Pros & Cons
Pros
Great app for viewing/playback. Phone app also is flawless. I have the mobile apps installed on several android phones and tablets and the windows client installed on my home system.
One recommendation to the manufacturer is to make the watertight cap at the ethernet connection more watertight. If you plan to upgrade the storage, this is the ideal time to do so as well. Complete all cable runs before installing cameras with 2 to 3... Read More
Motion detection is digital/pixel based so will pick up anything that moves within the pixels. Night vision was awesome, motion detection is accurate, but since i record 24/7 there has been no issues. To fine tune video captures, please research/read-... Read More
Clarity during the daylight is amazing. Night vision is good but focuses light toward the center which limits the distance if the camera is angled downward. License plates reflect light, including infrared. The daytime quality is excellent.
Easy install, good video, good sound. Hardware wise, i have no complaint. Only complaint is tech support has went downhill some.
Cons
Buyers beware! Surely there has to be something much better for the money. Absolutely one of the worst support dept. Hopefully its the correct system this time. Buy something else.
If you switch camera channels too quickly during playback it crashes the nvr and reboots. Now it says connection failed again. The only way to get it back on is to unplug from the wall.
Video quality and app are great but because there is no person/vehicle detection as described i get multiple motion notifications almost every minute. Soooooo no more saved videos. Description is also very misleading on the quality of video.
Highlights
Quality
The sound pick up is solid, and the cameras are very sturdy.
Easy to install and gives great views at night time
System was easy to set up, however i have had 2 cameras fail within 2 weeks of each other.
The camera system worked great, initially, but now i have two cameras that will go off.
Price
I find this to be an awesome security camera system for the money.
This is probably the most important thing to me and for the price you can't beat it.
Also required to pay a fee to send them back when the product or camera goes bad and it is out of the users control.
Overall: honestly for the price i couldn't beat it.
Competitiveness
The samsung system has much more robust power supplies (2 for 2 banks of 8 cameras) than the reolink which is why i suspect the... Read More
The cameras are great, but the company can do better with the infrared night vision.

Nightvision is great when there are no sources of light
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
I have a back yard light on a timer so i can see my dogs at night and the camera can only see what is brightly lit by the light and chirstmas lights cause the cameras to be less effective when they are on but that is to be expected

I get about 5 days of recording before it rewrites the footage on a 2 tb drive

The image is sharp and the night vision is more than adequate
