Reviewers are pleased with how easy it is to set up and talk of it being an “upgrade” in terms of better night vision and picture quality.

Criticism were over someone finding it fiddly to install and another having problems with the bell ringing.
Half price Blink video doorbells
Blink is also offering 50% off in Prime deals including for the Blink Video Doorbell with two-way audio and HD video. It works with Alexa and shoppers can bag it for £29.99 today instead of £59.99 here.
The weather resistant video doorbell has got a 4.1 out of 5 rating from over 20,000 Amazon customer reviews. Positives are on how it doesn’t have wires and is easy to set up.
Those critical of the product moan about sound quality and not being able to watch footage in real time. Aaron said: “The inability to view the camera live while motion is detected / during recording until the recording period is over and the cooldown period is activated, is a major drawback. This defeats the primary purpose of having a doorbell camera, as immediate access is crucial for security.”
