Detailed Test Results

Video Quality: Daytime pictures are as sharp and clear as we've seen, which means you can see the details and subtle patterns in the image. At nighttime, the video is very good: quite viewable, with a fair amount of brightness and clarity.

Data security: This model has excellent security. It has among the best set of protections for your recordings and personal data. It uses strong encryption. The firmware has safeguards against known vulnerabilities. And the firmware updates from Blink are secure.

Data privacy: Blink offers a sub-standard level of control and transparency over your data. They are not doing as good a job as many others are with regard to collecting only necessary data, giving you control over its use, and limiting how your data is shared or sold.

Response time: This model sends its alerts to its app within 5 seconds on average, which is very quick, and helps you be very responsive to situations.

Smart features: It works with smart-home systems such as Amazon Alexa.
