It's one of five new Blink cameras that went up for pre-order in the US that day, from the $49.99 Mini Pan-Tilt 2K+ to the $199.99 Frontier XR+ trail camera, which reaches up to 7,000 feet from its hub with a clear line of sight. The Mini 4K+ plugs into the wall, works indoors, and outdoors with an IP65 rating on a separately sold adapter, and records 4K video with a 115-degree field of view and dual-band Wi-Fi 6.

All five went up for pre-order in the US on Oct. 21, 2026. Amazon’s US listings put the Mini 4K+ and Mini Pan-Tilt 2K+ on sale from Oct. 27, 2026, and list Jan. 1, 2027, for the Frontier XR+, Outdoor 2K XR+ and Spotlight Cam 2K+.

The Mini 4K+ is Blink’s sharpest camera, a small plug-in model for inside and outside the home:

  • 4K video with 10x enhanced zoom, Blink says;
  • 115-degree horizontal field of view;
  • dual-band Wi-Fi 6;
  • IP65 rating outdoors with the Blink Weather-Resistant Power Adapter, sold separately;
  • two-way audio;
  • Smart Alerts with person and vehicle detection, with a compatible Blink subscription.

On eligible plans in the US, Canada and the UK, the Mini 4K+ also offers Video Descriptions, short text summaries of what the camera saw, so you don’t have to watch every clip. The feature isn’t available in Illinois because of state law.

Spotlight Cam 2K+ and Mini Pan-Tilt 2K+

The Spotlight Cam 2K+ ($109.99) is Blink’s first battery-powered spotlight camera. It records 2K video, and its spotlight, up to 400 lumens, switches on with motion, and a built-in siren sounds when triggered from the app. With no wires, it goes above a garage, along a side yard or near a back gate.

The Mini Pan-Tilt 2K+ ($49.99) is Blink’s first indoor and outdoor pan-tilt camera. It turns 350 degrees side to side and 115 degrees up and down, with Auto Tracking, night vision and two-way audio. Outside, it needs the Blink Weather-Resistant Power Adapter, included in the outdoor bundle or sold separately.

Frontier XR+ and Outdoor 2K XR+: long-range cameras

Both XR+ cameras connect through the new Sync Module XR+, a hub that pushes coverage beyond home Wi-Fi when mounted outdoors:
