- The battery life is not great. I had to plug them all in to make them actually usable without constant maintenance. They work fine when wired.
- The camera sensitivity options are not good. They give you a map based on a snapshot to select from a 5x5 grid of where to monitor activity. The issue is that 5x5 is too big. I wish they had finer granularity (7x7 or greater would be nice). The other issue is that the snapshot is based on a certain time of day. So if you use the snapshot from daytime, the sensitivity at night time is screwed up and vice versa.
I have a Nest doorbell camera, which is faaar greater in every aspect. If it was economical to switch from Blink to Nest at a reasonable cost, I would do it 100%. But Nest is really expensive, and requires a subscription. My Blink plan is grandfathered in with free cloud storage... so I will remain until the camera's die (2 have already died out of 5).
