Security cameras are a must-have gadget these days. Not only can they help you keep tabs on your home, but if you're like me and shop online all the time —they're also great at tracking your packages.
If you're looking for a reliable security camera, right now you can get the Blink Battery Doorbell 2K+ for just $47 at Best Buy. That's $32 off and an epic deal on a doorbell we said Blink fans are going to love.
The Blink Battery Doorbell 2K+ is the first Blink video doorbell to capture 2K video. (Previous versions only shot in HD). It comes with a Sync Module Core, which offers local storage and better connectivity.
The doorbell shoots 2K video with a head-to-toe field of view, meaning you see the person at your door and the package they're holding, not just a face floating in the frame. In our Blink Battery Doorbell 2K+ review we said overall video quality is good. Clips during the day are sharp, but suffer from some pixelation whenever an object is moving. However, the moment the movement stops, it goes back to being really clear.
At night, when the infrared sensor is in use, there's some pixelation around all objects, even when there's little motion. That said, the clips are clear enough to see what triggered the alert and, if needed, who is at your door.
In terms of battery life, Blink's estimates for the doorbell range from 16 to 22 months, depending on your video quality setting. At the 2K (1920 x 1920) max, you can expect up to 16 months before the batteries will need to be replaced. At the lowest setting of 960 x 960, you'll get up to 22 months.
Overall, the Blink Battery Doorbell 2K+ checks a lot of boxes when it comes to affordable, battery-powered video doorbells. It has 2K video, long battery life, local storage option, and affordable subscription plans (if you opt to go down that route).
