So the company reach out and offered a new camera free of charge, was sent very promptly and haven’t had any type of issues
I really love the camera it gives me a peace of mind and I was so happy the company was able to reach out and fix the issue what great customer service !
—————————————————————
It was working great. Bought it in the beginning of February and by April once a subscription was bought it stopped working. I called customer support and till this day camera remains offline when trying to order warranty replacement all I get is “troubleshooting instructions” missed the return window now stuck with ineffective device and am not getting help
Rather that replace all my Wyze cams at once, I decided to to get a few Blink minis and set them up for double-coverage in the areas most important to me -- front and back doors, and my dog. I set a price watch on the Blink minis, hoping to get them at a sale price, and sure enough, I was soon alerted to a 3 for $40 deal and grabbed it. I fumbled a little in setting them up, not understanding the networks that were trying to connect, but I eventually guessed my way through it and got the first camera working. Oddly enough, Wyze had another big system failure right in the middle of all this, so getting all 3 Blinks going last night has already paid off. As for how the Wyze and Blink systems compare...
The Blink mini and the app are a little lacking, to be honest, at least when compared with Wyze. Both cameras have motion detection, night vision, and 2-way audio, as well as an available $10/mo subscription plan (to save clips from an unlimited # of cameras). But while Wyze cameras allow you to continuously record to micro SD without a subscription or additional expense, Blink mini will only record clips to SD if you spend another $50 on their Sync module. A Blink subscription, however, will record 10-second clips when it detects motion and save them for 60 days on the cloud, no SD card required. (10 seconds is the default. I finally found the setting to change it to 30 seconds, which is the max.) But a Wyze subscription will automatically record longer clips, anywhere from 12 seconds to however long the motion continues (at least a couple of minutes, from what I've seen) and store them on the cloud for 2 weeks. So while Wyze doesn't store them as long, they do record ALL the motion, even if it goes way longer than 30 seconds. Plus, Blink requires a 10-second break between clips, whereas a Wyze subscription just immediately starts recording, even if it's only been a couple of seconds since the previous motion ended.
Additionally, Blink just isn't as feature-rich as Wyze. Blink has person detection if you're on a subscription plan. Wyze does, too, but Wyze also has package detection, friendly face recognition, and pet detection. So if you want Wyze to notify you when someone drops a package at your door but not if someone just walks by, it can. Blink can't do that. Wyze also allows you to set rules and schedules. For example, I have my Wyze cams scheduled to turn on notifications Mon-Fri at 7:30am (when I leave for work) and turn them off at 6:30pm (when I get home). The cameras are still on and recording motion clips to save on the cloud 24/7, but they're not sending unnecessary notifications when I'm home. Meanwhile, every moment, still or motion, is recorded to SD card -- and I didn't have to spend $50 on another module. With Blink, I can only schedule times for the cameras to be on and looking for motion, or I can snooze the notifications for up to 24 hours, but I can't actually schedule it not to send notifications at specific times.
So what's the verdict? Blink mini is a good, basic camera at an affordable price, especially if you wait for it to go on sale. The $10/mo subscription is worth it to save video clips, and the picture/video quality is good. If you're already deep in the Amazon ecosystem with Ring doorbells, Echos, etc., then the Blink mini is a nice little addition. But if you're not already devoted to Amazon devices for the home, Wyze offers more for essentially the same price. All that said, I'm not disappointed with my purchase. These 3 Blink minis allow me to keep an eye on things even on the rare occasion that Wyze fails me.
