I would stay away from Reolink. This is the third camera to fail on me. I've spent a month trying to get it to work with no luck and now I'm past the return window and stuck with a $50 paper weight.UPDATE: 3/16/25Reolink contacted me for support. After a firmware update on the NRV the new camera is working.

Using with Frigate NVR. No complaints. Works great.

these work great, no issues. i actually have these indoors and they blend well with my ceilings / molding/ trim.there is a chance that somewhere in china there is a chinaman, possibly winnie the pooh himself, watching me living my life at home.

This camera is awesome. Motion detection works great. Connectivity is really good mines hardwire which I prefer and picture quality is really good can read license plates unlike ring door bell

DEKCO 2K WiFi Surveillance Security CameraMost recent update: DO NOT BUY THIS MODEL. I have ordered many and they all have problems. However, the cameras, when working properly, are great. But you can't get them anymore. So... look on Amazon for the "5MP" version which is just barely different but not really. It's nearly the same and it works perfectly. I just ordered 4 more for my mother's house and they all work flawlessly, albeit they all struggle with connecting to Apple phones. The rest of this review was written BEFORE I bought the 5MP versions so keep that in mind. The following review is for the version you're seeing here on this page.Update: So the other cameras I bought that I hadn't installed yet all failed. All of them got stuck at the initial setup stage with just a blinking green light (which is not defined in the user manual). So I had to send all the cameras back except the one I was already using which still works. I also looked in the Questions and Answers area on Amazon on this product and I found out that I'm not the only one going through this. So apparently this is version 2 of their product which is a complete bust. Version 1 worked great. You can't buy version 1 anymore. So... I don't recommend you buy this product anymore. I've taken it down from a 4 star to a 1 star.Here is my original review:This review is for the DEKCO 2K WiFi Surveillance Security CameraSo let me just start by listing off all the things wrong with it. I'll get that out of the way first.1. The screws they give you are really cheap. It's easy to break them. Get better screws and you won't have to drill your holes first.2. The motor mechanism that turns left/right/up/down will burn out eventually. Try not to use it too much. It's not a video game. If it moves too much because it's tracking motion, it will eventually run out. And when looking down, it won't be able to look back up unless you go out there and turn it up yourself.3. The setup process can be a bit finicky sometimes. I've had to go through the exact same setup process four times until it finally took.4. The quality and volume of the microphone and speaker leaves a lot to be desired.5. The cloud option isn't very useful.6. There is no zoom feature. But you can "pinch" to zoom on your phone but that only lets you zoom in on the image on your phone. The camera, itself, doesn't actually zoom.7. Even with a porch light, when pitch black outside, the night vision only works to about 10-15 feet at best.I want to say that I really do like this camera. I like it so much that I went from purchasing 1 to purchasing 4 total (so far). I really wish it offered "starlight" technology instead of relying on the red lights because red lights attract bugs and thus sets off the motion detection all the time.I HIGHLY recommend getting a 2 or 3 year protection plan. After all, this device is made in China.I recently installed another one of these and it will be a little exposed to the weather. So we'll see how that goes. (edit: has gone very well)

I bought 5 of these cameras and installed on my lake house which is 1200 miles away from where I live. It is great being able to see what's going on. I set them on "record on motion" and the app makes it easy to see what triggered the recordings.I installed a Power over Ethernet (PoE) router for these, which meant no routing of extra power lines to each camera. A $60 PoE switch was definitely worth the investment here. I put a 128Gb micro-SD card in each, so no cloud subscription is required.I also put one of these in my garage so I could see if there is water from the well tank, softener, or heater there. Well worth the small incremental investment for my peace of mind.I highly recommend these and am kinda looking for more "use cases" to buy a few more :-)

Have purchased quite a few cameras from Reolink and the PoE series doesn’t disappoint. It provides a very clear picture in both day and night and offers 3 configurable quality modes (Fluent, Balanced and Clear) which allows a varying amount of bandwidth allowing one to access the camera over cellular networks which keeps your cost down. It’s very easy to install since there’s no need for both a power and Ethernet cable (requires PoE network switch).Pros- Easy to install using just an Ethernet cable (requires PoE network switch)- High quality picture/video both in day and night mode- Configurable quality modes of Fluent (lower quality, less bandwidth), Balanced (good quality, more bandwidth) and Clear (high quality, high bandwidth)- Can access directly via URL to display within 3rd party apps (i.e. MotionEye)Cons- Not really a con but it is PoE only and has no power cable like previous modelsHighly recommend it.
