– REOLINK 8MP Pan Tilt 360° Auto Tracking CCTV Camera, Color Night Vision

Great product works exactly as described even though it’s placed on a more sheltered side of the house. Battery 100% every night regardless. The ability to adjust the motion sensitivity is a huge plus also.

充電器で充電できず、不良品かあ、と思ったのですが、で返品しようとしましたが、他にも充電できていないというレビューを見て、もしかして充電器の問題？と。 そういえば、試したのは全てTypeC-TypeCのPDタイプだったことに気づき、試しにTypeA-TypeCの充電器を使ったら、充電が始まりました。 充電器でうまくいかない方、TypeA-TypeCのものでも試してみてください。 まだ初期設定段階なので、一旦、星３つです。 追記 1週間ほど使っています。 画質は綺麗で、夜間もしっかり映ります。 自動点灯するLEDライトがかなり明るいので、防犯効果も高そうに思います。 microSDに記録しますが、同時にftpサーバーにもアップロードできるので、自宅のNASにもアップロードするように設定しました。 別途、クラウドサービスを申し込む必要がなくこれができるのは、私的にはかなりメリットです。 ということで、星5つ評価にさせていただきました。

My second camera of this brand. They work great. I have it plugged in to an outlet, so I haven't used the solar panel, but it might be a nice option for some. I like the camera, I like the app. Good purchase.

Fantastic camera! Works very well, AI intelligence is able to determine animal, people or vehicles. Has great video quality and night vision with IR and spot light if needed. Charges perfectly every day with included solar panel, batteries are always at 100%. Highly recommend!

The Reolink Argus PT Ultra 4K Solar WiFi Camera has been a solid addition to my home camera setup. I installed it on a gazebo that sits near a public trail behind my fence. Recently, a windstorm knocked down part of the fence, leaving a gaping hole where anyone walking by can see in or walk in. Since rebuilding in the middle of winter was not ideal, this camera became a practical short-term and likely long-term security solution to keep an eye on things before and after the fence gets built. For my intended use, which is monitoring the yard and trail access, it has delivered excellent effectiveness and performance so far. I absolutely plan to leave it there permanently. The overall build quality feels very much in line with what I expect from Reolink. I have been running a Reolink DVR system in Colorado weather for over 12 years, ranging from below-zero winters to hot summer sun, and my DVR cameras have never failed. This Argus PT Ultra gives me that same impression of durability and longevity. The camera housing feels solid, the mounting bracket is sturdy, and the included 3W solar panel has a clean, functional appearance that is small enough not clash with the gazebo design or look terribly out of place. Installation was straightforward, highlighting the system's usability and ease of use. Because it is fully wire-free, I only needed two tapping screws into the gazebo's wood beam and a secure mount for the solar panel above it on the camera mount. Within a couple of hours of sunlight, the battery fully charged to 100 percent. That solar functionality removes the hassle of climbing up to recharge batteries, running a power cord to a plug, or running an Ethernet cable, which is a major advantage over some battery cameras I have used in the past. Setting up the Reolink app was equally simple. After creating a Reolink account, I scanned the QR code on the camera, connected via Bluetooth, and then added it to my 2.4 or 5.8 GHz WiFi network. I was pleasantly surprised that I still had a strong signal all the way across my yard. What stands out most is the 4K image quality and the 360-degree pan-and-tilt functionality. The clarity during the day is excellent, and the color night vision with the motion spotlight does a good job of preserving in the dark. The auto tracking feature adds real functionality, especially for monitoring activity along the trail. Instead of a static view, the camera follows movement across its field of view. The ability to view both this camera and my older Reolink DVR system in the same app is a big plus. It keeps everything centralized and easy to manage. Remote access also works reliably, so I can check in when I am away from home. Local storage via microSD is another practical feature, especially since there are no mandatory subscription fees. Motion detection only captures short clips, so even a 32 GB SD card is sufficient to store hundreds, if not thousands, of clips. In real-world use, motion detection has been accurate, and the smart detection options for person, vehicle, and pet help reduce false alerts. I had to turn up the motion detection all the way for it to detect people walking by on the trail, but it will definitely pick people up at 60 percent if they get closer. The spotlight and siren serve as a deterrent, though I mainly rely on notifications and recorded clips. I left the siren feature off since I don’t want to alarm every person who walks by. Video playback in the app is smooth, and the interface is intuitive without feeling overly simplified. Sound quality is also decent for picking up voices nearby. I could easily hear birds through the app as well as dogs barking in the distance. The camera and app offer plenty of options for managing the device, with a few more knobs that advanced users will enjoy. There are a few nuances to be aware of. While it supports both 2.4 and 5 GHz WiFi 6, which offers compatibility with older versions of Wi-Fi, placement still depends on having reliable coverage at the install location. At my gazebo across the yard, I decided to join it to my 2.4GHz only network since 2.4 goes further than 5.8. My wi-fi AP is inside the house, so I may end up replacing the factory antenna on the camera with a directional patch antenna to help boost the signal. Also, while the solar panel has kept the battery full for me, shaded areas or prolonged overcast weather could affect charging performance. You also need to purchase a microSD card separately to enable local event storage. These are not deal breakers, but they are practical considerations. At around 120 dollars, I believe this camera matches its price point well and is actually a bargain for a full PTZ camera. It does not replace a full wired PoE system in terms of continuous recording and absolute reliability, but for a wire-free outdoor solution with strong video quality and solid functionality, it comes very close. In some scenarios, especially where running cable is difficult, it can realistically replace higher-end wired alternatives. Overall, this is a high-value option for anyone wanting a flexible, solar-powered outdoor security camera with strong performance and good long-term potential. If you already use Reolink products, the integration within the same app is a major advantage. For new users, it offers an easy entry into a capable and subscription-free security ecosystem, but there is a bit of a learning curve. The directions are pretty clear, and if you aren’t the type of person who calls tech support on the first sign of trouble, this is a great solution. As long as you have decent WiFi coverage and reasonable sunlight, it is a practical and well-built solution.
