Great watch camera!
Got this to watch my animals at home when I leave for work or school. Has such great quality and easy to connect, I’m also able to turn the camera and move it left , right , up and down. Just be mindful where you place the camera, so I always check what are the limits to the camera turning before leaving it because if I put it in a high place I can’t see on the bottom of the camera and vice versa but overall really love it

Works great with Amazon Alexa
Working good,Interesting camera I have to install it on the roof and I will have a better view of the room I have it for my dog. Also I’m using Amazon Alexa for put on the air conditioner

Good option for basic home surveillance
I was searching for some home security cameras that didn’t require a monthly subscription to use. I bought a two pack of these cameras - one to place in our living area to monitor when the babysitter is watching our daughter, and the other for our front porch. The cameras are fairly easy to set up using the mobile app and the controls within the app are easy to figure out. Camera picture is clear, audio could be better but I also have one set up close to the tv so I’m sure that affects it. I did buy separate micro SD cards to be able to save and playback, but haven’t gotten the cards formatted yet so can’t yet speak to the playback features. The app can take a long time (30+ seconds) to connect to the live stream when I’m not at home on the same WiFi network as the cameras, which defeats the purpose a little bit if I’m needing to check in on things due to a motion alert from the cameras, hence why I like the ability for playback using the micro SD cards. The app also has “smart detection” to tell you if it senses a pet, person, or other motion, however, it isn’t that “smart” because it often says a pet is detected in the living room (we don’t have pets inside) and a person is detected on the front porch, when nothing is out there.Overall, for the first security cameras I’ve ever bought, they seem to function as intended and are user friendly. Worth the money for what you get if you’re wanting an affordable home surveillance option.

Best Bang for your Buck!
Perfect for cheap camera. Connecting is sometimes tricky, but will remember networks when powered off, and accounts when changing networks (like if you move). Gives nearly 360 view with manual spinning. Audio as well. Push notifications optional for detection movement. Easy to manage from the app

Most features do not work!
I have three cameras, the two in this review plus an exterior fixed position camera, also by Reolink. Of the two cameras being reviewed here, one is connected wirelessly and the other is a hard wired connection. You'd think the wired connection would be 100% reliable but it doesn't perform any better than the wireless unit.Both are worthless as security cameras. They might be ok for monitoring pets but even then connectivity is hit and miss. If you're using them to monitor babies or the elderly I would look for something more reliable. Keep in mind I'm a software engineer and work with electronics every day.Connectivity performance: HorribleThe Details:1) I have a wifi watering system (Rachio) that works very well and is mounted outside where the wifi coverage is much worse. However, it has better connectivity than both of these cameras.2) I have a Google Home sitting next to one of these cameras and it always has a wifi connection. This should eliminate my home wifi as a source of the bad connectivity.3) Sitting 5 feet away from the Google Home and one of the cameras is my wifi router. This does eliminate my wifi as a source of the connectivity issues.4) One of the cameras is wired directly to my home network along with a Linux computer and a laptop connected to the same network switch. This camera performs no better than the wifi camera!!!!Remote Control: Sporadic at bestThe Details:1) The alarm function works if and when you can connect to the camera.2) The "Push-to-talk" function never works, period.3) Remote positioning of the camera will drive you crazy because when you can connect to the camera it only works about 30% of the time and all movement is delayed by about 5 seconds. This means that you have to make small movement adjustments and then wait for 5-10 seconds to see if the camera actually moves. If you make large adjustments either the camera doesn't move or you're likely to overshoot the position you want. Also, there is no indication when you've reached the limit of movement.4) Saving and naming camera positions works about 70% of the time (again, if and when you can connect to the camera). This is the best feature to use rather than trying to remotely position the camera at will. Create and name the best positions and then use the pre-programmed positions to move the camera. This is useful when the camera is mounted in a room but the camera field of view does not cover the entire room. You can then save multiple named positions and then recall them.Setting Presets: Good luckMost of the settings could not be changed or required repeated attempts. Camera settings - none of them could be changed. Email notification scheduling - yes. Push notifications - nope. Motion detection - nope.Remote Video Monitoring:Image quality - Outstanding (when you can connect). Both day and night image quality is good.In Summary, the cameras just don't work well as security cameras if you wish to hear audio or speak through the camera, remotely control the camera position, or reliably use many of the remote control features.If you just want to remotely monitor video then they work ok for that.

Excellent quality
They work great and are easy to set up. The size and look are pretty discrete. My dogs can hear me and understand me perfectly when I speak to them through the camera. The video quality is great. I haven't noticed any lagging.
