Video Doorbell WiFi 2K Wired Camera, 4:3 Wide View Outdoor Camera | No Subscription Local Storage, AI Detection, 5G&2.4G WiFi, Two-Way Talk, Front Door Home Security, Customized Reolink Chime

This has been one of the best smart home purchases I've made. The video quality is excellent, with a clear, sharp image during the day, and installation was straightforward. One of the biggest reasons I chose this doorbell is that there are no required subscription fees. It supports local recording with a microSD card, so I don't have to pay a monthly fee to access my recordings. That was a huge selling point for me. I was also able to connect it to Home Assistant without any issues and then expose it to Apple HomeKit. Everything has been working reliably, and it's nice to have the flexibility of Home Assistant while still being able to view the camera through the Home app. One helpful tip is to spend a little time adjusting the motion detection zones and sensitivity after installation. It helps reduce unnecessary notifications while still catching important events. I also recommend having a porch light or other exterior lighting near the front door. The night vision works, but the image quality is noticeably better with some ambient light. I also used the Wasserstein angled doorbell mount to improve the viewing angle. It works, but it wasn't a perfect fit for this doorbell, so it can shift slightly over time. Overall, if you're looking for a video doorbell with excellent image quality, local storage, no mandatory subscription, and outstanding smart home integration, I highly recommend this one.

I was pleasantly surprised and how well these cameras worked! Installation and setup was seamless and easy! The option to use a micro SD card to capture footage for a long span of time was a game changer for me! They really mean NO SUBSCRIPTION NEEDED!!! I purchased this one, interior ones and external ones that I will also review! These seem not to clog up my network either like my older Zmodo cams (garbage now!). If you’re questioning if these are good or not, don’t! They are GO FOR IT!!!!! You’ll love them!!! Pro tip: purchase the “Blink” brand micro SD card (currently $29.99) and use with these, cheapest on the market for that size and it is a true 256gb card that works wonderfully with these cams!

After months of testing, this device is useless. They provided me an "RMA" to replace the device, but I've already replaced a prior device, so I do not expect a change. I've removed reolink connection to the Amazon service to see if doorbell rings could be answered, but they cannot. The device immediately dicsonnects after attempting to answer the call. I can watch footage as they are waiting but once I hit accept the doorbell goes off wifi and will not reconnect until I reboot my routers. Further update: After 2 weeks the memory card is unreadable and I cannot View my recordings. It was a 256Gb Amazon basics memory card. I swapped the same card to a Reolink PTZ wifi camera and it works just fine for over a month then I put a 128GB sandisk in the doorbell and it's been working just fine. Their support claim of 256GB is unwarranted. Second issue is that I have it connected to Alexa so that the Alexa Hub can theoretically display the doorbell. I tried to answer a ring in coming onto my phone but when I do it says that the connection is already in use or the speaker is already in use. So I was unable to communicate with the person at the door. I believe it's because Reolink is trying to establish the connection to the hub and then will not let my phone connect. After attempting to connect the device then went offline and I couldn't view the doorbell at all as stated below there's all kinds of strange connectivity issues. Basically rendering the doorbell not a doorbell. Guests ring and I cannot answer. If I try in person, I notice the device actually loses connection and flashes white light. The engineering on this device is so bad maybe you get lucky with it working but I highly do not recommend these unless you have a direct ethernet connection because the Wi-Fi radio on this is garbage (see video). Their support is useless people over in China trying to use ChatGPT responses that don't even make sense. Then if they can't help you (they never can) they just suggest a discount or replacement. My goodness it's torture. Update: After using this device for a few weeks, I found it randomly goes offline. I set up the device to have a priority connection to my TP-Link Wi-Fi 6 router mesh Network, and the signal is very strong. I've been back and forth with Reolink support, which is basically non-existent because they don't speak English and have some weird interpreting where they don't read my responses, asking the same questions over and over again. They tell me to put the device closer to my router and reset it a million times - they even said that I shouldn't mount it against a wall LOL. I reminded them that it is a doorbell. From other Wi-Fi Reolink devices that I have I also observe a similar problem with their connectivity issues. Periodically and I have to go reset the Wi-Fi or reboot the power to the router. I had the ring doorbell and the same location for 4 years straight with zero connectivity issues so I may just have to return back to ring unfortunately. If they can figure out how to design proper Wi-Fi receiver transmitter in their devices I would consider purchasing but for now I would not recommend. Setup An undesirable design choice for all Reolink cameras is connecting to your wifi by the camera reading a QR code from your phone. You have to play this game with the phone in front of the camera, moving it in and out, but the cameras struggle to read the code. Most other devices use Bluetooth or a temporary wifi hotspot to connect. The key is to set up the camera right next to your router so it has a great signal and is indoors before mounting so the lighting is just right. I had a hell of a time connecting to my AT&T Wifi 6 router just about 10 feet away through the exterior wall and into the attic. The Wi-Fi reception is excellent from the street, so it has nothing to do with my router. The Doorbell would connect on and off sporadically, making it difficult to complete the setup process. I had to keep resetting the device maybe six times. I noticed that the wifi signal was weak once connected, according to the doorbell (2 of the 3 bars). The only explanation is that Reolink could have done a better job designing their antennas for the doorbell. My Ring doorbell had no issues for 5 years. I thought the doorbell was an instant return because I could not connect until I changed the configuration to the "Use 5GHz band only" option, and then it's been solid for the last few days. I appreciate that the cameras are dual-band, but they don't seem to be designed to use both bands. All of my other Reolink cameras have connectivity issues if left on Dual Band mode, and I had to set my router to only use the 5GHz band for the camera specifically, on top of the camera being set to use 5GHz; otherwise, the camera would be inaccessible. Mounting: The mount is unsuitable for walls, and there is no place to fit their large electrical connectors. I changed to a smaller connector, which the Ring doorbell came with, and was able to shove it into the wall. They do not have a vertical angle mounting plate for hardie-board siding with a vertical tilt, so your camera will be pointing up towards the roof. They only provide a left/right angled bracket. Field of View: I don't like the field of view of this device as it appears to be designed to view vertically instead of horizontally. I do not need to view my porch roof but do want to see traffic across my front lawn to the driveway. The ring doorbell had a 360 fish eye, allowing me to see almost across my whole front lawn. The Reolink doorbell probably has a 90-degree FOV horizontally, which is unacceptable. You should plan to have other cameras to cover your property as this is meant just to cover your porch area. You cannot even see a person directly in front of your door knocking on your door, but don't worry they designed it so you could see the sky. Video: The quality is on par with Ring doorbell. I appreciate being able to select the quality mode to save on bandwidth while viewing over the phone. Detection: Like all Reolink devices, they can detect any motion (light changes or movement, vehicle, etc) and humans and allow you to filter on the event when viewing the timeline. This is a key differentiator from so many cameras that made me select Reolink (that and the on-board storage with free viewing). Like Ring, Reolink also has a Package detection. At first the package detection was going off repeatedly thinking my porch chair was a package. I turned down the package detection setting and it stopped the false detection and successfully captured an envelope dropped on the porch. Like all Reolink cameras I appreciate the detailed configuration options in smart detections. There is overall Motion Detection setting from 0-100 and then on top of that you can adjust whatever smart detection (pet, human, package) the device supports. It takes a few days of monitoring and tweaking those settings to get things optimal for your environment. For the most part it's pretty good and I opt to increase the false detections with more recording vs miss an important event. The great thing is that you can playback only the filtered events you wish to see and when you receive a phone alert, selecting the alert will load up that event directly. Ring doesn't do any of that. Motion event recording at detection of the event. You can set the post-motion recording time before it stops with 15, 30, 60 seconds, but not pre-event marking. Their cameras record before human detection to ensure you get the full footage even before detection. Ring doorbell would show me an event recording only when a person was basically at the door and turning away already unless they were walking slowly. Storage and Playback: The seller of Reolink devices is the subscription-free on-board device storage. Now, you can purchase a cloud storage plan if you like, but these devices also support FTP and standard NVR streams, so you can always back up your NVR. I used a 256GB SD card and so far I'm using 1GB/day which means I'll have 9 months of storage. That's insane. Bye-bye Ring subscription plan for $4/mo to see 10 days worth of "events". Playback allows you to pick a date, filter by Visitor, Any Motion, Person, and Package, which will remove all other detections in the timeline so your playback only shows those events. There is a "tile view" option showing you a sampled preview of frames for each tile and it has an icon on each tile as to which types of motions were detected (motion, person, package, etc). You don't have to scan through and watch endlessly each video (like Ring), you can quick scroll through the tiles to get a view of what occurred without watching. Playback speeds of 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16x are available saving time reviewing footage. Audio Quality: There is less background noise than Ring. Ring had so much background noise it was hard to hear almost, however, it could detect whispering at the edge of my property almost. This device picks up audio clearly. Chime: The doorbell comes with a chime that is configurable for different tones, unlike Ring, which makes you purchase a chime. Alexa Compatibility: This is compatible with Alexa, and all the supported motion alerts can be announced on your Alexa device. When pressed, the doorbell ring will also be announced on your Alexa hub/echo, and the live video will be shown. On the Echo/Hub doorbell tile, Amazon leaves their Ring device with the additional feature of displaying the last image but no image for Reolink, unfortunately. It would be nice to have the tile preview the last image on your Echo/Hub. My most significant issues are the field of view and the device setup difficulties.

Edit: Reolink support reached out to me to make things right. And so far, they have. They offered to send out a replacement unit even after acknowledging that I had willingly thrown my old unit out. They persisted in this request for 2-3 months before I finally said, as long as it's free of charge, be my guest. And my guest they became, as they shipped it out at no cost to me. Now, I don't know if the updated software or they updated the camera to cause this, but I would call this newest version they sent me OK, not great. Initial difference, my router immediately detected it as "Roku", which routers can get things wrong so it's not that big of a deal, but I thought I remembered it being picked up as something else initially. The camera itself also seems to be different. It still has some good clarity, but it seems suddenly plagued by intense smearing. The image around movement is clear and sharp, but when things start moving it's smeared incredibly poorly. I've tried several of the settings to fix this but nothing appears to be working so far. The chime itself actually works with this unit, as do push notifications, and the connection itself seems much more reliable than before. However, I still greatly wish they'd just enable the use of your home's built in chime over using a wirelessly connected one. Original Review: I've had enough trying to get this piece of junk to work. It's supposed to connect to my router through wifi, ring when someone presses the button, and alert me on the app when it happens. I connected it to my NVR and even gave it an SD Card. I've never been more frustrated with a machine than I have with this one. Don't get me wrong, the camera on it is great, clear and really usable. But that's it. The software in it sucks so bad that after 2-ish months of owning it I'm just throwing it away, it's not worth the hassle anymore. First, it refuses to keep a steady connection to my router. I'd have to put my router basically on the other side of my door for it to stay connected reliably, and I do not have a weak router. When it works it works great, but it's almost constantly disconnecting. Second, the push notifications are spotty at best, and non-existent at worst. I don't know how many times I've had to reset this camera because of something stupid, but it's more than I can count on one hand. Third, the chime. The awful, terrible, forced to be used chime. They REALLY need to make it so that you can just use your built-in chime if it exists because that sorry excuse for a piece of technology deserves less than the landfill it's going to rot in. When I first received the doorbell, the chime paired right up and worked exactly like expected. However, for some reason unknown to me, the chime unpaired itself and I had to try and re-pair it. But, the chime just don't do it. It beeps like it pairs, but the doorbell says the pairing failed. Right before I started typing this review I was trying to pair it for the last time, and I actually got it to pair, to my surprise. Only for the software to say that the chime wasn't connected. Are you kidding me? Not connected? While I was troubleshooting they were plugged in less than a foot from each other, and the chime can't connect to the doorbell? After what totals up to several hours trying to get it to pair over the course of me owning it? Nah, that's cool, I'm just going to smash it to pieces and throw it in the trash. I've never had the displeasure of working with something this frustrating before. I'm in IT and networking, none of the issues I've encountered with this doorbell should exist. It's just a waste of money and a terribly executed product. Being forced to use that sucky chime was really the kick in the teeth I needed to decide I'm never going to buy another Reolink product again.

Best. Doorbell. Ever. Period - no more to say than that, but I will. I've gone through 6 (yes 6) smart doorbells and every dang one has a major issue or requires a subscription. I don't need nor want a subscription. No, I don't. A SD card works just fine, thank you, and I do NOT want my video and conversations up on someone's server. Sorry, those are the rules. But this one is responsive - others take so long to start streaming video that I can literally be to the door before I can see who it is. This one is showing video before I can get out of my chair. It's intuitive - I could use the software day-1 without any training or getting lost. It's super easy to install (like the others) It's good at animal detection. Unlike that POS doorbell I bought locally. It's video quality is great - probably the best I've had so far, even against the "4k" doorbells (which aren't). I literally have zero complaints about this product. It makes me want to buy other Reolink products now, I'm that impressed. And remember - no subscription required. Happy day.

I upgraded to the Reolink Wired 2K Video Doorbell after getting tired of subscription‑based doorbells, and this thing has been outstanding. The video quality, responsiveness, and overall reliability make it a fantastic choice for anyone who wants a high‑performance doorbell without monthly fees. 2K Video Quality That’s Sharp and Detailed The 2K resolution is a huge step up from standard 1080p doorbells. Faces are clear Text on packages is readable Motion looks smooth Night vision is crisp The 4:3 aspect ratio is perfect for doorbells — you can see visitors head‑to‑toe and packages on the ground without awkward cropping. Rock‑Solid WiFi (Both 2.4G & 5G) The dual‑band WiFi support is a big win. My router is on the opposite side of the house, and the connection has stayed stable with zero dropouts. The wired power means it’s always ready — no battery to worry about. Smart Detection That Actually Works Reolink’s AI detection is surprisingly accurate. It can distinguish between: People Vehicles Packages Notifications are fast and meaningful, not spammy. You can also customize zones and sensitivity to avoid false alerts. Local Storage = No Subscription Required This is one of the biggest reasons I chose Reolink. Supports microSD Supports NVRs Supports Reolink’s own local storage options Everything stays local, private, and free. No cloud fees, no forced plans. Customized Reolink Chime Is a Nice Touch The included chime pairs instantly and has multiple tones and volume levels. It’s loud enough to hear across the house and feels more premium than most third‑party chimes. What I Love Most Super‑clear 2K video 4:3 view shows people and packages Accurate AI detection Dual‑band WiFi Local storage with no subscription Reliable wired power Easy setup and clean app interface What Could Be Better Requires existing doorbell wiring (not a con for me, but worth noting) The chime tones could use a few more modern options Bottom Line If you want a high‑quality wired video doorbell with excellent video, smart detection, and zero subscription fees, the Reolink 2K Wired Doorbell is one of the best options out there. It’s reliable, sharp, and packed with features without locking you into a monthly plan. Highly recommended.

I bought this cam to replace my previous Nest door bell cam for various reasons. And love it very much!! Pros of this cam : * Can store recordings locally to micro SD card you purchase separately. Recommend to buy one (which are super cheap) If you do not put a SD card in the cam, the cam will still work, you just would not be able to go back and look at recordings through the app. * Can setup FTP connection which will simultaneously work in conjunction with the micro SD card. So in the event someone damages the camera and steals the SD card- you still have a backup on your local FTP server. * You do not need a cloud service to use this cam, but Reolink does offer it. * The included chime is very nice and handy and easy to pair through the app, takes literally less than 1 min to do. * Overall Setup is a breeze and takes 10 mins or less. *This does work with Google Hub Assistant- You just need to go into the App under Cloud Settings -> Smart Home and enable the Reolink Devices you want to work with Google. Then go into your Google home app and sign into your Reolink account and let it discover the cams. The other nice thing is if you pair this with google, as soon as someone or something comes into sight of this cam, BEFORE they even get to the door and press the button, my google assistants throughout the house chime and let me know that the camera has spotted motion. *remote response time is very speedy. With my previous nest cam if someone rang the bell or was by my front door, it would take literal MINUTES to display or time out and by that time whatever was going on is over with. This cam displays within seconds. * When someone rings your doorbell, this cam will actually call your cell phone. You will receive an inbound call and on your phone display it will show the name of the camera ( whatever you called in during setup) you answer the call and you are immediately connected to the doorbell and chatting and view whoever is at your door. As for Cons- right now.. I really cannot think of any. If you are looking for an affordable video doorbell that does NOT need cloud services then I would recommend this product. Id give this device 100 stars if I could.

The doorbell camera itself is fine. 5MP image quality is good, the 4:3 aspect ratio actually shows packages on the porch, and being wired means no battery anxiety. The hardware does its job. The problem is everything around it. Reolink's software and support are where this product falls apart: The app is buggy and unreliable. Basic things like rearranging your camera order don't save — you drag things where you want them, leave the page, and they revert. Known bug, reported for over a year, still not fixed. The Home Hub integration is half-baked. If you're using this with a Reolink Hub, the HDMI monitor output is view-only with zero settings access. You can't even choose which cameras appear on which page of the grid. The Hub decides, and you're stuck with it. Reolink support is unhelpful. When you run into these issues — and you will — don't expect much. The community has better answers than official support does, which tells you everything. The ecosystem feels abandoned. These aren't feature requests. They're basic things that worked on $50 NVRs a decade ago. Reolink keeps releasing new hardware while the software rots. The doorbell hardware is a 4-star product trapped in a 2-star ecosystem. If you're just using it standalone with the app and have low expectations for software quality, it's okay. If you're building a whole Reolink system around a Hub, lower your expectations considerably.

El artículo es bueno, tiene buen sonido de altavoz, solo me gustaría que tuviera reconocimiento facial y recordar rostros como otros. Le falta identificar de forma clara en la línea de tiempo cuando una persona sea detectada, pero de ahí en fuera el producto es bueno, la resolución y el producto en general está perfecto. El producto tiene todos los cables indispensables para diferentes tipos de instalación e incluye el eliminador para conectarse directamente a una clavija, lo cual se agradece pues otras marcas no lo incluyen o tienen cables limitados.

To put it simply: if you're looking for an affordable, wired doorbell (no more batteries!) with great resolution, easy setup, and remote control, then this is your choice. Good job Reolink, great product and service.

Den hade PoE enligt websidan. Skitbra tänkte jag. Den har nätverkskontakt, men den saknar PoE helt och hållet. Köp den absolut inte om du behöver PoE. Modellbeteckningen är viktig innan du beställer. Är det W så är det INTE PoE utan Wifi. Är det P så är det PoE och kan drivas direkt från powerswitchen som en ip-kamera.

大抵、何処の家も、従来メーカーの画一的な商品が取付けてあり、面白味がないが、こう言った商品は、なかなか取付けている家は少ないので目立つし、気に入っています。

I recently purchased the Reolink Doorbell, and I am very satisfied with its performance. The video quality is excellent, the audio is clear, and the mobile app works smoothly. The motion detection and instant notifications are very accurate, which makes home security much better. Installation was easy, and it integrates perfectly with my Reolink NVR system. Overall, it is a reliable and high-quality doorbell camera. I highly recommend this product to anyone looking for a smart and secure doorbell.
