The Amazon Echo Show 5 and the Blink Outdoor 4 bundle are down to just $60 before the Big Day.
We often see some devices on Amazon, including Blink cameras, drop in price before both the main dates in July and October. This time, Prime members have a special deal available right now on a bundle that includes the Echo Show 5 smart display and the Blink Outdoor 4 camera system for just $60. That’s $130 off regular price and a record low. It’s part of a big early Prime Day sale on Blink devices, including multi-camera systems, video doorbells and more.
This bundle is one that makes a lot of sense. You’ll be able to use your Echo Show 5 to get a live view of whatever the Blink Outdoor 4 camera is capturing with a simple Alexa command.

We recommend both products individually in our guide. We believe the Blink Outdoor 4 is the best wireless security camera. The name is a misnomer as you can easily place it inside your home, not least because it runs on two AA batteries. You will only need to replace the cells every two years or so.
When you place the camera outside, you can rest easy knowing that it is weather resistant. Other features include night vision, motion detection and two-way audio. You will need a Blink Subscription Plan to save clips to the cloud. Alternatively, you can store images locally with the Sync Module 2 (available separately) and a USB flash drive.
As for the Echo Show 5, it is one of the best displays with Amazon Alexa (beaten only by its bigger sibling, the Echo Show 8). A compact, 5.5-inch smart display that works well as an alarm clock on your nightstand. The tap-to-snooze function is right there, while there’s a sunrise alarm that slowly lights up the screen.
The Echo Show 5 has a built-in camera, which may give you reason to worry if you want to keep it next to your bed. But the virtual camera cover should negate any privacy concerns in that regard.
