No complaints The cellphone app works great

Excellent camera based POE system. Cameras work well, easy to install and setup!

I’ve been on a waiting list for this security system from the manufacturer and on Amazon and I’m glad I didn’t settle with another maker. It provides and satisfies my security needs.

I really love this system. I use it for security for my garage . The features are really easy to use. The app is very user friendly, I can see everything right from my phone, tablet or pc. I would recommend and I intend to buy another in the future for my home

This is a review for the Reolink RLK16-810B8-A. (The RLK8-810B6-A system is the same, except only 6 cameras and a smaller hard drive.) The 4K cameras included are the RLC-810A which are PoE IP cameras. All I can say is that the video quality is good, but not great or outstanding. The video and picture resolution seems more like 2k cameras. When hooked to a professional 4K computer monitor or a nice 4k TV, the picture is definitely not 4K. When you view a different source such as a 4K YouTube video you will see what I am talking about. The clarity and crispness of a true 4K signal is very evident. Reolink has lost the ball with this one. Some background...As you probably know, a 4K camera allows you to take videos with a resolution of 3840 on 2160 pixels. It brings high-definition results, making the videos high-quality and realistic. When watching 4K video, you can distinguish the smallest details, which Full HD cameras often fail to provide. 4K is a video specification that literally just means 4,000. It gets its name from the approximately 4,000 pixels of width of the footage. Even the best quality, 1080p HD footage is only 1920 pixels across. 4K is significantly more detailed, since it has twice as many pixels horizontally, and four times as many pixels in total. Also, something to be aware of. The 8 camera 16 channel system has a larger 3TB hard drive and a fan in the NVR. The smaller footprint of the 6 camera 8 channel system has a 2Tb hard drive and no fan in the NVR. Conclusion: I decided to keep this system as alternatives were sparse. Picture quality is just….okay. NVR and App are sometimes buggy. Last bug was when zooming, the picture went blank. This happened when using the App and the Windows software. I did not try the direct connection from the NVR yet.

The product works okay. The NVR only records in 1080p for some reason at extremely low framerates. I can get 4K resolution if I record to an outside device on the network, but that means that outside device (e.g. my PC) has to be powered on for it to record. The apps work fine though all I have done is set up the recording and use it for streaming. One of my cameras had a moisture issue and it took 4 days of emailing to finally get the information I needed so that I could pay to ship it back to them for a warranty claim. The customer service agent that helped me most was calling him or herself Yogurt (probably just a bunch of different people). I asked for shipping information and paid postage, and all I got in return was that my order was more than 30 days old, which means I had to pay for the return shipping. I had to send another email, which they only reply to at night, to get the shipping information. Overall bad experience trying to get an meh product replaced.

The unit produces pretty significant noise. Around 60 decibels. Contacted support. Was told that 70 decibels was normal. That’s city traffic noise. Update: bought a self-claimed quiet fan. But it turned out that the original fan is actually quieter. Found that significant amount of noise was generated by the air passing the fan grill. Removed the grill and reduced the noise by about 10 decibels. That’s a lot. Consider that every two decibels double the amount of sound energy. Obviously this is not an ideal solution if you have some moving objects close by that may obstetrics the fan blades.

Plug and play. Hook it up to my TV with HDMI, connect camera with provided ethernet cable, hook up power, hook up provided USB mouse, turn on, and follow instructions. This seems to be a easy to use system and a good value when I got it $200 off for black friday. I havent hooked it up to the internet yet for backup.

Very sharp

Awesome quality, my only gripe is the pigtail off the camera is a bit bulky but still worked out okay very sharp image and glad it has sound too
