least the audio) and will use that information for their own ends. Today I came in the door and my sister talked to me through the camera and I told her I had bought 120 lbs of birdseed. Afterwards I signed on to Amazon to order some items, and the "Recommended for Me" area at the bottom of the page was nothing but BIRDSEED! I do not know if the Amazon AIs also monitor the video but they are certainly tuned into the audio! Bottom line: A nice little camera that will perform as advertised, IF YOU DON'T MIND AMAZON LISTENING IN. As a result, I strongly recommend that you do NOT have the camera aimed at any place where you would perform anything of a sensitive nature, such as a safe combination, or a computer screen where you will enter usernames and passwords, just in case they monitor the video as diligently as they do the audio.

Easy Setup Camera with Solid Performance
I used this Blink Mini indoor camera in a second home, and the setup was quick with a user-friendly app that made it easy to get running. The video quality is clear both during the day and at night, which covers basic monitoring needs well. The design is small and sleek, so it doesn’t stand out much in a room. This is my second set, and the experience has been consistent across both. I haven’t run into any issues with performance so far. Overall, a reliable and straightforward option for indoor security.

5 years and still going! Practically puppy proof
I have been meaning to leave this review for a while now and finally have a free moment. We have had our blink cameras for 5 years now. I finally gave up on the Furbo dog camera due to constant connectivity issues. The little Blink cameras have very rarely given us that grief. If I unplug and move to different spot, no problem. BUT the most remarkable feature of all is that it has survived NUMEROUS attacks by our new puppy. It’s really quite unbelievable. I purchased replacement cameras for the inevitable day that it succumbs to the abuse, but those are still sitting in the box! I highly recommend this product and it has given me a lot of peace as I check in on my little guy throughout the day when we are at work. We keep it out of his reach, or use it when he’s crated. But anyone who’s owned a puppy knows they are quick and impulsive little creatures. Great product and well worth the price.

Great customer support
I really like the blank. The cameras are fantastic. They work really really well. They’re easy to install easy to use. I use mine every day 365 days a year. The company provides very good service if you have a problem.

Mixed feeling on the mini
I have mixed feeling on the mini Blinks. I have the Blink outdoor units as well as the doorbell, all of which work fine and have done so for a couple of years. In fact I have a few that I have never installed. I ordered the mini's for use indoors to monitor the front door and pets. Unfortunately for some reason they occasions disconnect and require being reset (unplug from the AC and plug back in). This works and sometimes it doesn't. I actually replaced one that I could not get to reconnect even after doing a hard reset and reinstalling thru camera in the app. I had to do this twice and on the third time it went out, I assumed it was the camera and bought two more. After less than a month, the new camera started doing the same thing. I replaced the USB cable and the power block thinking that might be the cause but then it happened again. I did not think it might be the sync unit until the other camera located in another area started doing the same thing (both cameras at the same time). I unplugged the Sync unit and waited and they started working again, but I did this previously when the first camera went out before buying a new one. It's not my network or location of the camera (distance from the sync unit) since I am in a small Condo and each camera is less than 30 feet away from where the sync unit is right next to the router. My next step will be to replace the sync unit, but my patience and satisfaction with the Blink mini product is wearing very thin. The App could also use some work, as it is very basic and very disappointing that they have not made many upgrades in terms of features. How difficult would it be to add a feature to allow your cameras to arm automatically at a preset time like even the ridiculously name Chinese branded products that I wouldn't trust. I'm not at a point where I want to abandon the product completely since I have so much invested in it, with many cameras between my house and condo. Like I said the outdoor units have worked flawlessly, despite having given me low battery warnings on occasions, yet they are still operating without any issues after several years of being deployed. I don't arm them that often and they are not designed to be armed all the time, otherwise the battery will be dead after a few days due to movement. They are great for monitoring door activity where there should be none. With the issues I've experienced with the mini's so far, it is hard for me to recommend them, particularly since I bought new cameras for what appears to be no reason at all. The next time the stop working and the LED starts flashing, I'll replace the sync unit, but after that, the mini's will go in the trash as well as the Blink reputation. They are too unreliable for monitoring activity indoors particularly your front door when it is connected directly to AC and can be used continuously without having to worry about batteries. The image and night vision quality are good, but image rotation is limited. You can flip the image if you mount the camera upside down, but not when the camera is angled. If Blink fixes to connectivity issue between the sync unit and the minis, and includes the ability to for the software to automatic reorient the image so that it always right side up, this would be a great low cost solution for in home monitoring. As it stands, they are unreliable. I'm not going to replace the sync unit pre-emptively, but once the issue reoccurs as it did last week, I'll do so and then wait to see if it happens again. I'll update my review at that time, otherwise I'd suggest using the Blink indoor unit and just connect it to the AC vs. using it indoors on battery power. The mini are small enough not to be an eye sore or immediately noticed. YMMV YMMV
