REOLINK 4K Dual Lens 4G LTE Cellular Security Camera Outdoor, 360 PTZ with Auto Tracking, No WiFi Solar Powered, 6X Hybrid Zoom, 8MP Color Night Vision, SIM Card Included,Motion Alert, TrackMix LTE+SP

Great camera but if you live in cold country you may want to get a 12 watt solar panel.
I wanted a wireless solar camera that I could connect to my home network. This is a great camera for the money and the quality of the video is pretty good. The only issue I have is that I live in the north and it gets really cold. The camera comes with a 6 watt solar panel and when it gets down below freezing and the sky is overcast it barely keeps up with keeping the camera charged. We had a week solid like this and it finally died. So I put one of their 12 watt solar panels and it solved my problem. I brought it inside and charged it up and with the new solar panel it has been fully charged since.

Buggy Garbage!
I searched for a long time for a good battery-operated camera that had PTZ and autotracking. The dual cameras, with one zoomed in, seemed like a perfect match to overlook a parking lot. I was wrong. It is a terrible mess at doing what it’s supposed to do.It’s brand new, with an 8x zoom. For that, I paid an extra $100 over the previous model. However, the depth of view in the parking lot is so small, it almost never zooms in. When it does zoom in and try autotracking, half the time it moves in the opposite direction of the motion. If movement is going left, it pans right, realizes the mistake, then pans left and overshoots. It’s just terrible.I saw it had streaming capabilities, but didn’t realize it required a separate $100 hub. I picked up the hub and enabled streaming, and the battery was dead one hour later. The next day, when the sun came up, the camera struggled to get just a few percent charge—barely enough to wake up. As I write this, it’s still dead at one of the sunniest times of the day.I connected a POE doorbell to the hub as well, since I already used that with streaming. Now the Trackmix can’t handle streaming, and the solar is far too weak to keep it awake for long. I disabled streaming again, but now the doorbell can’t stream either. So my options are: remove the Trackmix from the hub and lose streaming (which defeats the purpose of the hub), remove the doorbell from the hub (which makes the chime stop working), and so on.Why advertise streaming capability when solar can’t keep it running for more than an hour or two? Why have autotracking if it can’t move in the right direction? Why offer dual lenses and zoom if 99% of the time, the subject is too close for it to zoom in at all?This camera is only good if you mount it high above the ground, with a solid 100 feet of distance in front of it for tracking. If your movement is left to right in front of the camera, you’ll have a bad time. If the movement is coming toward the camera, maybe it’s fine.I really should have gone with the Atlas PT Ultra. It seems like it would be better suited for what I need. I should not have been fooled by the 6x or 8x zoom claims. The zoom is worthless, the autotracking is worthless, and the streaming is worthless.Edit: Reolink offered a full refund and then told me to return the camera instead. Note all the other glowing reviews came from people who got the product for free from the Vine program. That doesn’t change how I feel about this camera, it has serious issues.

A new design with all the high end features one would need. This 4k solar camera with 180 degree field of view, 6 ghz wifi and colour night vision sounds like a banger. But It might be wise to think about use cases and placement. Before purchasing this unit.

Yet still offers high precision colours.3 Detection zone failures. Sometimes the camera won’t detect a person or object if it is less then 35% in the frame ( example a head and upper torso ) might not trigger the cams auto detect. This has happened on some occasions when testing this. Works 95% of the timeFinal thought; 5 out of 5With this units overall high cost of entry. This might be for some, a higher price to pay. For an innovative design that somewhat fails to hit the mark 100% of the time. If you own the bay station and other cameras from this company then it will be a great addition to your security setup. But you must always keep in mind, that with new tech their might be some bugs that need ironing out. So always update you’re firmware and keep you’re troubleshooting guide handy and you will be fine.

I’ve been using Reolink products for a decade now and I’ve always been satisfied with the value & quality of their cameras. This TrackMix 4K solar security camera has really nice video quality in daytime and really good night time also.It was easy adding the camera on my phone via the Android APP.It has dual camera’s, one wide angle gives you a large view of my entire backyard, while the telephoto lens zooms in on things it’s tracking. On the APP each lens has it’s own video feed that you can view.The smart tracking works really good on people and pets also. Since it’s setup in our backyard we don’t have any car traffic but it also has vehicule tracking.The advantages of a battery solar powered security camera is that you can set it up anywhere and you don’t need to run network cable or plug it to a power outlet. Also you camera will keep working even during a power outage as long as your battery has a charge.Another big advantage of Reolink is that they don’t force you into a subscription and spend money monthly to be able to fully use the camera and all it’s features.Yes they offer cloud recording but you can also use a Reolink NVR or Hub, setup your own “NVR” on computer and use the PC software and finally record locally on a SD card.If you need a solar security camera with great video quality, PTZ capabilities and not be tied down to a subscription model, the Reolink TrackMix is probably one of the best quality & value you can get.

5 out of 5A new aspect of design with some great features . This 4k PTZl dual lens camera with 160 degree field of view, 256g optional storage 2.4 or 5 ghz wifi and colour night vision sounds like a deal. Especially with it’s new upgraded solar panel and larger battery offering even more bang for you’re buck. This along side a 2 tear zoom design that offers police and law enforcement better chances of facial recognition.The feature set:One 8mp lensone 5mp lens designed to zoom into the frameCOLOR NIGHT VISION:x vision clear ( high ISO ) 2025 version with much less noise and higher fidelityinfraredinfrared LED lights unveil all night details up to 20 feet.detection algorithmSMART DETECTION & TWO-WAY AUDIO: Smartly detect person/car/animal movements from other objects, reducing false alarms.

Plus, time-lapse condenses long-term events into minutes, facilitating easy observation of transformations.With all this out of the way, the camera itself really does offer a great field of view from head to toe. The 3d unwrapping feature helps the app see undistorted lines and shapes. Providing you with a more true to life view of a person or object. Having a remote view of someone at you’re door step really adds a sense of security and peace of mind. I never thought it would be so useful until I installed this little gem. Now I see when my amazon packages arrive and Who’s driving the vehicle. I can talk to the person directly or leave messages that will chime when needed. I can see the uber eats delivery guy arrive so I am ready to greet him. I see when my family and friends come for a visit unexpectedly. It really is amazing how I’ve missed out all these years of not having this security feature installed.Final thought; 5 out of 5The back door is always a source of anxiety since it’s the second point of entry to you’re home. Keeping this in mind most back entry ways aren’t visible from inside you’re domicile. With this dual lens camera you can finally put those worries to rest. With fantastic picture quality, 2 way communication, auditory alert, night vision, remote viewing in app and 2 way storage options. This is a must have tool in you’re security arsenal.
