Amazon is now offering up to 65% off its own devices this Prime Day. These include everything from Fire tablets to Kindles, TVs, Echo devices, and even home security gadgets. It’s also offering its widely loved Blink Video doorbell at a whopping 60% discount, which lets you pick one up for just $20 today, down from $50.
That’s basically nothing for a video doorbell that lets you see whoever’s on the other side without getting up from your couch, offers two-way audio for easier communication, and can easily run for up to two years on a single set of batteries. This offer is currently only available to Prime members, though.
Head-to-toe view, along with two-way talk
There’s plenty to appreciate here. This Blink video doorbell is pretty easy to set up. You can install it wire-free or connect it to existing doorbell wiring. With the former, you can pair it with another compatible Blink device (like the Mini 2 camera) to hear the alerts inside. With a wired connection, the doorbell will sound throughout your home.
You’ll receive instant alerts on your Blink app every time someone presses the doorbell. It shows you a complete head-to-toe view, which makes it easy to see both the visitor and any packages at your doorstep. Picture quality is crisp, and there’s also HD infrared night vision, which ensures you don’t miss any of the important details after the shadows fall.
The two-way audio is another thing to appreciate here. With this, you can easily communicate with whoever’s on the other side. It’s great for quickly greeting delivery drivers, letting someone know you’ll be out in just a minute, and also deterring potential intruders. These features are available for free, but if you’d like even more convenience, you can choose a Blink subscription plan as well. It sends really specific alerts about who’s out there, plus stores footage in the cloud for easy, remote access.
Alexa support means you answer the door, arm/disarm your smart home system, and more using just your voice! The three AA Energizer lithium batteries included in the bundle can keep your video doorbell running for almost two years! Basically, once the doorbell is up and running, you can just focus on the good parts instead of constantly worrying about maintenance.
It’s now down to only $20 at Amazon, after a nice 60% discount – for Prime members. The offer applies to both white and black color models. Your purchase also includes a 30-day trial of Plus AI, which lets you save/share clips in the cloud, receive AI-powered alerts for all your devices, and more.
