If you're talking about the camera's audio it has the same problem as some other Reolink cameras where it sounds like the camera is under water. Hopefully you can turn off the noise filter on this model.
I would like to see the CX410 color nightvision integrated into the Trackmix series as I believe the color clarity is superior based on your previous testing. Also, would like full 360 degree ptz functionality. That would be amazing. As always, fantastic review 🇺🇸
I had the same thought about putting the larger sensor in better Optics from the cx410 in one of these. One of my ring cameras is going out, and I would totally put one of those at my house.
Audio and video is outstanding ! it even felt like i was standing right in your yard the picture is that good.. I have a track mix and i think its the best camera i own for features and tracking.. Im impressed with this 4k camera and was thinking of building a NVR system from Reolink. I started with a Reolink Eco and thought it was better than blink at that time.. Reolink today is killing it with features and tech and its above the rest in quality !
Excellent review and testing as always. Really nice camera. I have the Trackmix POE, and it has been flawless. This camera may have a future spot for back yard. I am slowly getting rid of my wireless cams where it makes sense to have a POE one instead.
@LifeHackster I saw it on the website that has a description Trackmix Series WiFi. and Trackmix Series PoE and only Wifi CAM Add and PoE CAM Add I would like to know the differences between these 4 options please.
I have 3 Reolink cameras and a Hikvision. I think Reolink has the best motion detection algorithm on the market. Very reliable. But it suffers deeply in the lack of advanced settings compared to a Hikvision and mainly, in the poor quality of HDR and colorful night images. Reolink has sharper and more beautiful daytime images despite weak HDR, but in color night mode it really takes a beating from Hikvision. Hikvision if well adjusted, allows you to see images almost in total darkness and with a very fluid FPS rate.
Great video. You mentioned that you didn’t see the need for the E1 outdoor anymore, but I think the E1 out is very popular because of its small form factor (it’s cute basically). I wish Reolink made more smaller sized Poe cams……
Kudos! Because of your videos, I've taken the plunge. Tons of research later, I really feel Reolink is the best solution and value for the money. For me, we are starting with two RLC-830As and the 8CH NVR... In the next 3-6 months, I'll extend the system with a RLC-823A 16X for the long back yard, Duo Floodlight PoE for the drive way, and three POE Floodlights surrounding the home. Really appreciate the work put into these videos!
Hey @lifehackster, if you had to buy one security camera system to protect your family and house. Which one would you get? Swann, Lorex, Samsung, Reolink?
I like your video because you explained and you talking about all the details and you are very nice you say the truth but I wish if you make a videos about outdoor motion sensor solar light
The e1 outdoor pro is supposed to have a slight zoom though isnt it? I think on this lineup (without the dual lens) they need to add a 3x zoom at least then they can phase out that e1 outdoor series for those that just want a non dual lens ptz that wont break the bank *cough .. 823a*
Yes the E1 outdoor has a 3X zoom (not auto zoom) and by design it cannot vertically (tilt) track because it’s range is limited in tilting down. You really cannot install this taller than 9-10 feet.
I was interested by this one to complete a Trackmix, on another side of the house, because no need to the zoom function here, but the smaller field of view stop me, I'll probably go to a Duo.
I just buy a Sim this security camera but I have a problem with a flashlight on nighttime stay own I tried turn off money time but doesn't turn off do you have a solution for the
Wanted to thank you for all the videos you've done and time you have taken. I ended up going with a Eufy C24 Outdoor camera for what I needed and based on that I will be getting a Eufy doorbell and 1Eufy indoor camera. Can I give one suggestion to add to your testing. Motion detection alerts at night. Currently I have the Eufy C24 pointed at my two cars maybe 25 feet away and it doesn't detect motion till I'm about 10 feet away. Even at the front car doors it doesn't send a notification or turn on the spotlight. Your day time distance motion alerts are great with most cameras being in the 30-40 ft range. But maybe adding in the night motion alert would be helpful. Just a suggestion as you already do so much work to help use determine which cameras to go for. Thanks for everythingl
Good suggestion. I do test it once in a while and I know with the Eufy, the distance of detection decreases at night and particularly with this model, it is already limited in daytime compared to other wired or plugged in cameras. One thing you can do is have more lighting in the area and see if it helps. Thanks.
I feel this type of camera is perfect for large backyards like yours because of the tracking, but in my case where I dont need a wide field of view this is like an overkill, I'll check the other reolink cameras though, the video quality is fantastic!
@@chibbyylol makes sense. I’d like to know both wifi and cellular speeds then. Notification speed when you’re upstairs asleep at 3am is just as, if not more important than notification speed whilst running errands at the store.
I use cellular connection because most likely your phone will not be connected to WIFI when you are out of the house. Also, there is no difference between cellular data and WIFI ... because notification is just a small file size.
Seems to be better than the E1 Outdoor POE. I'm disappointed in that camera. Seem to fail to track and loose its home position. Had hoped to be able to use it an an indoor ceiling POE camera. Currently testing it on my patio. Mostly failed. Would the Trackmix 830a be a better patio solution? Still looking for an indoor POE ceiling mount camera. Thoughts? Great review as always.
I use the Trackmix(POE) for my front covered porch. Views my front door and my long driveway. Tracks deliveries to the front door and back.Returns to watch the package, door and vehicles. Two way talk is handy as well. For my back patio I use the RLC-823a(POE) to cover my big back yard. Really like this camera as well. Both fit their roles perfectly. Indoor POE PTZ you might be hosed. Not really many options for that. I finally just gave up and went to the Eufy P24 (S220 now) Love these cameras indoor although not POE. Mounts anywhere. Reolink for outdoor, Eufy for indoor. That way when I get an alert I can immediately tell if it's inside or outside alert.
Question, I have these Reolink cameras, but for some reason I’m having a hard time getting the app to work both on my phone and on my iPad. So I have it set up on my phone right now and when I go to my iPad and I have the app open I login and then they asked me for my username and password for the Camera. It says password isn’t correct and will not let me access the camera on the iPad. Is there any advice you have? Thank you.
Which Reolink cam would you recommend for a tilt,pan,and track cam that doesn't need an Ethernet connection ?? Currently I am using WYZE Tilt & Pan, but getting disappointed in its performanceYOU ARE APPRECIATED WHOLE BIG BUNCHES !!!
It is permanent but it sticks out on the base of the mount, so you can hide the wires by feeding in on to the wall or ceiling close to the wall for a clean install.
E1 outdoor supports Reolink Cloud, that's about the only good thing of that camera. I wonder why Reolink does not making Reolink Cloud available to all cameras
Lol. Like they’d listen. Customers have been begging for UI fixes for a decade to no avail. They haven’t even incorporated automatic software updates yet and that’s been requested / complained about in the officially Reolink Reddit community every day for at least 3 years straight now.
I like e1 outdoor Poe - it is not massive and does not attract attention. Been working fine for the past 6 month. I don’t use a tracking feature though
I got my cam and nvr. Everything loaded well without any issue. The only thing is that I do not have the detection alarm set. It just says failed to load.
Hello, I’ve got a really bad audio from 830A. I’ve read that this can be fixed by lowering the Noise Reduction filter but I cannot find that feature (as on TrackMixPoe). Anyone with that issue? The cameras - I’ve got plenty of them - are all updated to the latest firmware as on Reolink Download Center. Thanks
@@LifeHackster Perfect, thanks. I was curious if dropping the frame rates would improve quality as well. (more bits per frame). I picked up a reolink system to play with because of your videos. Thanks for the reviews.
@@edgfazEzviz H8 Pro 3K. Reolink is crap, Ezviz works nice. Im using Ezviz and Eufy, also have Reolink E1 Outdoor(2x) back in box, it have too many issues (position, tracking, wi-fi signal…), but zoom is good, I’ve tried 5 diferent firmware versions, notyhing helps. Im using 3x Ezviz C8W Pro 2K, 1x Ezviz H8 Pro 3K(superior aganist others), 1x Ezviz C6 2K and 2x Eufy Outdoor Solo Cam 2k.
The E1 needs to stay an economy camera line, Reolink needs to stop adding more advanced features. Especially when the core camera struggles with PTZ drift, and limited PTZ range (compared to the TrackMix, RLC-830A, RLC-823A). Reolink needs to continue advancing AAA+ features into the RLC camera models. Customers will be upset and disappointed if they spend $125 for the best E1 PoE outdoor and it won't stay centered on the monitor point! That's embarrassing, just keep the E1 & E1-Zoom (3x optical zoom) as indoor cameras to compete with Ring/Nest additional cameras. The E1-PRO is worthless just increasing the from 3MP to 4MP, unnecessary upgrade. $100 for the E1-outdoor is useless when RLC cameras can be purchased for $55-$200, are far superior design, and designed to be outdoor rated. The $160 E1 Outdoor 4K PoE Pro is absurd! $160 and it still has the PTZ drift and limited range of motion compared to the RLC cameras designed to be outside! The RLC-830A is $25 cheaper and far superior to the top of the line E1. E1 should stay in the Volkswagen beetle people's car market, and leave the RLC cameras as their superior outdoor PTZ cameras. I'll send you an email and stop venting!
Wow shocking a 4k camera can not read a number plate from 50feet in day light while stationary. So much ghosting at night time. Best to avoid imo. Thank you for making these video and helping me from purchasing a terrible camera
This is an acceptable security camera but his main issue is the bug about the monitor point. When the follow people option is enabled, the camera will work for a few days then suddently it will be pointed backwards to the opposite of the monitor point. Then all configuration need to be done again, this is my issue from 3 months now and I'm getting tired of it. The Reolink support did not contact me yet back, I'll wait one week and I will send the camera back. It's a shame I wanted to buy 10 of them...
Mine is going back, the sound quality is the worst of any device I have ever had, sounds like a mix of the environment, static, rain, waterfall, wind. echoes etc, All down a long pipe in a dark damn cave. I had 8 RLC-520 domes that had amazing sound pickup, the two upgraded RLC-520A's I picked up with this one to add AI to my existing 8 also have very poor sound pickup, its not as bad as this camera but just very weak pickup. Reolink has apparently lost control of its microphone usability in its more recent models.
Are you sure? I don't think none of that's even correct anymore. After the new update, they did, they took away half of the stuff. They made it look like trash. You don't get no zoom capability anymore. You don't get no prepossession points. Whatever they're called, they ruin the camera now. Yet they're fiscally buy a g v r
Their algorithm seems to wait until the subject is on the edge of the FOV before initiating the tracking. Reolink's tracking are abrupt and jerky..that is probably why they set it like that. You can also adjust the speed of the panning too. I kept mine at default.
Best recorded audio I have seen on any of your camera reviews. Probably helps that the tracking keep the mike pointed directly on the target.
If you're talking about the camera's audio it has the same problem as some other Reolink cameras where it sounds like the camera is under water. Hopefully you can turn off the noise filter on this model.
I would like to see the CX410 color nightvision integrated into the Trackmix series as I believe the color clarity is superior based on your previous testing. Also, would like full 360 degree ptz functionality. That would be amazing. As always, fantastic review 🇺🇸

How good is the Reolink app? It has an average low rating on the App Store.
Is it just old or has recent updates enabled it be a functional app

Just curious - why aren’t you attached to your home’s wifi when running these tests? The rich notifications would come up a lot sooner that way, no?
Most people aren't connected to wifi when not at home
