Pros

This is a vey good camera works 100%. Bon nvr. The pvr works great. Big thank you to mc from reolink support.

Graphical interface is very intuitive and simple to configure. It's a wonderful piece of engineering that took only seconds to get running and instantly sees new cameras the moment they power up.

Works well in my network. No trouble with the app client. The gui interface is cleaned up.

The image quality is the best i've seen yet and far surpasses arlo. Customer service is v good. Mais j'ai changé d'avis quand je vois la qualité d'image and la facilité de relecture des vidéos enregistrés.

The model supports up to 6tb of hdd space internally and 6tb externally. At 3 or more cameras you definitely need to upgrade your included 2tb hdd if you want more than two weeks going back. Upgrades for up to 12 gig harddrive is a plus.



Cons

The motion detection in the nvr is a joke, it generates way too many false alarms. Some features are good, but suggest the buyer first invest in a phd.

Price


The system is definitely worth the price.


Again not really a problem as i find them reasonably priced and go on sale.

Shipping


However i filed a support request on the reolink website and within 12 hours they air shipped a replacement nvr, no questions asked.


48 hours later my nvr was replaced and i shipped back the original.

Competitiveness


I wish this is less expensive because generic alternatives are much less, but i’m happy that it just works, works well, and reo...  Read More


I purchased two more reolink rlc-520 cameras and just added them to the nvr for a total of 8 cameras now.


It did not pick up any of my other wireless cameras of different brands (none of which are onvif compliant to my knowledge)


Prior to this nvr, with my current phone and service provider, i was unable to see the cameras over data (the only brand that d...  Read More

    The 4k camera covers a much larger area then my previous 5mp cameras

    One has to scroll to the right and enter the passwords for each camera


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    That was not clear when i was first setting it up as the field to enter the passwords is out of sight

    The nvr works well but its native software is a bit clunky to use

    Prior to this nvr with my current phone and service provider i was unable to see the cameras over data the only brand that did not work

    I repurposed an old monitor so that the cameras are displayed in my office full time

    I wish the network termination of the camera was within the body itself rather than a pigtail
