Prime Day 2024 is officially here! Here is how much you can save on Blink security cameras.

Editor’s Note: Prime Day is great, but brands like SimpliSafe run promotions year-round. Find cheap packages in our guide to the Best Affordable Home Security Systems of 2024.

These days, Blink is known as a budget-focused security camera brand that offers a limited but versatile range of security cameras. We’ve personally tested three out of the seven available Blink models and configurations, including the super-affordable, $35 Blink Mini.

With Blink’s already low prices, it’s hard to imagine seeing the brand go on sale, but that’s exactly what happens year after year on Prime Day. You see, Amazon took Blink into the Amazon family in 2018, and ever since, Blink has always headlined Prime Day sales alongside Alexa and Ring. This year is no different. As soon as Prime Day 2024 (July 16 and 17) started, Blink dropped some amazing deals on individual cameras and bundles. Check them out below.

Blink may have only five security cameras, but there are lots of Blink deals for you to choose from. You can either take the discounts for individual cameras or bundle up multiple Blink cameras to save even more. Either way, you’d save a lot by buying on Prime Day 2024.

Almost all Blink cameras are on sale right now, even the Blink Mini 2 that was released in March 2024. In fact, we believe that’s the best buy right now, as the price is down to $19.99 – even cheaper than the regular price of the original Blink Mini. One advantage of the Mini 2 is that it has a built-in spotlight, allowing it to see in color at night. It’s also rated for outdoor use, although you’d need to bundle it with the weather-resistant adapter to be able to use it outdoors.

Just a word of advice: Prepare a shopping list. Blink cameras usually sell out fast, so if you can, place your order within the first few hours of the sale to ensure stock availability. During last Prime Day, some Blink cameras were already out of stock on the second day.

For those looking to buy multiple Blink cameras, Amazon also dropped bundled deals featuring two or more devices. These bundles received deep discounts as much as 60-percent.

Blink bundles represent significant savings even outside Prime Day, but during Prime Day, the savings balloon up. Blink is a home security brand that specializes in security cameras, so if you’re looking to commit to Blink, Prime Day is a good time to buy multiple Blink cameras.

Not sure which Blink camera to buy? Check out our Blink camera review for a refresher course of each Blink camera. And when you’re out hunting for deals, check out Blink’s normal-day pricing below to compare how much you can potentially save.

Blink is known for being affordable, which ironically, makes it harder to discern a good deal. A 20 percent discount sounds like a good deal, for example, but it translates to only a $7 savings when applied to the $34.99 Blink Mini. So it’s best to know Blink’s regular pricing as a reference point when comparing how much you’re saving.

You might have heard of Wyze Cam, the sub-$30 camera that instantly went viral after its initial release. The Blink Mini, Blink’s cheapest camera, is its closest competitor. At $34.99, it costs only a few dollars more than the Wyze Cam, and it boasts a sleeker and more modern design than the cube-shaped camera. (Check our Wyze Cam review to see what we mean.) In terms of features, you’re getting the same functionalities from either cameras: 1080p resolution, infrared night vision, two-way audio, and integrations with Alexa.

The Blink Mini becomes even more affordable if you buy multiple cameras. You’ll save $5 by buying two Blink Minis, cutting the bundle price down to $64.99. The same is true for the other Blink cameras. The Blink Indoor, a battery-powered indoor camera with a two-year battery life, costs $79.99, but a bundle of two Blink Indoors costs $139.99, a $20 discount. Here’s a more complete price list.

Note: The only Blink camera that doesn’t require a Sync Module is the Blink Mini.

Aside from multi-camera bundles, you can save more by bundling Blink cameras with Echo devices. Amazon owns the Blink company, and as such, Blink cameras work well with Amazon’s Alexa voice assistant. By pairing Blink cameras with an Echo smart display, you can unlock features like hands-free streaming and playback.

Blink is a company that flies beneath the radar, especially when it’s compared to Amazon’s other smart home company Ring, often the subject of privacy and surveillance scandals. So, we wanted to learn a little bit more about the company behind the cameras. Blink began its life in 2009 as Immedia Semiconductor Inc in Andover, Massachusetts, raising $800,000 from a Kickstarter campaign five years later. But it wasn’t until 2017 that Amazon bought the company for an undisclosed amount.1

So far, Blink has been relatively scandal-free, save for a security breach in 2019. However, Amazon released patches for this vulnerability quickly and had its users update their firmware ASAP. Since data breaches are pretty common, Blink still has a fine reputation when it comes to privacy and security.

You don’t want to miss Amazon’s Prime Day 2024 sale, especially if you’re looking for security cameras to protect your home. Blink, alongside its sister company Ring, is offering some of the best security camera deals you’ll find right now.
