There’s nothing like the peace of mind of having an easily accessible security camera so you can monitor your home when you’re away. Is the dog chewing the couch? Is your cat on the counter again? Well, there’s an easy way to find out if you’re getting one of these new Blink Mini Pan-Tilt 2K+ cameras for $20, a good 60% off their MSRP.
We’ve seen affordable Blink cameras before, but they were static. This new model can rotate a full 360 degrees and also tilt up and down. That’s absolutely amazing for a $20 camera. You can control all movements from the Blink app so you can see the entire room. Video plays back in 2K, which is sharper than the 1080p offered by many budget cameras. This means faces are easier to recognize and small details are easier to spot.
When you’re not moving the camera, the auto-tracking feature will come in handy as the camera will follow a person or pet walking across the room on its own. At night, the camera uses a motion-activated spotlight and captures color images even in low light, but switches to black and white in complete darkness. Plus, if you see your pets misbehaving in the middle of the night, simply use the two-way audio feature to punish them instead of getting out of bed.
Setup is very easy and only takes a few minutes. Plug it in, place it on a shelf or mount it on a wall and connect via the app. The camera works with Alexa, so you can watch live video on an Echo Show quite easily.
You should note that Blink cameras may be affordable, but they require a subscription plan to save and share clips in the cloud, while certain AI features, such as Blink Video Descriptions or Known Faces, require another type of subscription.
