Mini 4K+ is an indoor plug-in camera that can also be used outdoors when paired with the Blink Weather-Resistant Power Adapter (sold separately).
Some key features include up to 4K (3840 x 2160) video resolution for best-in-class image quality, full-duplex two-way audio with noise cancellation, H.265 video compression for efficient streaming and storage, and built-in siren. Smart Detection capabilities including person and vehicle detection are available when paired with a Blink Subscription Plan or no-cost trial.
Additional features include:
- Night vision: Enhanced dynamic range and color video streaming at low light levels.
- Audio: Full-duplex two-way talk with echo cancellation and noise cancellation.

- Smart Detection: Computer vision distinguishes motion caused by a person or vehicle (with a Blink plan or no-cost trial).
- Pre-roll: Captures video before a motion event is triggered, showing what happened just before the event started.
- Chime: Works as a chime for Video Doorbell when added to the same system.
