## What reviewers say

**Blink Outdoor 4** — Three whitelisted testers (Tom's Guide, TechRadar, and PCWorld/TechHive) went hands-on with the Blink Outdoor 4 and agree it's a top budget outdoor cam: cheap, tiny, easy to set up, with class-leading battery life powered by two AA lithium cells. All three flag mediocre 1080p image quality and key features locked behind a paid Blink subscription. TechRadar and PCWorld both note the manufacturer's two-year battery claim cannot be verified within a review period. (3 sourced reviews.)
