The October edition of Amazon Prime Day isn’t in full swing yet, but it’s still here tons of deals to be hadespecially in the company’s own products. It consists of Blink Outdoor 4 camera and Echo Show 5 smart display . That’s $130 off the regular price and a record low for this bundle. However, there’s a caveat: this deal is only available to Prime members.
This package is one that makes a lot of sense. You’ll be able to use your Echo Show 5 to get a live view of everything the Blink Outdoor 4 camera captures with a simple Alexa command.

The Blink Outdoor 4 camera and Echo Show 5 smart display bundle is down to an all-time low of $60. However, you must be a Prime member to take advantage of this discount.
We recommend both products separately in our guides. We believe the Blink Outdoor 4 has around. The name is a bit of a misnomer because you can easily place it inside your home, at least since it runs on two AA batteries. You only need to replace the cells every two years.
If you place the camera outside, you can rest easy knowing that it is weatherproof. Other features include night vision, motion detection and two-way audio. You’ll need a Blink Subscription Plan to store clips in the cloud. Otherwise, you can store footage locally with the Sync Module 2 (available separately) and a USB flash drive.
As for the Echo Show 5, this is one of them (beaten only by its big sister, the Echo Show 8). It’s a compact, 5.5-inch smart display that works well as an alarm clock on your nightstand. The snooze feature is useful there, as is the sunrise signal that gradually lights up the screen.
The Echo Show 5 has a built-in camera, which may be a concern if you want to place it next to your bed. But the physical camera cover should satisfy any privacy concerns on that front.
