    Customers appreciate the camera's functionality. They find it reliable, with good picture quality and a 360-degree view.

    382 customers mention "Picture quality"312 positive70 negative

    Customers like the picture quality of the security camera. They say it has clear video and images even at night. The software is well-thought-out and easy to use. However, some mention that the resolution is fair and don't expect to read license plates clearly. The video and audio are good, but there's no optical zoom. The night vision is alright, with black and white without spot light at far distances. The night IR lights up the scene very well. The cam sees a very wide angle, and they like the solar panel.

    "...Night vision is alright. The black and white without spot light at far distances, 75+ feet I can see shadows...." Read more

    "...Fired up the app, added the device, and it's working. Video and audio are good but there's no optical zoom..." Read more

    "...The 4k recording is excellent, the clarity is quite a bit better than our front door cam which is a couple of years older and maybe a 2k model?..." Read more

    391 customers mention "Value for money"234 positive157 negative

    Customers have different views on the value for money of the security camera. Some find it a good value and worth it, saying it helps them keep an eye on things and assess things. Others feel the price point is too high, and the camera lacks commercial-grade features.

    "...Easy to link up to the app. I got this on sale, so the price was good as well...." Read more

    "...Note: Remember this is not a commercial grade professional system, but commercial grade features likely cost much higher commercial grade prices,..." Read more

    "...camera and there’s a reason - they are extremely reliable and are a great value...." Read more

    "...I give it 4 stars as I deem it high quality, for it's price. However, I find it rather high priced for it's quality...." Read more

    339 customers mention "Motion detection"122 positive217 negative

    Customers have mixed opinions about the motion detection of the security camera. Some find it works well, capturing moving images and showing moving previews in playback. Others mention it only records when motion is detected, has sketchy detection as the advertised max distance nears, and doesn't record until motion stops. They also say it needs better detection sensitivity to detect motion quicker and is not accurate for detecting small animals like armadillos.

    "...The downsides to this camera are it doesn't allow for continuous recording, which, as a secondary camera, isn't a big deal...." Read more

    "...For me all around, this camera is good quality, range of motion is awesome! Easy to link up to the app...." Read more

    "...respond to motion especially at night and many times, miss actions that trigger recording...." Read more

    "...And it does not record until motion stops. It times out at 8 or 15 seconds, its a setting. It also records many false motions...." Read more

    251 customers mention "Battery life"126 positive125 negative

    Customers have different experiences with the battery life of the security camera. Some say it never runs out of battery power, keeps a solid 100% charge even without direct sunlight, and is nice during power outages. Others mention that the battery won't last the night, the solar charge doesn't last, and the camera requires sunny days or slowly loses power.

    "...Battery shows full but camera wont come on or reset." Read more

    "...But most cases your camera will shut down and you'll have a very difficult time trying to get it to come back up...." Read more

    "...does a decent job in taking even the lowest light and providing a form of charge, but it obviously shines in direct sunlight...." Read more

    "...Now, after 2 years, 5 mos, the battery barely holds enough of a charge to run for a week. Super disappointing. Just out of warranty, of course...." Read more

    365 customers mention "Connectivity"63 positive302 negative

    Customers have connectivity issues with the security camera. They report that it has a tendency to drop connections, fail to respond to PTX, and lose connectivity to their iPhone and MacBook Pro. The camera doesn't establish a secure enough connection to charge properly.

    "...warranty return process, and then discovered most USB-C cables don't make a proper connection...." Read more

    "...reasonably well, and now, 4-5 months later it has gone from constant disconnecting, able to see the camera to not working at all...." Read more

    "...cannot access the camera on your network, and you are notified "DEVICE NOT CONNECTED"...." Read more

    UPDATE  The best camera we've bought so far and we have several different brands !
    5 out of 5 stars
    UPDATE The best camera we've bought so far and we have several different brands !
    UPDATE:I had recently got a new router, a Netgear Nighthawk and was having a problem getting the Reolink cameras connected back again but after much research......SUCCESS! I found a solution that worked for me, hopefully this info might help others too.After researching even more online I found a suggestion to try creating a guest wifi network on your router.So I gave it a try and it WORKED to get my 3 Reolink Argus PT cameras connected to me new router.Now while I feel like it wasn't necessary in my case to give the guest wifi network a password without any special characters I did it anyhow and used just numbers and letters (the cameras had connected to my old router with a special character in that password)Another point to remember is I think you need to have your phone on the same network when adding the cameras.Just checked and it seems you need to make sure your phone is connected to the guest network when wanting to access the Reolink cameras you connected thru the guest network. (now I have other brand cameras that I connect to the main network that I can still access when on the guest network but an indoor Reolink camera I have E1 that I was able to connect to the main network I can't access thru the guest network like the other brands.Now I did try seeing if I could switch the cameras back to the main wifi but it didn't work and I have to remove and reinstall the camera I tried it on and add it again to the guest wifi network to access it again.Well, I guess having to switch networks when wanting to go from the outside Reolinks to the inside Reolink is better than buying a new router or new cameras and I am simply thankful I could get them to finally reconnect as I was beginning to think I'd have to replace them with other brands of cameras.Original review:This is Karen's husband writing this review as I am the "tech guy" in our home.I am VERY pleased with how the camera is performing so far, so the 4.2 out of 5 rating seems well deserved. I admit I had some reservations when I read some of the reviews that were negative, in my opinion some may have been because of an individually defective product and some may have been due to lack of detailed enough directions.When I was first trying to connect the camera to our WIFI it wouldn't connect, then I realized I forgot to type in our WIFI password, DUH ! After I added the password it connected immediately. The camera is roughly about 85 feet from our WIFI router and goes thru 2 walls and still has kept connected very well.Also, we have Amazon Alexa and at first could not get Alexa to recognize the camera, so I did an online search for help and found a page on the Reolink support site with the steps needed to connect to Alexa, after reading that page I saw there was a step I didn't know about, once I followed those steps Alexa connected very well ! We can view the live camera feed from our smartphone app, from our "Echo Shows" via voice command, and even on our tv screens with Amazon Firestick (we have other brands of security cameras we view thru the Firestick also) so I can use a voice command and see different cameras on the screens including the Reolink camera, and I did not have to download anything to the Firestick, simply enable Alexa according to the directions on the help page I mentioned.I already had security cameras looking from our home outward, I wanted a wireless solar PTZ camera I could mount away from the house that I could turn to look at the house as well as turn to view other areas of our property not covered by the cameras we already had.So I mounted the camera on a thick (schedule 40) PVC pipe and mounted the solar panel on the very top of the pole, I used 3 hose clamps to fasten the PVC pipe to a 4 foot metal fence post I hammered into the ground, so far it seems to working very well. I will upload a picture of it.I do a lot of research before buying tech stuff, and it would be difficult to find ANY product that is perfect or that you might wish had more or better features, but for the features you get with this camera (including solar powered, PTZ capability, Alexa connectivity) I really can't complain for the price paid.Note: Remember this is not a commercial grade professional system, but commercial grade features likely cost much higher commercial grade prices, so again, for the price paid I really can't complain, I feel this camera does really pretty good for it's price level !

      Style: 4K 8MPVerified Purchase
      Installation and set up was easy. I used different screws to mount it, i never use the screw that come with it as they tend to strip easily.
      I bought this camera to keep an eye on my puppy while I was out. Being anguardian dog, she loves to be outside so I leave her out when I go run errands. This camera is 360° pan and 140° tilt. I love how I can keep an eye on her and follow her around the yard. The 2 way talk works, it's not overly loud, but she can hear me. I bought a 128 gig SD card for it so I can use playback. I know some reviews mention the charge with the solar panel. Mine works fine, but I do not keep it on 24/7 so I can't speak for all day/night use with the charge. I have left it on for several hours after I got home because I forgot to turn it off and it was at 95%. So for me this works great, it also covers the rest of the property and side of house where I have it mounted.
      Night vision is alright. The black and white without spot light at far distances, 75+ feet I can see shadows. I can turn the brightness up in the settings for night time to see better far out. I turn it back down for day time. The spot light is bright! And works well for colored night vision. When motion is detected at night and triggers the spot light I can see all the way to the end of property line. Seeing faces if there were any that far out would be difficult to identify. You can zoom in while looking at the camera, and like any camera, the more you zoom in the more pixilated the image gets.
      For me all around, this camera is good quality, range of motion is awesome! Easy to link up to the app. I got this on sale, so the price was good as well. If you are looking to see past 50+ feet with clear image, get a pan tilt with zoom option. All in all I'm pleased with this camera and am thinking about getting more.

      Installation and set up was easy. I used different screws to mount it, i never use the screw that come with it as they tend to strip easily.
      I bought this camera to keep an eye on my puppy while I was out. Being anguardian dog, she loves to be outside so I leave her out when I go run errands. This camera is 360° pan and 140° tilt. I love how I can keep an eye on her and follow her around the yard. The 2 way talk works, it's not overly loud, but she can hear me. I bought a 128 gig SD card for it so I can use playback.

      Arrived as ordered. Just fiddling around in my office for a few minutes and managed to scan in the QR codes. Downloaded the app on iPad and iPhone without issue. Fired up the app, added the device, and it's working. Video and audio are good but there's no optical zoom (which shouldn't be a surprise at this price point). Don't have a thrombo if the image is upside down--read on.

      Best mounting is on a vertical surface. The camera's bottom it its top so it seems upsidey-downsidey until it's mounted with the camera on the bottom and then the aformentioned reverse image undergoes spontaneous remission.

      Installing: mount the solar panel. Take its power cable and run it through the camera bracket from the top down. There's a narrow channel for the cable in the part that screws into the wall. Screw the mounting bracket into the vertical surface. Install the Micro SD card if you have one. Plug the power cable ino the camera. Carefully screw the antenna into the little port--be careful! Mount the camera on the bracket and finger-tighten the mounting screw with the conveniently-supplied hex wrench; "Reolink" logo should face forward. Assuming you're on a ladder, DO NOT take a step backward to admire your handiwork.

      Vendor included templates for drilling pilot holes for the mounting brackets--nice touch. Pan-title-zoom icon is small and I can't make anything zoom digitally. Not sure about the solar panel's effectiveness because I have trees that partially block my western sun. A wall wart may be necessary in the winter; the sun goes away for six months near Seattle. The power port is behind the camera and you have to unscrew the mounting bolt to get access; not a deal-breaker.

      Overall: so far, so good.

      Update: battery drained due to inadequate sunlight, a result of shorter winter days in the Pacific Northwest. I was unable to charge the unit, went through the warranty return process, and then discovered most USB-C cables don't make a proper connection. The supplied cable works; half a dozen other cables from Apple and others did not. IMO this is a design/engineering/manufacturing issue; USB-C is a global standard and cables should be interchangeable. The other issue is the solar panel doesn't provide enough power to keep the system working during short and/or dark days.

      I bought this as a secondary camera to monitor our backyard/detached garage/driveway in addition to the POE hard-wired Reolink camera that monitors the front of the house. The setup is easy, though I had a difficult time scanning the setup QR code outdoors. I did eventually get it to work without having to take the camera indoors, however. I used a high endurance name-brand 256GB SD card which the camera recognized and formatted with no issues.

      So far the solar charging is working great -- the camera has never been at less than 100% charge, even after running overnite. The wifi connection has also been very stable and strong, which I thought may be an issue after reading some reviews, and knowing our lead filled 100 year old house generally has poor signal outdoors.

      The 4k recording is excellent, the clarity is quite a bit better than our front door cam which is a couple of years older and maybe a 2k model? The picture is very sharp and clear.

      The Reolink software is highly customizable for alerts and notifications as well. We have three dogs, and my wife works from home frequently, so I have it setup so I don't get alerts for animals or people on certain days/hours to avoid unnecessary notifications.

      The downsides to this camera are it doesn't allow for continuous recording, which, as a secondary camera, isn't a big deal. I wish this would have been clearer in the description, though. The second issue is the camera doesn't track motion. Being a motorized camera, I assumed it would, again I wish this would have been clearer in the description. I maybe would have gone with a fixed wide angle camera instead.

      All in all a good product and excellent, customizable software. Really appreciate that there is NO SUBCRIPTION required to use the camera to it's full potential. I recently added a Reolink hub which has proved to be an excellent addition with multiple cameras, and was similarly easy to setup and use.

      La instalación no lleva más de 10 minutos con un taladro, y la configuración bajando la app no te lleva más de 5 min. Excelente calidad de video aún en la noche. Las alertas se tiene que ir calibrando para evitar falsos positivos, una vez que queda bien calibrada funcionan excelente.

      This is the Reolink Ultra PT battery security camera. I also purchased the additional solar panel to enable recharging of the battery that is not removable.

      The camera has high quality colour and or black and white footage and operates based on sensor when motion is detected and is not constantly recording. Features too many to name but the handy Reolink app allows all sorts of settings and recordings to be viewed remotely on iPad or iPhone or Android devices after initial set up which again is relatively straight forward. You can also apply “mask” to the app so you are not viewing neighbours windows on houses or other areas.

      No subscription or ongoing fees to use app. The battery life before recharging will vary dependant on use and viewing currently mine has lasted 4 weeks on one charge (limited daily viewing) Battery cannot be removed for charging and a usb cable can either be connected to the solar panel (additional cost or by connecting to a powerbank. If you can’t be bothered with charging purchase the wired option and have it connected to power source. The advantage of the battery option is it can be relocated without an electrician and if the mains power goes off during storm or other outage your battery operated reolinhk will still work.

      You can record to a micro sd card (additional purchase) to store footage if you don’t wish to purchase a full recording system. The slot in the camera is in a protected position on the device to avoid weather or quick removal by an intruder.
      The camera has an alarm, speaker to talk to persons at house , although this only picks up clear audio within a few metres of the camera. Also has strong lights for night time recording in colour The camera has a tool to lock the camera into the cradle to prevent it being easily removed by an intruder, it has two different attachments so can be installed under an eave or on a post or facia board of a building. It appears to be well built.
      There are many Reolink battery and hard wired cameras available and I would based on current use and experience purchase another or something similar or updated model within the Reolink range.

      Best advice before purchase is to make sure it will suit your own individual security requirements.
