Blink Outdoor Camera Without Subscription

How do these act without a subscription? Almost the same. You lose the thumbnail when browsing saved videos. They take a little longer to load...still only a second or two. Live views are not saved (that's when you click the camera icon to monitor manually). Otherwise, they do everything I need them to without paying the monthly fee. Videos start when motion is detected and they're stored on a USB drive plugged into the Sync Module.
