Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Easy to install, easy to set up. Using the included instructions made connecting to my nvr a breeze. You have to make sure you get the right rated switch/injector. Some cameras use nfs drives, this one uses ftp.

This camera is packed full of great options and features. Reolink's app is pretty darn reliable (like their cameras) and works well enough for me to be pleased with it.



Cons

Our mailbox is approximately 70ft away from where the camera is positioned. The camera has an artifacting problem when running at full resolution.

Price is okay for what it is, but if you need a reliable camera with no downtime you are probably not going to be happy with this product. The watermark is annoying and unnecessary. Night vision is functional but the pattern is horrible. Bingo not inc...  Read More

It's rather unfair of reolink to change their product but keep the old reviews to inflate their ratings. This is simply not factual if you make some assumptions based on the information that the manufacturer has provided. Practically everything else i...  Read More

Quality


The sound quality is clear and there is no annoying hum.


Easy setup, amazing video , easy view remotely liked it


One of the camera's stopped working within months of installation.


The app etc, is normally terrible and difficult to use, not the case with the reolink!

Price


At this price point, you really can't go wrong!


I was looking for low cost cameras to play around with, and this seems to do the trick.


I run five of these with zoneminder in a docker container on a synology nas (because paying $1,500 for a nas and then having to...  Read More


My only feedback is to lower the price point!

Shipping


I was able to connect this camera to my poe switch and it came online extremely fast.

Packaging/appearance


This camera is packed full of great options and features.


I added this to a reolink packaged system and it all works as intended.

Competitiveness


I have half a dozen cameras from reolink now, they are all very different but they are all very good, and this one is no exception.


Reolink is a top brand in the home camera space.


I've used cameras that listed for significantly more money and don't have half the features.


The picture quality is great and it has a bit wider field of view than a lot of competitors so it covers a little more area which is nice.

    I run five of these with zoneminder in a docker container on a synology nas because paying 1500 for a nas and then having to buy additional 34licenses34 for their builtin nvr is criminal

    Honestly it feels like half of picking a security camera brand these days is finding a halfway decent app you can live with


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Playback is pretty good considering it has to stream from the memory card on the camera itself i dont use an nvr just memory cards in each camera


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I already had a poe network switch so i was setup to easily add a poe camera others might prefer to use a power plug
