Wired Video Doorbell, 2K+ 5MP Smart Doorbell Camera with Chime

This doorbell works really well, and I'm very pleased with it. Would highly recommend. Based on previous experiences I would very much recommend a permanently powered doorbell like this rather than battery powered - as that's the only way you get good pre-event recording. I was able to wire it to existing doorbell wiring so it was very easy to install - you need a (min 12V, max 24V) supply for the doorbell - I already had a 24V transformer installed for the doorbell wiring due to a previous Ring Pro install, which worked perfectly. Many older UK doorbells are only 8V though - so check the voltage is high enough (or replace the transformer) if you want to use existing wiring. If you dont already have doorbell wiring, or it can't supply enough power then you can instead power it with the included plug-in power supply - a good length of cabling is included in the box, but you may have to drill a hole through your doorframe for it. But worth it! Once installed and powered it does the job brilliantly. Will integrate with alexa or google home. The included wireless chime works well. You can't buy additional chimes from reolink separately unfortunately - but apparently any programmable 433Mhz chime will work. According to the internet the KERUI M525 works for example. Because its a simple 433Mhz signal for the chime the doorbell will still ring even if your Internet connection is down! The wifi connection has been rock solid in any case. Helps that it supports both 2.4GHz and 5GHz!. You do have an ethernet port on the doorbell too so you can skip wifi altogether if you want to. The APP works well, alerts come through instantly. It can notify you for any motion, or it can detect a person and notify for that. The app connects pretty much instantly, and the video quality is great (including at night) Unlike many doorbells you have a complete choice as to where your footage is stored, and you do not have to pay a subscription. You can have the doorbell store video 1) On a MicroSD card on the doorbell itself. That's easiest, and costs nothing, but I'd recommend an additional storage option also for backup/security from one of the following... 2) Reolink Cloud service (£32.49/year) 3) Reolink NVR (check amazon for current price https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0CDW6N7V5 ) - One off fee, and once set up will store footage from the doorbell + other security cameras. Can record 24/7 with this. 4) FTP Server. The doorbell can transfer recordings via FTP to whatever FTP server you configure. This is what I have set up - an old Raspberry Pi with a large USB storage key. 5) RTSP / ONVIF stream. You can have your own NVR record 24/7 with this option. It can also e-mail clips to an address you configure if you want. Basically this doorbell is brilliant - It does everything I want - and leaves my previous Ring Pro (and then Blink) for dust, and all for just a one off purchase price!

So far I am really pleased. I went for the reolink because I'm a home assistant user and liked the idea of the integration it offers. But that's a project for a few weeks later. Install The unit itself is well constructed. I had an existing wired doorbell but had to do small upgrade as it only provided 8v. Ideally you need 16 to 24, so I purchased a 24v 60w Slimline LED driver, stripped out the old doorbell power supply and replaced it with the LED driver. It does come with a 24v plug which gives you another option and also it can use POE if you want, so plenty of options. It works on the 2.4ghz and 5ghz WiFi which is great. My only wish is that the sd card could be placed in the ringer rather than the doorbell Usage The doorbell is very responsive. It comes with a ringer unit and also integrates with Amazon and Google. Ive not got Google working yet but I think it is the Google side and not the doorbell. Yesterday we were out and had two activations of the doorbell being pressed. I cannot honestly believe how quick the response is. I spoke to both people and had no issues. One being a delivery driver and asked him to place package by the bins and all was good. I think it being on the 5ghz certainly helps. Field of view is really good as is the picture quality. It picks up people and animals, and yes every cat that has walked by gave me an alert, so may have a play with that setting. It's set up so that both my phone and my wife's phone gets alerted and if one answers then it stops ringing on the other. Overall and so far I am really impressed. Loads better than my old Google doorbell and a lot cheaper.

I looked at various other doorbell cameras from Eufy to Ring and settled on buying this for £96.99. For me the no on-going membership fee was important. I have it running with BlueIris as my DVR for continuous recording. I've also tried AgentDVR and that works well too. I did have it working with ONVIF detection, and I tried RTMP but I've settled on RTSP for now as it seems a little more reliable. I have the WiFi version and it does occasionally freeze for a few seconds and then picks back up. Some DVRs will skip these frames and so you'll see a jump, others won't and so it'll just speed up for a bit, with nothing lost. The in-built Person detection works well. We've had cats and cars go past our driveway and nothing was triggered with the person detection. Recording of motion is handled well and can be set up in the app. You can even set a Mask if you want to black out a section of the image from being recorded, e.g. a neighbors property. The camera integrates well with Home Assistant (HA). From HA you can change the auto reply, whether the camera records onto its internal SD card, it also gives access to the Person and Visitor (when the doorbell is pressed) detection. Allowing you to do stuff in the automations. For example when the doorbell is pressed I get a notification popup on our LG TV with the camera image showing. Be aware it does connect to the internet. I uses a few domains p2p pushx, etc. I blocked it from any internet access and the app stops working, but also not having access to an NTP server meant the time was wrong too. I've tried granting it access to port 9000 and a few other things, but can't get the app to work locally. Shame, but it doesn't matter to me much. The actual doorbell ringer is a separate device that plugs into an electrical socket. The Reolink app works well, and it's convenient to view local recordings of all reolink cameras. You can also change the settings from here. This camera does have the ability to do a time lapse, which for a doorbell becomes a cool toy. i.e. nice to play with initially and then I got bored off. It's a good camera with decent features, good quality picture at daytime and a decent one at night thanks to it's IR LEDs. It was very easy to setup. It has the ability to record any motion on to it's SD card. You can set up the doorbell to respond when you're not able to answer the door and set your own messages. Overall I'm happy, it works well and has integrated well into our house.

Just had to write a review on this particular camera doorbell. I initially had a Ring doorbell and like others, got fed up with their subscription charges and wanted something I just buy once and then have nothing to pay and all recordings kept on my SD card or setup to record via my CCTV camera setup and onto my NVR box. Due to the fact the Ring doorbell was run via battery power, I decided to get my local sparky in to hardwire the power to a bell of his choice and he choose the Tapo D235, everything was fine for a few days and then it started to lose connection, lag between motion and bell press, so alarm detection to our phones were delayed and I am convinced it was because my internet connection runs via 5ghz/2.4ghz and the Tapo only supports 2.4ghz, I did split the network and created a 2.4ghz only and then reconnected the bell to the split but again after a few days, connectivity issues came into the equation, thats when the research came into action and I searched for something better, low and behold THE REOLINK WIRED VIDEO DOORBELL. This bell is outstanding and not missed a beat since I installed it, crystal clear video both day and night, easy to set up, easy to use app and there is even a desktop (PC/Mac) app too. It maybe down to the fact that this bell supports 5ghz and must surely have a more superior antenna inside the bell but all in all, I would certainly recommend this bell to everyone who is looking to replace their subscription doorbells, you will not regret the change, if there is any critisism for the Reolink and that would be the bell only supports a maximum of a 256g SD card where as the Tapo had a 512g no big issue at all, just a users preference I guess with how much data they want to store before videos start to be overwritten. Marks out of 10 for this product ? A MASSIVE 10 and would certainly buy this again if I needed to.

If I could give it zero stars I would. Unpacked and installed the unit onto the wall next to the front door. The wifi router is in the hallway approx 5m form the doorbell. That's when the fun started..!! In the Reolink app you have to initially pair the doorbell with a QR code that the app will display on your phone. No way would it recognise the QR code, no matter what I did. Eventually I had to disconnect the door bell, wire it via the included power supply (I was using the original doorbell transformer to power it), and then stand under the router to pair it. After a couple of attempts it finally worked. Connect via 2.5ghz wireless signal and refitted it to the door. Very impressed with all the functions and quality and spent a bit of time configuring it to our requirements. The following morning tried to access the doorbell via the app which told me it was disconnected. Had to factory reset the doorbell and go through the same procedure to reconnect using a 5ghz wifi signal this time. Everything worked as normal for the rest to the day but that evening the app had kicked out the doorbell again... Over the next two days the same issues were occurring no matter what I tried so I said enough was enough... I removed the doorbell with all it's fittings, contacted Amazon who facilitated a return with free shipping. Well done to Amazon for a hassle free return and once proof of postage was received I got a full refund. I have now purchased a Tapo doorbell which is working without a glitch and it is doing exactly what it says on the tin..!!

I've now used two of these, this one reviewed and the other being the PoE version. From a functionality perspective, they operate identically if you put the WiFi / wired LAN difference aside. The camera and interface work great. I love the fact it's a totally open system. Whilst Reolink offer cloud support with a mobile app which I have used and works great, this is not mandatory. If you want to use the device just at home with no cloud connectivity and interface with something like Home Assistant, this is totally possible and works great although I have not yet been able to get two-way audio working with the HA plugin: two-way audio only seems to work with the app that requires the camera to be cloud-connected. Picture quality is pretty good. It offers two profiles, a low bitrae, fast response which is great if you have limited bandwidth. The high quality feed is very good providing lots of detail providing you have decent light. In darkness, the camera uses infrared lights to produce a black and white picture and the quality and detail of course aren't as good. Still functional, but not as precise as a good naturally-lit environment. The camera comes with an angled wedge allowing you to have it pointing slightly off axis, great if you want to angle more towards the centre of your door. Summary: Pros: - Works well, very good picture quality when daylight - App works well, providing two-way audio - App does not require a subscription to be functional. This beats competitors like Ring hands down! - App is not required - integration possible with Home Assistant and you are not held ransom if the cloud functionality is removed. Cons: - Two-way audio not possible unless using the cloud-connected app - Picture quality in dimly-lit and night don't provide as much detail.

I recently replaced my Nest doorbell with the Reolink 2K+ Wired Video Doorbell Camera, and I couldn't be happier with the decision! The installation was straightforward, and I appreciated that it allows for both hardwired and plug-in options. The video quality is impressive, delivering clear 2K resolution, which makes it easy to identify visitors even in low light. One of my favorite features is the human detection capability paired with app alerts. It’s reassuring to receive notifications on my phone when someone is at the door, and the two-way audio works flawlessly, allowing me to communicate directly with visitors. I also love that it integrates seamlessly with Frigate, enhancing my home security system without any additional monthly fees. The only minor caveat is that the chime is a bit louder than I expected, but I'm getting used to it! For anyone looking to enhance their home’s security with a reliable video doorbell, I wholeheartedly recommend the Reolink 2K+. Its features are not only user-friendly but also effective in keeping an eye on your front door. I would definitely buy this again!

I’ve used a Eufy doorbell for years and was never truly happy with it. The biggest issue was always the delay it took forever to connect, and by the time the feed finally loaded, the person at the door was already gone. Even when it did connect, there was such a massive lag during two-way communication that it was basically useless. I switched to Reolink, and the difference is night and day honestly, it’s at least ten times better. Connection is instant, every single time, with absolutely no delay. Playback is smooth, and the camera quality is sharp and clear. Everything just works exactly how it should. So far, so good zero complaints at all. If you’re tired of slow, unreliable doorbells, I highly recommend Reolink. It simply does the job perfectly.

Je suis très satisfait de cette sonnette. Je préfère largement un modèle filaire plutôt qu’un modèle sur batterie : pas besoin de penser à la recharger régulièrement, c’est beaucoup plus pratique au quotidien. Lorsqu’une personne sonne, on reçoit immédiatement un appel sur le téléphone, ce qui est vraiment pratique, même lorsqu’on n’est pas à la maison. J’ai choisi l’abonnement Cloud plutôt que l’enregistrement sur carte SD. À mon avis, c’est plus sécurisé : si quelqu’un vole ou détruit la sonnette en emportant la carte SD, les enregistrements restent disponibles dans le cloud. J’apprécie également les réponses rapides préenregistrées, ainsi que la possibilité d’enregistrer ses propres messages vocaux. C’est une fonction très utile lorsque l’on est absent. Le carillon intérieur est suffisamment puissant et s’entend très bien dans la maison. Pour le moment, tout fonctionne parfaitement. Reste à voir la fiabilité sur le long terme, mais mes premières impressions sont très positives.

Bon voilà mon portail est loin, j'ai pas prévu d'alimentation sonnette et jusqu'à présent j'avais une sonnette a pile avec un récepteur dans la maison. J'en ai eu mare je voulais surveiller mon extérieur et voir qui sonne a ma porte sans me coller à la fenêtre ce qui n'est pas discret. Est-ce réussi avec ce produit, regarder en image : Une version de nuit en vidéo je pense que ça parle de soi même. Ce que j'ai aimé c'est le nombre d'accessoire fournie, la facilité d'installation et de configuration. Mon portail est a 30m de la maison, avec une journée wifi extérieur c'est parfait. Pas besoin de batterie j'ai acheté en plus un transformateur 24v que j'ai piqué sur le moteur de mon portail et le tour est joué. Une saignée dans le pilier et le câble est vraiment bien caché. La sonnette sonne a merveille, nombreux réglage possible et message d'absence si on le souhaite. Il y a même un mode alarme et ça fonctionne super bien. A acheté les yeux fermés j'ai même pu surveiller ma maison pendant mes vacances. Bien sûr ne pas oubliier d'acheter une carte micro sd pour l'enregistrement des vidéos et alerte . Je recommande +++

Die schwarze Reolink Video Türklingel Wifi 5MP ist jetzt seit ein paar Tagen bei uns in Betrieb und ich bin im Großen und Ganzen sehr happy damit. Es zeigt sich wieder mal, daß man manchmal einfach ein Produkt selber ausprobieren muß, um zu wissen, ob in Rezensionen erwähnte Nachteile für einen persönlich tatsächlich ebenfalls auftauchen/relevant sind. Im einzelnen war ich nach dem Lesen von Bewertungen skeptisch, was die Stabilität/Qualität des WLAN-Signals betrifft und unter welchen Umständen und wie schnell man an das Videosignal kommt. Ebenfalls interessant für mich war der Blickwinkel bzw. wie gut Personen, die direkt vor der Tür stehen, zu sehen sind und wie reaktionsschnell die Klingel ist. Es stellt sich heraus, dass alle erwähnten Punkte für mich nach dem Testen keine Kritikpunkte mehr sind: 1. das WLAN-Signal ist sehr stabil und reicht locker aus, um das Video-Signal zu übertragen (die Fritzbox steht im Wohnzimmer - zwischen der Reolink Türklingel und dem Router ist also eine Innentür aus Holz und dann die massive Steinaussenwand, Distanz ca. 13m), 2. der Videostream ist immer über die App sichtbar, auch ohne Aktivierung der Klingel. Der Aufbau des Streams dauert ca. 3 Sekunden nach Öffnen der App. Das geht auch unterwegs, ohne dass ich im WLAN Zuhause sein muß. Wenn die Türklingel bzw. der Chime sich meldet, öffne ich die App, um nachzusehen, wer vor der Tür steht. 3. der Blickwinkel nach Montage mit dem beigefügten Keil ist so, dass man die Person vor der Tür gut sehen kann. Die Montage und Einrichtung per App sind wirklich sehr leicht zu erledigen, man wird sogar per Stimme durch den Prozess geleitet. Leider war die Spannung meines alten Türklingelkabels nicht ausreichend für die Reolink; ich musste im Keller das mitgelieferte Netzteil der Reolink einstecken und habe es dann mit der Gegenseite meines Klingelkabels verbunden, danach funzte es. Die Möglichkeit, über die App mit Besuchern zu sprechen, ist toll und die Sprachqualität gut. Nun zu den Kritikpunkten, die für mich übrig geblieben sind: 1. ich hätte gerne, daß nach dem Klingeln die App automatisch öffnet, damit man sofort das Videobild hat. Das geht wohl nur über eine weitere Automatisierungsapp, wie Tasker o. ä.. Das habe ich aber noch nicht ausprobiert. 2. es ist möglich, daß bei Bewegungerkennung automatisch Aufnahmen (z. B. auf eine Micro-SD-Karte) gemacht werden, die man sich dann z. B. am Ende des Tages bequem über die App anschauen kann. Man kann auch den Schwellenwert/Empfindlichkeit dafür einstellen und tote Zonen definieren (z. B. öffentliche Bereicht), die mittels schwarzer Balken nicht sichtbar sind. Leider löst JEDE erkannte Bewegung auch zwingend einen Klingelton des Chimes aus, was total nervig ist!! Nachtrag: mein Fehler: man kann einstellen, dass der Chime nur angeht, wenn geklingelt wird und nicht bei Bewegungen. 3. die Möglichkeit des Anschlusses des Türöffners besteht leider nicht, eine Fernöffnung der Tür geht also nicht. Ich kann die Reolink Türklingel Wifi in schwarz wirklich empfehlen, trotz der Kritikpunkte. Das Preis-/Leistungsverhältnis stimmt, die Bildqualität auch und die Bedienung ist gut.

Quelques difficultés à me connecter au wifi, mais j’y suis arrivé après plusieurs essais. Le reste est parfait et correspond à la description.
