Editor’s Note: We love a good Black Friday deal. But, we also know not everyone is ready to buy within that window. So read our SimpliSafe home security system cost page for excellent deals year-round.
Black Friday is here, and if home security cameras are on your shopping list, you’ll want to check out Blink. We have an in-depth Blink review that goes into all the specifics, but suffice it to say, Blink is one of our favorite affordable security cameras.
Blink also often has some of the best security camera deals when Black Friday and Cyber Monday roll around, especially since Blink is an Amazon brand. So right now, let’s go check out how much you can save on Blink’s affordable but reliable home security cameras.
Where To Look For Blink Black Friday 2024 Deals
Unlike its sister company Ring, Blink doesn’t have its own online store. You’re going to need to buy from a third-party retailer, but lucky for you, Amazon owns the Blink brand. And as we all know, Amazon is great with discounts.
Here are the best Blink Black Friday deals we’ve seen so far today for individual cameras:
| Camera options from Blink | Amazon Black Friday price 2024 |
|---|---|
| Blink Mini | $17.99 (40% off) |
| Blink Mini 2 | $19.99 (50% off) |
| Blink Video Doorbell | $29.99 (50% off) |
Those are just for individual cameras. Given how affordable they are, most shoppers usually purchase multiple Blink cameras to secure their entire homes. If that’s what you have in mind, you’ll actually save more if you buy a bundle – either multiple of the same Blink cameras or different Blink cameras packaged together. Right now, bundles are up to 62-percent off. Here are some examples:
| Blink Bundle | Bundle regular price | Special Black Friday price | Black Friday savings |
|---|---|---|---|
| Blink Outdoor 4 (3 cameras) | $259.99 | $99.99 | 62% |
| Whole Home Bundle (Blink Mini, Video Doorbell, and Outdoor 4) | $199.97 | $89.97 | 55% |
| Blink Mini with Blink Video Doorbell | $89.98 | $47.98 | 46% |
| Blink Outdoor 4 with Blink Mini Pan-Tilt | $139.98 | $79.98 | 42% |
| Blink Mini (3 cameras) | $69.99 | $41.99 | 40% |
We’ve been covering Blink’s Black Friday sale for several years now, and we can safely say that that’s really how low prices drop during these sales. Will they drop even more as the sale goes on? Unlikely, but keep monitoring Blink’s Amazon shop. That is, if you haven’t already seen a deal you like. If you have, don’t wait around. Blink is one of Amazon’s best-sellers; don’t risk missing out.
That said, while you’re on Amazon, check out Ring’s Black Friday Deals as well. Ring products are slightly more expensive, there are more options to choose from. Ring is also better feature-wise, and it has a full-fledged home security system called Ring Alarm plus a ton of video doorbell options.
Pro Tip: Cameras are an important part of your home security posture, but you might want to add a layer of protection. Maybe consider checking out our roundup of the best home security systems of 2024. That’ll help you get a solid foundation.

Post-Black Friday: Year-Round Blink Deals
Blink is known for manufacturing high-quality cameras at reasonable prices — more on that in our guide to Blink’s pricing and products — but even outside special shopping days, you might be able to spot a deal or two from Blink. The best place to look is, once again, Amazon.
This year, for example, we saw the price of the Blink Mini gen 1 fluctuate from its regular $34.99 retail price down to about $20. There are also refurbished Blink cameras, if that’s something you’re interested in. Refurbished or open-box items are checked extensively before going on sale again, and they are covered by the same warranty as brand-new items.
Lastly, multi-camera bundles are on-sale year-round. The prices aren’t as good as Black Friday bundle prices, but you can usually shave off around 10- to 20-percent from the retail price if you buy a multi-camera bundle.
That said, even though you can get discounts outside Black Friday, why would you wait if you can get the best prices now? The bottom line is that there aren’t a lot of days outside Black Friday and Prime Day that offer prices as low as we’re seeing now.
Pro Tip: 1080p? 4K? Ultra 4K? The jargon can get a little confusing. So if you’re not sure what you need when it comes to security camera equipment, don’t worry. We wrote the ultimate guide to security cameras to get you up to speed.
Recap: Deal-Hunting Tips for Black Friday 2024
We waited an entire year to see Blink’s Black Friday 2024 deals, and now that they’re here, we’re not disappointed. Once again, Blink is one of the most-discounted brands on Amazon, with savings on bundles up to 62-percent. That’s on par with past Black Fridays, if not a little better. So if you’re wondering if it’s a good time to buy Blink right now, we say yes.
That said, Blink offers only security cameras. There are lots of other brands on sale that offer other types of home security equipment. Go check out ADT’s Black Friday sale, for example. Unlike Blink, ADT offers security systems with sensors and smart home devices – powered mostly by Google’s Nest Cams. If you don’t already have a security system to supplement your Blink cameras, we recommend ADT. It’s one of our top security systems right now.
