Video Doorbell Camera, Battery Version, 2K 150°x150° Head-to-Toe View, 2.4/5 GHz Dual-Band WiFi, Person/Vehicle/Package Detection, Two-Way Talk, No Monthly Fees (Chime not Included)

This video has four major things going for it: it’s non-subscription, it’s easy to set up, has a lot of features, and works beautifully. The same can’t be said for the two previous units I had that were unreliable, hard to set up, and lacked intelligible instructions. Also, Reolink’s customer service is the fastest and most helpful of any I have ever dealt with.

Excellent security measures for older adult. Great product and price

The camera has good resolution, works well as a doorbell both at night and during the day. Package detection works. I also like the fact that there is no subscription. Ok what does not: The car detection triggers and shows you video after the car is 1/2 way down the street. Or it triggers on a person right when they’re pressing the door bell. I have had the wifi feature disconnected constantly. I have a WiFi booster right next to the door. I have also made sure the camera is on the booster. I have the hub but its WiFi is so weak it can’t reach the camera. Reolink software is not the best. Connecting the external door bell chimes was a super frustrating experience. It was supposed to be super easy. But the chimes came tied to a factory doorbell. I had to reset the chimes and then pair them with the doorbell. I had to search on line what the issue was. I’m not impressed with this camera. Is a battery camera but I’m powering it with my door bell button wires. It never really worked with the existing chime. I had to get there chimes to get the system working. Even then I had to the auto nation to to get them to ring.

I purchased the Reolink battery-powered doorbell mainly because Reolink has gold status with Home Assistant — that was my #1 reason. I already own several Reolink cameras and have been very happy with them. This was meant to replace a Eufy doorbell, which I liked overall, but it didn’t integrate with Home Assistant and their support left a lot to be desired. Unfortunately, this doorbell hasn’t lived up to expectations. Setup: I ran into issues setting this up with an iPhone. Not impossible, but definitely not smooth. Powering: The biggest issue is the battery. It drains quickly in high-traffic areas, meaning constant recharges. The 24V option is only a “trickle” charge — if the battery drains fully, it can take a half-day just to boot back up, and days to recharge. During this time, the device can also get hot. Wi-Fi: On 2.4GHz, it’s fairly stable, but notifications are slower. On 5GHz, unless your router is right next to the doorbell, expect frequent disconnects and occasional full power cycles just to reconnect. Motion Detection: Not great. I ended up using an external mmWave sensor with Home Assistant to trigger snapshots and notifications more reliably. Mounting: Mounting on siding can be tricky. If you have a 3D printer, you’ll be much happier printing a sturdier custom mount. Home Assistant Integration: This was supposed to be the selling point, but you’ll need the Reolink hub — the doorbell won’t integrate without it. Bottom line: I love most of Reolink’s products — they’re usually reliable and integrate beautifully. But this one? In my opinion, it’s a flop. Unless you want to tinker, recharge constantly, and DIY your way out of problems, I’d suggest looking at other options. TL;DR Battery drains fast, trickle charge is slow and hot, Wi-Fi is flaky, motion detection is weak, setup on iPhone was a hassle, and siding mount is awkward (unless you 3D print your own). Needs the hub for Home Assistant. Edit: I raised the star level to 4, honestly it is a decent product as long as you use it as a stand alone door bell. I do still feel that the customer should be able to understand the limitations prior to buying the product, “clearly and concise” descriptions.

Let me start by saying I love Reolink products. I've been waiting for the battery wireless wifi doorbell release for some time and finally got it. It was set up on the first try in less than 5 minutes. Super easy! Since I live in a condo and didn't want to drill holes in the stucco I chose to mount mine with double sided tape on my storm door. The camera and audio quality is amazing in both daylight and at night! I've had problems with other wireless cameras on the front patio not capturing people, deliveries, animals, etc because the wifi on their device couldn't keep a connection. I've had absolutely no connectivity issues with this Reolink camera which is amazing because my router is located at the back of the condo nowhere near my front door. Their app is also very stable unlike the other brand I've tried. It's also nice to be able to see all my cameras in one app. I'm very happy with this purchase and am glad I expanded my reolink system with this wireless battery wifi doorbell. Highly recommend.

Really nice video doorbell. Pretty easy to install and set up if you read the instructions correctly. Like the fact that it can be either battery or hardwired and worked with my old electric doorbell chime which is a nice feature. Only issue is the lack of storage for playback unless you get a storage card. I must have missed this but have one coming. Coming from a RING system this is just as nice without the monthly fee.

Brilliant bit of kit. We first bought a similar Eufy doorbell and were intensely disappointed with the poor battery life, poor app with limited zoning features, and either constant false motion notifications or failure to detect relevant events. We chose to return the Eufy doorbell and try this Reolink one and it’s now like night and day. The Reolink doorbell has been consistently good. No more false alarms, better detection, better picture quality, better battery life (ours has been in use for almost a month and still has over 50% battery on a single charge!), and a much more intuitive and customisable app as well. The only downside is that you will need to purchase a separate chime for the doorbell if you don’t already have a compatible one, which will increase the overall price, but I’d say the quality you get is absolutely worth it.

One of the best doorbell with features never seen in other doorbells but... But there is a problem which i am discussing with Reolink is that this new 2k doorbell the below don't work which maybe a new firmware needed of a but with the current application need to be updated. 1. Says format successfull but SD Card still not formated. 2. Album shows empty so you can not delete unwanted captures. 3. Wide view doesn't work it flips but picture still small n not Wide. The rest is 100% perfect 👌 and the best of that u can limit the detection area so card and people passing far are not detected, the detection will tell if it's a person or a car. I may return this product becuse Amazon seems they couldn't fix my problem because the DoorBell was from Germany

Good: No cloud subscription, works with existing chimes, easy to install, camera is of adequate quality. Seems to drip charge off the existing wiring. Supports a wide range of voltages from the wiring. Bad: Really needs better API and integration possibilities (for example to work with Home Assistant, or Apple HomeKit - to do that you need the Reolink hub). Notifications seem really hit and miss, sometimes we get them, sometimes we don't, sometimes we get too many - at least the doorbell always works. App is the usual badly developed poor UX from China nonsense. It's a little too easy to remove.

Brak wsparcia dla obsługi google home (naciśniecie przycisku dzwonka nie jest obsługiwane mimo opcji do wyboru w aplikacji google home), kolejny duży problem to brak jednoczesnej obsługi NVR i chmury więc albo mamy kamerę podpiętą pod rejestrator i dane są bezpieczne (lokalnie NVR) albo działa niezależnie (z kartą sd wewnątrz). Podłączony pod NVR nie powiadamia w aplikacji reolink że ktoś dzwoni i brak podglądu. Suport o tym wie i pracują nad tym problemem ale nie wiadomo kiedy i czy będzie to działać kiedykolwiek poprawnie. Brak w zestawie Reolink Chime którego nie idzie dokupić

This product delivers exactly as advertised, and even exceeds expectations in some areas. For me, the standout feature is the exceptional battery life. It lasts so long that I honestly can’t remember the last time I charged it—easily two months or more between full charges. That’s a huge improvement over my previous device from a well-known brand, which required much more frequent charging. Overall, I’m very impressed.
