PoE Doorbell Camera Wired with Chime, 5MP HD Smart Video Doorbell | 180° Wide View, AI Detection, Video Call, No Monthly fees for local storage, Remote Access, Waterproof

The image quality of this is nothing short of amazing. Showed it to my neighbour who just bought a Ring Doorbell and they thought this one was a lot better. There isn't a lot of scope for zooming in before things get pixelated but that's really not what a doorbell camera is for. If you want that, buy a 4K security camera. The night vision is particularly good and only uses a single red LED. I have another ReoLink camera and that has about 6 LEDs which really isn't very discrete, but this single LED is fine. I bought the PoE version of this doorbell because I really didn't want to mess about with batteries, or worry about WiFi connections and the like. I knew it would be a challenge getting the network cable there but I figured once it was done, it was done and if I wanted to swap it out for a different camera later I could. I'm very glad I went this way. Before I went to all the effort of the install I set the doorbell up just sitting on a table in the hall and it all worked really well. Setup was dead simple using the Reolink app even though I don't intend to use it long term. The chime is loud enough to wake the dead which was one of my concerns as I'm a bit of a night owl so it's not at all uncommon for the existing doorbell to wake me up. This one will easily do that, it's just a shame that it takes our last plug socket in the hall, but it was that or batteries. I put it off for about a week or more but eventually I tackled the install. It took me about 3.5 hours but 90% of that was me getting the network cable to the door. I had to go from my network switch which is under the stairs, drill through the external wall into the garage, along the wall in the garage, drill through the cladding in the front of the garage, drill through into the porch, hide it all up inside the window sill and eventually out to where the doorbell mounts on the doorframe. The cable is all nicely hidden except for one small run up the outside porch wall. The actuall doorbell install couldn't be simpler and took about 10 minutes! I particularly like that there's no monthly sub for this doorbell which honestly for what they off on those that charge this I think is just a money grab. I plug it into my network and use the software on my Synology NAS. It just works. Flawless.

I wanted to use this for a couple months before leaving a review. Actually, I very rarely if ever leave any reviews, but I am so pleased with this door camera that I must inform other Amazonians. It arrived all nicely packaged, as expected. The setup was a doddle - you attach a POE cable into it and it works straight out. When I am indoors, I get a gentle sound on my phone to tell me someone is at the door, or if they ring, my phone rings. If I am driving, my car sound opens up and I talk to the visitor while driving (hadsfree of course!! :). As I respond, the response is heard outside immediately. It's got a few pre-recorded messages ("you've knocked at the wrong door" !! :). You can set the size of moving object at the front door to trigger the alerts hence ignoring cats and birds. Picture from the camera is very clear, transferred in real life. Bandwith used is about 200-400kB/s (according to camera). I slotted a 32GB micro SD into it and it records events, overwriting the oldest ones. Playback is available immediately; plays well, continuous stream, with sound, just perfect. AND IT IS NOT FORCING ME TO SUBSCRIBE, OR HAVE ANY "SMART" APPLICATIONS OR ANY OTHER MILKING "APPS". Just a door camera working for me, controlled only by me, on my LAN. PERFECT!! One single thing to bear in mind is, your POE switch must be a powerful one. My Netgear GS108PE couldn't power this up. Another one I bought, a GS305EPP, provided enough juice for this to fire up and remain fired and stable for the last 3+ months. BTW the GS3055EPP is powering this camera simultanously with Ubiqiti U6 Pro WiFi dish; both are stable and happy. Also, I connected this through a 16+ years old Cat5 cable (it was buried in the internal walls and connecting front entrance wall to my utility room some 7 meters away).

Unhelpful product comparisons: I'm only reducing 1 star just because of how long I had to search and research to understand all the difference between the various new doorbell cameras and the old one. I should be able to learn everything I want to know on the product page or on the company site. The more time spent on other sites looking things up, the more chance I could end up buying something else. In general I knew the difference but there weren't specifics about the chimes and what each camera's limitations are like why does the colour of the camera have to dictate the field of view? (Doesn't that help a knowledgeable naughty person know the limitations of a camera from a distance just by its colour?) You have the POE doorbell camera, the wired one and the battery powered one. But did you know that the POE one can be powered via wires as well? Did you know that the black POE gives you a wide field of view and the white one flips that 90 degrees and allows you to see more of the ground and the sky, if you want to keep a constant recording on your parcel delivery at the doorstep. So the white one is better if your doorway is kind of hidden because there is no point in having a wide field of view. Background: Any way, I had a version 1 POE doorbell camera and wanted to add an additional chime that wasn't an Alexa or 3rd party device. Version 1's can only work with the chime that came paired with them apparently. Thinking about it now, I probably should have physically checked that for myself before spending more money. Who knows what unannounced software updates were made. The V1 system worked fine with no issues but the added chime would be a very helpful addition long term, so I went and upgraded. Now I can have up to 5 chimes. Installation: This device and the old one more or less looks the same, but this one seems a bit more refined, slim and smoother. Installation takes seconds because I was able to just connect it to the backplate from the previous model and as someone with an NVR system and full cameras, the system pick up on the addition of the POE doorbell camera. However, the software on windows and the app lets down the whole process. For me, it found the new camera but won't let me see the footage unless I got deep in to the settings. The space that the old camera held remains and can't be deleted. I ended up resolving this nuisance but I couldn't possibly tell you what specifically worked. I think I logged out of the whole system on the app and logged back in again, but this was after many settings change and deletion attempts and attempts at software updates for the mobile and windows software. As of right now, everything is working fine and it has given me a chance to look at some new settings and really increase the quality of footage that the whole system takes. I would easily recommend this over any subscription based ones depending on the persons specific requirements. Overall, I am still happy with Reolink and the ease of access and freedom from subscriptions that it provides me, but I feel that it just needs refining and some bug removal.

After buying 2 others that failed quickly, I decided to buy this as I have a Reolink NVR system already. I was put off a bit due to having to run a cat cable 20M upstairs and through the floorspace to the rear of the house, this meant a further purchase of the cable. Anyway bought everything and spent 3 hours running the cable and when I first booted it up I was very impressed by the quality especially at night, it is quick to respond but is a little slow to send notifications to my phone (might be my router settings). The chime is plenty loud enough. Just to clear everything this is the POE version, Detection is quick and reliable (depending on your setup), viewing angle is a little bit fisheye but not as bad as previous cameras and quality is very good, compared to the others I bought the price is very reasonable. The picture has been cropped for privacy reasons. Incidentally I ran a cat5A cable without any issues.

POE!!!! Great sound and visibility!!! Almost the same cost as a 180-degree camera, but it's worth it. Great software and quality—just the theft protection is weak! I recommend covering the hole at the bottom where it can be removed with double-sided tape. I've had various doorbells—but this one is the best (POE/instant preview), good sound, and the only one that can preview on both my computer and phone simultaneously and easily. I'll connect it to the NVR when I do that. I bought it because my neighbor keeps waking me up with her screams at the door. This will help.

Having already installed a Reolink PoE CCTV setup, buying this was a no-brainer. The camera itself works very well, and installation via PoE Cat6 ethernet is straightforward. That said, the included cable is only around 1 metre long, so unless your NVR is very close by, you will almost certainly need to buy a longer cable, as I did. I also think 4K quality would have been a welcome improvement. This could easily have been a 5-star product if a little more thought had gone into the physical design. Like other reviewers, I found that the casing did not fit flush, leaving noticeable gaps. More concerning, no matter how securely you fix the backplate to the wall, it feels as though a mischievous vandal or would-be thief could simply pull away the front cover and leave you without a camera. A simple retaining screw would have solved this. Because I mounted mine to masonry, even with the provided plate a flush fit was impossible, and the fixing screws remain visible from above, which makes me suspect they may rust fairly quickly. My biggest criticism, however, is the size of the hole Reolink seem to expect you to drill into your home. It is absurdly large, significant enough for a big coin to fit through. I chose to drill a more sensible cable-sized hole and fit my own RJ45 plug instead, but because of the angle of the internal coupling it became obvious that Reolink really do expect you to make the oversized hole. To avoid putting too much stress on the cable, I ended up having to chisel away part of the brickwork just to get a proper fit. So yes, the camera works well, day or night, though not great quality. The doorbell function is terrific, though the choice of chimes is limited. Hooked to an NVR, hours of recording are available, though an internal memory card is a useful alternative. Answering your door to callers via your phone is definitely possible through the app, and is a great feature that adds security and convenience. If you already have a Reolink CCTV setup, this is still a worthwhile addition and, in my view, better than the ubiquitous Ring system. But for this to be a true 5-star product, Reolink need to put more thought into the fit, security and ease of installation.

Running Home Assistant on a home server and was looking for a doorbell with local recording, no subscription cost and the ability to stream over the network - this doorbell has proved great. My house faces into a busy street, so being able to limit notifications was important. I have it set up using motion masks in the app so that it only notifies me when a person steps onto the area in front of my door (an actual person, not just movement), but not when they're just walking in front of my house. Every time someone enters the zone I've setup, it gives me a notification, as well as a notification if someone presses the doorbell. Previously, I was constantly having to run downstairs and go to the door - now I can just talk to them through the app and if it's someone I recognise (Amazon delivery driver) I can send pre-recorded quick messages which play through the speaker ("please leave the package on the doorstep, thanks"). I have a 128gb SD card in the back of it which records any time anyone is on my property, or presses the doorbell and the app is easy to review any recordings which have been made through the day. The motion detection seems accurate and it doesn't record any false presence. It also hasn't missed anything either. My wife loves the app, its very user friendly and easy to set up and provides real time viewing of the door or sending messages. She can also watch clips from any of the events which were recorded on the SD card. On a more technical note, I also have it streaming directly to my server which is running Home Assistant and Frigate. The feed was easy to setup, running a 2560x1920 30fps stream at excellent quality which is currently recording 24/7 onto my server, as well as a substream that's 640x480 and 15fps (frame rate configureable) which takes up barely any bandwidth and is used for previews and frigate AI detection. I'm using the RTSP feeds, which are working perfectly, but know its also possible to use http flv feeds if required. For Home Assistant, you can either integrate via the Frigate integration, or directly using the Reolink integration which works very well in itself - was quite impressed with the all of the available options for configuration directly from HA. In terms of setup, the only bit that took time was figuring out how to format an SD card in 128gb size using FAT32, which seemingly you can't do in windows by default (needed to download some special software), but other than that just plug it into a PoE network switch and it was dead easy and basically everything worked out the box. Would recommend and probably going to buy more Reolink cameras after this.

Bought full Reolink full setup, NVR, 5 cameras, Poe doorbell, 10 months ago. Was well happy with the performance of the setup. I had trouble with the doorbell but Reolink helped me sought it out. I was well impressed with the overall package but after a firmware update the doorbell doesn't work, a Reolink firmware update has managed to stop it working. After the update the Doorbell drives us mad with notifications, you can mess with the doorbell settings like sensativative but nothing it makes no difference. Even just putting a light on in the house makes the bell send a detection notification, even changing a setting in the software makes a notification arise on my mobile. I ordered a new Reolink doorbell from Amazon but that made no difference, sent that back. Come on Reolink get your act together, stop messing with the software when the setup is working perfectly.

Writing a short review from the experience of having used this device for around 6 months. For privacy reasons I will not be showing any photos of the picture quality in this review Chose this as a video doorbell because it did not require any cloud integration to work, record footage, and so forth. Camera is powered over PoE, but can also be powered over doorbell wiring (if you want to for some reason). Because it uses a wired network connection the connection is always stable and not affected by your wireless connection. Not having to replace batteries is also a great benefit. Granted, you must be in a place where you can route an Ethernet cable. The way the mounting hardware works the cable has to come through the wall right behind the doorbell and not from the top or bottom. However, if you are a bit handy or own a 3d-printer you could easily work around it if need be. I created a model on Printables that should allow you to guide the cable from the bottom. Image quality for it’s intended use is great, you can see a lot of detail, field of view easily allows you to see people approaching from the side and night vision also works great. I would say perfectly fit for purpose. The software is not the nicest, the app has a store page for other Reolink products / services. Which mostly seems like an ad to me. It is not always the easiest to navigate and I am unsure about how secure the infrastructure is. It does work well enough, push notifications work. And I have had no major issues with it. The biggest upside on the software side is that the camera can record locally to a Micro-sd card or to a file server on the network (have not tested the later) so no need to pay any additional monthly fees. If you set it to only record on person detection, even a small 64GB Micro-sd card should offer plenty of space. Person detection works quite well too. Included chime also works alright does what it should, has a few tunes to choose from, and it should integrate with other chimes too, but I have not tested that. Nor have I tested the home-assistant integration. Overall I would say the doorbell is great. Software could use a little polish, but besides that not much more to wish for.

Excellente sonnette vidéo PoE avec une très belle qualité d'image en 2K. Mon portail se trouve à 120 m de la maison et, malgré cette distance, elle fonctionne parfaitement via un câble Ethernet CAT 6E : aucun problème d'alimentation ni de qualité vidéo. L'installation est simple et le kit est complet, avec notamment un support incliné à 15° et un carillon à branché sur une prise de courant. L'application Reolink est très complète et permet de nombreux réglages : notifications sur smartphone, zones de confidentialité, mode nuit, détection, alarme à distance, etc. Dès qu'un visiteur sonne, je reçois un appel sur mon GSM ainsi que sur celui de mon épouse, où que nous soyons. Nous pouvons voir et parler en direct avec la personne devant le portail, ce qui est particulièrement pratique pour les livraisons. Seul bémol : le carillon fourni communique en radio sur 868 MHz et ne fonctionne pas à 120 m de distance. J'avais pensé que le signal passerait également par le câble Ethernet, mais ce n'est malheureusement pas le cas. Malgré ce point, je suis très satisfait de mon achat et je recommande vivement ce produit.

Miałem duże problemy ze sparowaniem dzwonka z kamerą. Support polecił ręczną aktualizację firmware urządzenia NVR co rozwiązało problem. Mimo wszystko nie wiem, czy bez NVR dałoby się to zrobić. W każdym razie byłoby 5/5 gdyby nie początkowe problemy z instalacją EDIT Kamera działa bardzo dobrze ale samnprodukt jest beznadziejny - nie da się sparować kamery z dołączonym dzwonkiem

Very stable and, no issues at all..

Nach langem suchen hab ich endlich die richtige Türkamera gefunden. Die Kamera bietet Lokale Datenspeicherung auf microSD, FTP und NAS, natürlich auch in die kostenpflichtige Cloud (wenn man das will). Installation: Da die Kamera keinen Akku hat ist der Installationsaufwand höher als bei der Konkurrenz mit Akku, aber dafür entfällt auch die Wartung durch lästiges aufladen 1x Monat (wer jetzt behauptet die akkus der anderen Modelle halten 6 Monate hat entweder keine Freunde und bekommt keinen Besuch oder sagt nicht die Wirrheit). Installationsmaterial liegt bei und auch ein kleiner Winkel zum schräg montieren. Das POE Kabel geht nach hinten weg und lässt sich mit etwas fummeln gut einstecken. Einmal Installieren und damit ist die Sache für immer erledigt. Bildqualität: Sowohl schärfe als auch die Farben sind wirklich gut. Der Sichtbereich ist auch super. Aber von der Farbigen Nachtsicht bin ich begeistert. Die Kamera wurde einfach in mein Synology System integriert und dient auch als Überwachungskamera. (2 Fliegen mit einer Klappe) Funktion: Klingeln: die Benachrichtigung erfolgt innerhalb von 1-4 Sekunden recht flott und bisher 100% zuverlässig. Auch ohne Internet erfolgt die Benachrichtigung wenn man im selben WLan ist :) Personenerkennung: Absolut top, man muss Sie einmal etwas anpassen aber dann klappt das perfekt (ohne Fehlerkennungen) Audio/Gegensprechanlage: Die Audioqualität ist gut verständlich jedoch kein High-End Hifi Sound, Das Delay zwischen den Gesprächspartnern liegt bei ca 0,5-1,5 Sek was eine brauchbare Kommunikation ermöglicht. Was mir fehlt ist eine Möglichkeit einen Türöffner zu integrieren, das bieten aber die wenigsten Doorbells an. Fazit: Ich bin sehr zufrieden und werde diese Klingel bedenkenlos weiter empfehlen, (Kabel ist halt immer besser). Nachtrag nach 1,5 Jahren: Leider zeigt sich nach jedem stärkeren Regen 1-2 Tage lang ein leichter Nebel im Bild. Anscheinend dringt Feuchtigkeit in die Linse ein die nach Tagen dann wieder trocknet. Habe dies am 1.09.2025 dem Reolink Support gemeldet und ein Ticket eröffnet. Ich habe dem Support das Problem geschildert und ein Foto hocgeladen. am 4.9.2025 hatte ich einen neue Doorbell im Briefkasten! --- WOW So muss support sein, schnell und unkompliziert.
