REOLINK Duo 3 PoE 16MP UHD Dual-Lens PoE Security Camera with 180 Panoramic View Motion Track F1 6

I ordered this to go with a Reolink 16 channel system and this camera integrated seamlessly and flawlessly into it. I really do like the look that this camera has when on the HDMI connection as it takes the place of two cameras automatically (not on a computer version though). The mount was the worst part of this installation as it lets you install it on either side (top or bottom) but you have to flip the mount and that made the hole on the bottom exposed to the elements so that water and stuff could drain down into the house fascia board. I plan on drilling a hole in the arm so it drains out. However, overall for the quality of the image and ease of integration this is just bang up of a camera. The lights are bright, night vision is great, and the speakers are really loud on this thing. Just a great 16MP camera. Read more

The media could not be loaded. A couple years ago, I purchased the Reolink DVR with 4 cameras, and had them mounted on the 4 corners of my home. 2 in the front yard facing each other so I can see the whole area, and 2 in the back yard facing each other. I've always wanted better side yard visibility since I've had a few instances now of people crossing through my sideyard and even contruction people working for a neighbor who were in my side yard. So, I bought this on sale (thank you Amazon and Reolink) to cover the back yard, and repointed the ones on the corners to see the side yard. You can see in the screenshot above, I can now see all of my yard and have a great view of the backyard. The clarity is nice. I also like the floodlight feature on it as well as the 2 way communications available. The siren COULD be louder, but I won't be using that much (hopefully). As I've mentioned in previous reveiws, I love that it's a POE camera since it won't need batteries and can't be jammed by a FlipperZero or other wireless jamming device. It can't be disabled without you first having been recorded. That being said, I would recommend pairing it with the DVR for that purpose. It can take up to 256GB of memory in an SD card, but that can be removed. If paired with a DVR indoors, they can take the camera or remove the card, but they're still recorded securely in your home! Also, if you're like me and have your network equipment on a battery backup, cutting power to your home won't kill this camera. It will run on the juice being supplied across the network! Sweet! If you're not interested in that, can't get network cables to the location you plan to mount it, or just prefer wireless still, then go for the wifi version of this camera. I'm still impressed with the rest of the features enough to suggest it! For the techies out there like me, it plays nicely with all the IOT services. Apple Homekit, Google Home, Amazon Alexa, and (my favorite) HomeAssistant all play well with it! In Alexa and HomeAssistant (the two I've tested the most with it) even the options to send voice back to it, trigger the siren, and trigger the flood light are all available! I'm already testing automations in HomeAssistant now! For the price, this is a great camera. My only complaint is a nit-picky one, and that is that in the DVR dashboard it comes across a bit small because it's panoramic. I hope they add layouts in the DVR to accomodate these later! Until then, I'm still satisfied. It's been worth every buck! Read more

This is a great, high definition camera sporting a 180 degree field of view with minimal distortion. It uses the same mounting bracket as the Duo 2 and can be dropped into an existing setup easily, **BUT** vertically, the FOV is not as tall as the Duo 2. For my application, I am still able to see everything I need to, but this is an important difference to note. It's maybe 5 fewer degrees vertically. Horizontally, you can still see an impressive 180 degrees with only minor distortion in the center of the picture from stitching the two camera feeds together. This camera easily connects to AgentDVR, and AgentDVR is even able to use data from the camera's AI motion and object detection to tag videos (with keywords including "detected", "vehicle", "people", "animal") or trigger recordings. FTP recording also works very well, although I had trouble with Auto/PASV transport and had to set it to Port to get it to work properly. This camera performs extremely well during the day. It's able to read the license plate of a moving vehicle from about 50 feet away with almost perfect clarity. At ~25mph the vehicle almost looks like it's not moving. At night, performance is still impressive, you can read the license plate of a stationary vehicle but a moving vehicle will only be a blur. You can still make out a good amount of detail if you adjust the image settings, but there's only so much you can do for night surveillance. I have had some problems getting the camera to switch between day mode and night color mode. The street outside my house has LED street lights, which I guess is bright enough to confuse the light sensor. Weirdly, though, the camera has no problem switching from day to black-and-white (infrared) night mode... I've tried editing the manual picture settings for color night mode, and it's definitely not kicking in; only changing the picture settings for day mode affects it. It's a bummer because the settings that maximize clarity in my situation are a LOT different for day and night mode. The reason this review is for four stars instead of five is a mix of the reduced vertical field of view and the weirdness switching to night mode. I wish it was made clearer that the field of view is reduced (even just a screenshot showing what the field of view actually is, not necessarily directly comparing the two), and not being able to adjust the color night mode is annoying. Despite these negatives, it is still a fantastic camera with amazing picture quality, and I would absolutely recommend it to a friend. Read more

The media could not be loaded. I have three Reolink Duo POE cameras installed around my home, and I couldn’t be happier! They are incredibly reliable, and the motion sensor lights are a fantastic bonus. Notifications are instant, so I always know what’s happening outside. The setup was smooth and easy, and the video quality is crystal clear. They give me total peace of mind, and I love how professional and polished they look. Definitely worth every penny. These cameras are a game-changer for home security! Read more

This 180° camera is amazing. It provides a full view of the activities from left to right, a much better way to record the videos than having 2 separate wide angle camera mounted side by side with no image stitching. One of this camera literally replaces 2 cameras and it produces excellent images. I installed 5 of them on the Reolink NVR without any issues. Read more
