Make New York Post a Preferred Source A good camera system can help you keep an eye on your pet, child or just your home while you’re away.
There are a lot of camera options out there and plenty of brands make home security cameras. My first-ever home security product came from Blink — the Blink Video Doorbell — and since then, I’ve been a fan of the brand.
Right now, the Blink Mini 2K+, which comes with two cameras, is finally on sale for 60% off ahead of Prime Big Deal Days.
Available in two colors, black and white, the Blink Mini 2K+ delivers video in up to 2K resolution for a clearer picture.
The camera also features two-way talk with noise cancellation, so you can remind your pet you’re coming home soon. The design itself is small and compact, and you can place it almost anywhere in your home. Just plug it in, set it up and you’re ready to go.
If you have a Blink Subscription Plan, you can also receive Smart Detection alerts, like when a person or vehicle is detected. The camera offers Color Vision in low light, too, making it easier to keep an eye on your home after dark. Just note that some ambient light is required for color footage; otherwise, the camera may switch to infrared black-and-white night vision.
The Blink Mini 2K+ also has a built-in spotlight, along with a siren, giving you another way to see and respond to what is happening.
If you’re heading out for the holidays or just need a camera system to help keep an eye on your pets or children while you’re at your 9-to-5, the Blink Mini 2K+ is a great pick, especially now while it’s on sale for under $30.
With built-in spotlights, motion detection and live video monitoring, this security camera helps keep your property protected around the clock. Early Prime Day deals are a smart way to expand your smart-home setup for less.
Over 4,000 Amazon shoppers purchased the newest Ring Floodlight Cam Pro in the past month, and we don’t blame them. With low-light vision and retinal 4K video, you’ll be able to see what’s going on outside your home or business 24/7.
Whether you want to keep an eye on your pets when you’re out for the day, or need to be 100% certain you unplugged something before you left the house, the Ring Indoor Cam Plus will be your peace of mind right there on your phone.
No subscription is required for basic features like Live View. However, cloud recording and AI detection features require a Blink
No, this is a wired plug-in camera that requires continuous power using the included USB-C cable and power adapter.
Yes, the camera is weather-resistant, but you must purchase the separate Blink Weather-Resistant Power Adapter for outdoor operation.
