This video outlines the reasons I regret replacing my Blink video doorbell with the Ring video doorbell.
The main reason for me is the monthly subscription to access stored video. I understand both Ring and Blink require subscriptions but Blink offers specials from time-to-time of FREE storage subscriptions. We do not pay Blink any monthly fee for our storage.

The Ring subscriptions have gone up by 42% here in the UK, 2 years ago, they were £24.99, last year £34.99, this year coming £49.99 - no way am I paying that increase!

No way! I also looked into saving locally but since neither the Ring nor the Blink get a local IP, that seemed prohibitive.

@@FieldGuidetoDIY blink cameras can save locally to a memory stick in the sync module device as I have a couple of cameras already so thinking of going with Blink doorbell instead
Thanks! I appreciate your video 😁

Absolutely! Glad to help.
I have the ring doorbell and don’t like that I miss motion alert at times and that’s after I enhance my settings. My son has blink with the sync module. He bought on sale as a package deal on Amazon for $56 so he didn’t pay extra for the module as you mentioned. He loves it and I didn’t see a huge difference in the camera quality from my Ring. I’m thinking about switching to Blink due to the fact Ring just increased their annual subscription to $50 just to save videos etc. Blink’s sync module does this and there’s no subscription with it. Also the battery life is awful with Ring. It’s chargeable but doesn’t last long. And you have to change certain settings just to save battery life. Blink uses AA batteries but they last longer than Ring’s chargeable battery.

Could not agree more. I have not looked back on my decision to swap the Ring with the Blink.
how is Blink subscription free? I am going to buy Blink and I have read on the Blink website that I need a subscription for storage

I believe if you want long-term storage, you're gonna have to pay for that. We just delete our footage to keep it below the threshold and it deletes the old stuff.
The problem with blink is that the app takes sooo long to open, it makes it useless when someone rings the doorbell, by the time you open the app they're gone. No wonder that have a 2 star review on the app/play store I'll be switching to ring soon

Thanks for sharing, Tim. Not my experience. I am not sure what the difference would be.
Blink only lets you use 1 doorbell cam without the subscription. Your clips will be blank!

Thank you for pointing that out. I didn’t know that.
I was told blink doorbell has 3 dollar a month fee or $10 a month with unlimited devices

Magic, that may be but you can still find Blink storage at no cost. I will try to find the deal and post it.

I keep hearing that. I swapped the Ring out with the Blink and haven’t looked back.
