BOSTON, Dec. 19, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Blink, the leader in affordable video-first home security, today announced that it has been named a CES 2018 Innovation Awards Honoree. The brand won this recognition for its recently announced Blink Video Doorbell, the industry's newest and most affordable video doorbell. This marks the third consecutive CES Innovation Award victory for the brand within the Smart Home category, as chosen by an esteemed panel of judges that includes industry designers, engineers and media.

The Blink Video Doorbell is a one-of-a-kind, two-way talk, HD video doorbell that is revolutionizing home security through its unprecedented ease of installation, two-year battery life and affordable price point (starting at $99). Blink developed a special analog circuitry that detects a home's existing doorbell structure and auto-configures itself accordingly, preventing additional costs or complexities that tend to go along with the installation process. This makes the installation of the Blink Video Doorbell as simple as inserting the batteries and attaching it to your readily-accessible doorbell wiring.

"As we continue to take the home security industry by storm, we are humbled to be named a CES Innovation Awards Honoree for the third consecutive year," said Peter Besen, Blink's CEO. "The creation of the Blink Video Doorbell has expanded the ways in which our users can protect their home, which has always been our top priority. With industry-leading battery life and DIY installation, full-coverage home security is now achievable at a price that can't be beat."

Blink has been disrupting the smart home security industry for the last two years, taking CES and the consumer tech market by storm with an unbeatable price point ($99), unprecedented two-year battery life, and unmatched ease of installation and use. Blink has continued this momentum as demonstrated by its announcement of the Blink XT outdoor camera, Amazon Alexa-integration and now the Blink Video Doorbell.

For those looking to meet the team behind this award-winning product, Blink will be at CES Unveiled on January 7 and CES 2018 from January 9 to January 12 at Booth #42535 in the Smart Home section of the Sands Expo, Level 2, Halls A-D.
