If you're looking to gift an affordable outdoor camera that doesn't require frequent battery replacements, the Blink Outdoor 4 is a great option. CNET's Tyler Lacoma says, "From the 1080p resolution and Alexa support to the two-way audio and motion detection, the Outdoor 4 does a little of everything in a compact, weather-resistant design. But where it really shines is that extended battery life."
The handy Blink app also lets you check battery status -- a lifesaver, since you’ll probably forget the last time you changed them (they can last up to two years). For just $4 to $5, you can swap the batteries and go right back to not thinking about it for a long, long time.
