Amazon just held a hardware event and introduced some new Blink security camera products. These include updates of the Blink Mini and Blink Outdoor. The Blink Mini 2K+ and the Blink Outdoor 2K+ are brand-new entries in the line-up that both capture 2K video, for added detail. The previous versions were locked at 1080p.

The Blink Outdoor 2K+ features 4x zoom, enhanced low-light performance, two-way talk with noise cancellation and a whole lot more. It can detect both people and vehicles, automatically sending smartphone notifications to Blink Plus subscribers. The battery life is on-point and it includes the company's proprietary Weather Shield.


Amazon is calling the Blink Mini 2K+ its "most advanced plug-in compact camera yet." It can handle 2K video and can also be used outdoors, if you purchase a weather-resistant power adapter.

A camera.

The company also announced something called the Blink Arc, which is another camera primarily intended for outdoor use. This one can capture a panoramic view of a yard with maximum coverage. The Arc is actually two cameras in one, with an AI-enhanced algorithm that fuses the footage together into a single 180-degree panorama.

All of this stuff is available to pre-order right now. The Blink Mini 2K+ costs $50 and the Outdoor 2K+ costs $90. The Blink Arc costs a cool $100.
