On image quality and control the Ring Indoor Cam Plus is the better indoor camera, beating the Blink Mini 2 with 2K video, HDR, customizable motion zones and a privacy zone, plus a slightly lower price and a marginally stronger owner rating. Motion zones and the privacy mask matter more than they sound indoors: they are what stop a busy hallway or a neighbour's window from filling your phone with alerts. The Blink Mini 2 answers with flexibility the Ring cannot match: it is weather resistant with the right adapter so it can go outside, it records locally to a microSD card through a Sync Module instead of relying on the cloud, it adds vehicle detection to motion and people, and it has a built-in spotlight for colour footage at night. Choose the Blink Mini 2 to mount outdoors or to keep clips off the cloud, and the Ring Indoor Cam Plus for the sharper, better-controlled indoor picture.
