REOLINK 8CH 8MP/4K Security Bullet Camera System with 2TB HDD RLK8-800B4

For reference I have worked in I.T. for over two decades and have installed security DVRs before. But I honestly believe anyone with the ability to follow simple instructions and capable of minor troubleshooting should find this system very easy to install and use. This is the first DVR I've set up that provides POE to the cameras via the built-in switch. This greatly simplifies and cleans up the installation. Many of the problems I see in these reviews can be fixed via simple troubleshooting. I haven't actually had to contact Reolink support so I can't really comment on how available or helpf

Really enjoying this. I will say this systems is not as user friendly as a ring system but I like having a NVR and not relying on subscription service. The cameras are great. High quality video

It was my upgrade from Zosi. App works very well. Cameras are clear and crisp. 4 stars only because initial set up isn’t as easy as they said.

These cameras have great quality and were easily installed. The night vision is good and they seem reliable as cameras go. My Reolink app keeps disconnecting from my system, but I can’t fault the cameras. I am not a techie, but I think these cameras are worth the price.

Wired is always better, IMHO. The wi-fi models offer lots of frills and monitoring options. I just wanted something that records and I can check if an issue arises.Hooked it up, plugged it into HDMI-2 input on monitor and have added 2 cameras so far, no issues.Upgraded the firmware to latest, file needs to be written on a flash drive formatted FAT-32 on a Windows computer. I couldn't get it to work by writing it with my Mac, maybe you can.Drive is a little noisy, shouldn't be an issue to replace when it dies as it looks like it's just treated as storage and the OS is just firmware on the contr

Setup was very straightforward. Image quality is clear and consistent. Plenty of settings to customize. Would definitely recommend

I purchased a Reolink camera, expecting to be able to check it anytime, anywhere on my phone, but the actual experience has been very disappointing.Issues:1. Only works on the same Wi-FiThe camera only works when connected to my home router. When I try to use mobile data outside, it cannot connect at all, making remote monitoring impossible.2. Misleading official claimsThe official description says it supports remote viewing, but mobile data simply doesn’t work, which is misleading.3. App performance is poorEven on Wi-Fi, the app sometimes lags and the connection is unstable, making the overal

These cameras are great but the app is disappointing. High quality video and fairly easy to install. The Ethernet cables included were long enough for all but one camera, so we had to buy a longer one.However, the mobile app is rather disappointing. We switched from battery powered, WiFi cameras to PoE cameras for improved quality and no battery charging needed. But we lost a lot of functionality with the app.With their PoE and NVR system, you can't get rich notifications with image previews, so the notifications are pretty useless. Also, you can't snooze or pause notifications. These features
