Blink Mini 2 — Home Security & Pet Camera(s) with HD video, color night view, motion detection, two-way audio, and built-in spotlight — 1 camera (Black)

Amazing camera, easy set up, and most important, no batteries. Works perfectly where i needed it. Even in low light it has clear recordings. The sound quality appears to be pretty clear as i was able to correct my dog through the camera.

The Blink Mini 2 really impressed me for such a compact indoor camera. The HD video quality is sharp, and the new color night view is a huge upgrade—it actually lets you see details in low light instead of a washed-out grayscale. Motion detection is quick and accurate, and I love that it doesn’t constantly spam false alerts. The built-in spotlight is a nice touch too, especially if you want a little extra visibility at night without turning on a full room light. The two-way audio is clear on both ends, making it perfect for checking in on pets, talking to kids, or just monitoring what’s going on in the house. Setup was super easy—plug it in, connect to the app, done. For the size and price, this camera delivers way more than expected. Whether you want a reliable home security boost or just a way to keep an eye on your pets, the Blink Mini 2 is a great choice.

I bought two of these cameras and I’m really impressed with how versatile they are. One is set up in the living room, paired with my Blink Doorbell, and it acts as a chime. This is honestly my favorite feature, it works perfectly and makes sure I never miss someone at the door. It also doubles as a security camera when I’m not home, so it pulls double duty without taking up much space. The second one I installed in the garage for general surveillance. I often work on my bike out there, and sometimes I don’t hear the doorbell when deliveries arrive or friends stop by. Now the garage camera chimes when someone presses the doorbell, which is incredibly convenient. I love that both cameras serve as reliable chimes and functional security cameras. As a camera, the Blink Mini 2 performs really well for the price. The picture is clear, the field of view is wide, and the compact design makes it barely noticeable. Overall, I’m really happy with these and would definitely recommend them if you’re already in the Blink ecosystem or looking for affordable indoor cameras with bonus features.

These cameras are generally reliable 80% of the time. Very easy to download, install, and use the app required for them to operate using a mobile device. Very sturdy and stable when placed on shelves for quick installation if one does not desire to mount to wall and other fixtures. Simple to rotate and adjust to different angles. 4 out of 5 instead of 5 because system will randomly "kick off" some cameras from the network and indicate no connection available though other camera are connected to same WiFi and are operating normally. Sound and video quality during daylight is great. Night vision uses an "on-camera" light which is only useful to detect obvious movement. Bonus: this brand does not force you to watch commercials and Ads to access your live video feed after the free trial is over. If this camera is used for normal residential or commercial monitoring that is maintained by a human at least 1x per month this is a great system to purchase. If you plan to use this for a rental property or monitoring of a site that is not visited often you may lose connection and will be unable to "remotely" troubleshoot. Resetting often requires someone to physically unplug a cable.

I can’t say enough good things about this little gem. Clear, in color, quick notifications

I've been looking for a discreet and reliable indoor security camera, and the Blink Mini 2 has absolutely nailed it. Setup was a breeze – I plugged it in, connected it to my Wi-Fi through the Blink app, and it was ready to go in minutes. The app itself is intuitive and easy to navigate, allowing me to customize motion detection zones and notification settings with no fuss. The video quality is fantastic for such a compact camera. The 1080p HD resolution is clear, and even the night vision is surprisingly good, providing a detailed view even in complete darkness. I especially appreciate the wider field of view compared to the original Mini, it captures more of my living room, giving me better peace of mind. I also opted for the wired mounting kit, which was incredibly simple to install and allows for even more flexible placement options. Knowing I can securely mount it on a wall or ceiling is a big plus. The motion detection is responsive and accurate. I receive timely alerts on my phone whenever activity is detected in the designated zones, and the two-way audio feature is a convenient way to check in and even communicate with pets or anyone in the room. For the price, the Blink Mini 2 offers incredible value. It's a powerful little camera that delivers on its promises. If you're looking for a simple, effective, and affordable indoor security solution, look no further. Highly recommended!

Update--- so after I left a not so great review about the audio on the camera I had a very nice gentleman"Cooper" who reached out to me via email. He was a part of the blink team . And he walked me through a few troubleshooting steps to see if maybe it was user error that the audio wasn't working . However after just a couple different steps it was very clear that it was the camera itself. (It's possible I just happened to receive a defective one) . But Cooper made it right and very quickly shipped off a new Mini blink 2 camera. I received it within 3 to 5 days . Maybe even less than that as I was out of town a lot so don't quote me on the shipping time . LOL . I finally got it set up and it's working just as I expected a blink security camera to operate . I'm glad they have a team that cares about their customers experience with the products and very pleased not only with the camera but with the customer service thank you very much!! ------‐‐‐---------------‐---- I purchased this product a few months ago for my new home. I only recently was able to install everything. The video quality is good! Better than the blink mini I also have in the home. The one big downfall is that I can barely hear anything when reviewing a video. I can actually hear whats going on in my family room better when I switch to my office blink mini camera down the hall. This can't be how blink intended the new model to be??

If you are planning to use this as a baby monitor or a pet monitor I would NOT recommend it! I had a geeni indoor camera that I was using as a baby monitor so that when I'm in the other room folding laundry or doing dishes I could always see my 3 yr old daughter playing in the living room or watching a movie and make sure that she's good and doesn't get into anything that she shouldn't. The geeni camera worked great for over a year but recently stopped showing video which was probably my fault due to dropping it on a couple different occasions. I should have just gone ahead and bought another geeni because it worked perfectly for exactly what we needed which was basically just to log in and keep the live stream viewable from our phones or tablet just like you would with a baby monitor and also to be able to communicate back and forth when needed. We made the wrong decision, however, and purchased the blink mini 2 because it was on sale and also because we have a ring doorbell and an echo that are already set up with Alexa and we figured it would be easier to get another Alexa enabled device. Boy were we wrong! The only way you can view the live stream on the blink without a subscription is in 60 second increments for up to 5 minutes. Every 60 seconds the video shuts off and takes you back to the main menu unless you hit the green continue button that pops up in the last 5 or 10 seconds of video before it turns off. So you can hit the continue button every 60 seconds for up to 5 minutes and then start it all over again which is really inconvenient if you are trying to use it as a baby monitor while you're out of the room and want to make sure your kid doesn't try to go out the front door or fall and hurt themselves in that time. Because let's face it, as a stay at home mother, I've got tons of housework that still needs to get done and trying to get them done while also keeping an eye on my daughter is difficult without a monitoring system unless I want to force her to hang out in whatever room I'm in and watch me clean up but it's even more difficult if the monitor I'm using requires me having to hit a continue button every 60 seconds for up to a max of 5 minutes. I also cannot afford to add ANOTHER subscription cost every month for something I'm using as a baby monitor, especially with it having a 10 second delay! That 10-second delay could mean the difference in me getting to my daughter 10 seconds too late God forbid. That was another thing that the geeni camera was great for because not only did it NOT require a monthly subscription just to view the livestream video but it also never had hardly any delay at all and if it did it was only for a half of a second, if that! We thought since we are able to use our ring doorbell camera without a subscription but still view the live stream from it whenever and however long we wanted that it would be the same for the blink mini because they're all made my Amazon but that's not so obviously. The worst part is that we didn't learn about the 60 second increments until after the free 30-day trial subscription ran out which also meant that it's obviously passed the 30 days that Amazon allows for it to be returned! It sucks all the way around so don't make same mistake that my family did! I highly recommend looking into the geeni cameras if you're in a similar position as me and just need something you can view the feed from whenever or as often as needed. P. S. I forgot to mention that even with the subscription you are only able to have the extended live view for up to 90 minutes at a time. Now I was never out of the room for that long but if I needed more time than that, the geeni cameras don't have a time limit for how long you are able to view the live stream.
