Reolink RLC-823A Review - 4K IP Camera that has Pan, Tilt, Zoom, Spotlights and Motion Tracking

[@LifeHackster]

There is a bug that I haven’t tested and was brought to my attention that during motion tracking, the camera doesn’t tilt. It will only pan. This is a software bug that Reolink should be fixing soon.

[@johnlarkin5183]

I have not tried it, but on their website the new firmware does fix this issue.

[@Pro1er]

There is a new firmware version that provides vertical tracking but see my comments below regarding FPS before updating the firmware.

[@scottfarcus1515]

The new firmware only partially fixes this issue. They are still working on a fix that will allow it to tilt all the way while tracking.

[@shl4998]

I have installed the new software. Now the camera tilt all the way while tracking

[@FN57owner]

I have this camera, but haven't seen the updated firmware that includes tilt when tracking could someone post a link to download.

[@rickpoeling6831]

Your videos are by far the best. Great job showing the video quality and functionality of the camera day and night and with multiple distances and activity.

[@mugg1841]

Glad you made this video. Been checking this out on their website and your review helped confirm that I want this.

[@firstlast1732]

Love the loud sound to alert people

[@jbgood7694]

This is an excellent review. the most helpful part was when you showed the license plate at different distance’s.

[@osbjmg]

Very comprehensive, you even did a two person tracking -- something I was wondering about. Thank you! One thing I would love is if I can send alerts to my google nest devices in addition / instead of my phone. I will look into doing something with IFTTT maybe.

[@ruudwilschut9095]

I've seen more of your videos, but this one has by far the best color image quality at night. Looking at the roofs of the houses in the background and the sky and clouds and there is no noise at all. The image looks so nice and clean! Reolink now has a nice offer on this camera, so I think I'll buy it. I currently have a 1080p Kami Outdoor IP camera with terrible image quality and Kami has added advertisements with sound in the app before you can view your footage. This is their way of forcing you into a subscription.

[@David-lb4te]

Good review. I have just installed this camera to replace an 5k fixed POE. The focus is slow during the day, but at night if the camera is zoomed in, it usually does not lock at all. The focus aimlessly drifts from one focal limit to the other in search of the optimum. Otherwise, the camera is good.

[@LifeHackster]

Yes, especially if it in auto and in color at night even with the spotlights on..the focusing drifts..and BW, it is a bit better.

[@compaholic83]

@@LifeHackster Great review. Is there a way to set the focus manually for when its on patrol/auto follow? Or for each of the preset spots? Or at least give the focus a range so its not constantly hunting

[@paulmiyagishima7655]

Greetings from Torrance! This is a very cool camera. Video quality is superb out to 50 feet and the spot lights are very bright. In the right location this would be perfect. But you are right about not putting it in front of your house. Your neighbors would be a little creeped out. Thanks again for another awesome review! Great work!

[@LifeHackster]

Thank you. Reolink even with their WiFi cameras always have good video quality.

[@jos3064]

Is it possible to disable the lights completely? I am thinking about placing one of these in front my home. And also does it make a loud noise when panning and tilting? Thanks.

[@ninerangel49]

The notification time and clarity is outstanding! I currently have Eufy 2c, c24, and 2k doorbell. And it's gone downhill over the last 2 months. Notifications are awful and a lot of missed motion detections. Thinking of switching to reolink!

[@brittgayle467]

I’ve noticed the issue with missed motion detections with Eufy as well!

[@jcm9698]

I think that's an inherit problem with wi-fi cameras compared to wired.

[@jonk8600]

@@jcm9698 It happens even to the indoor 2k plugged in within my mostly enclosed porch recording 24/7. It has to be restarted weekly or is looses detection. It's defintinely a Eufy issue as I have it too. Suprisingly the cameras just recording events (Floodlight 2 pro and an S40 battery) do a good joband don't have the issue.

[@davest123va]

Not sure if anyone has mentioned this yet but it now has Pet tracking as well. Works perfectly with my cat running around the back yard!

[@leatherindian]

I just installed this camera with the optional bracket that allows you to mount under a horizontal surface like under the eave overhang. Reolink does not provide instructions. To remove the wall mount, simply remove the four screws. However, the cable CANNOT pass through the mount. You must remove the tie wraps, disconnect the cable from the circuit board and pull the cable through the mount. You reverse the process with the vertical bracket. Again, the finished portion of the cable with the network, power and reset connections will not pass through the new mount. Once the cable has passed through the mount, you must reconnect it to the circuit board and attach new tie wraps to ensure the cable is properly secured to the board. Another note, the three screws for the wall mount are sealed under silicone. I’d recommend reapplying the silicone to the screws after installing the new mount. This is simply poor design as making the cable connections slightly smaller, or the mounts slightly larger, you wouldn’t have to disconnect the cable from the circuit board. Also, why don’t they enable tracking in patrol mode? Again it’s poor software design if the camera won’t stay on a spot if it sees something. This makes patrol mode useless. Finally, I’ve not found any instructions on how this camera is to be setup for tracking, positions etc… your video is the only one I’ve found that shows how to set this up in the app. So thank you for that!

[@victorvek5227]

If Reolink silences the motor noise, offers tunable lighting like the Eufy floodlight cam 2 pro, and improves the two-way audio quality - no one else will be close. Until then, there are enough cons for Ring, Reolink, and Eufy for me to keep watching these videos waiting for “the one” to come out!

[@johnw65uk]

no zoom on the eufy!!

[@williamcrowley5506]

but the question is, if you didn't already own the Eufy, which one would you buy? Yes, there isn't enough for an upgrade, but how about.a new system?

This is an excellent review. Thanks @LifeHackster! The Reolink PTZ that I purchased in 2020 just crapped out on me and am trying to decide between this model and the 16X model. The mic is a major upgrade for me since the 2020 didn't have that feature. Motion tracking is a plus, but not sure if it's needed especially if I use preprogramed presets nor the spotlight since I don't want to anger the neighbors.

[@josephpuchel6497]

Hello What did you decide to do ? I’m thinking about this one POE. Thank you

[@DStealth7]

@@josephpuchel6497 I ended up going with the RLC-823A with the 5X optical zoom because it has a wider view. The only complaint I have is that I can't get the motion tracking to work. IDK if it's because I have an older NVR, the video quality is great otherwise.

[@ruudje2777]

With this camera I think you can set the zone where you want it to detect motion and then turn on the lights. Then your neighbors won't be bothered by it, right?

[@Joe-yj3ko]

Have you done a review of the RLC 842A yet? Thinking about getting one and was wondering what you thought about it. Thanks

[@markd.songsandstuff7728]

Thanks LIfeHackster, another good review. Go to a hardware store, buy a 6" extension for your drill bits. The frame won't be as much in the way to screw it in. I've had an 823A in front yard above my garage for about two months. The neighbors like that I have it because they don't have any security cams. I like Reolink. I like the 823A. It's the best PTZ cam in its price range IMO. A new firmware version does have both pan/tilt auto tracking and pet detection, but it's got problems with vehicle tilt tracking, fails sometimes. Reolink is aware of this and are working to improve the firmware. Don't expect the 823A to follow a car traveling fast past your house. If the street is close to your house all brand PTZ cams I know of can only track a car about 10-15 mph. Faster and a car will just fly by, tracking can't keep up. If you have a long driveway and the street/road is farther away, a car can be tracked at faster speeds. I don't use the vehicle auto tracking, don't want it, turned it off. I don't care to watch lots of motion clips of cars several houses past my home. I have person tracking on and it works great horizonal/vertical with people walking past my house on the sidewalk. Also, at night it takes a second for the cam to switch from IR black/white to color when the spotlight comes on when it senses motion so there's a bit of out of focus for a moment. The zoom works good, it's just 5x so it won't be as good as a $500+ PTZ with 20x zoom. I set the guard point in the middle of my property so after it tracks someone it goes back to guard point. Some think it's better to have two or three cams covering everything rather than just one PTZ. I agree. A PTZ might miss something out of frame as it follows a person/car. So I have other cams covering my front. Reolink is coming out with a doorbell cam in the Spring.

[@LifeHackster]

I actually have an extension too somewhere but I thought of the angled adapter first..:) thanks for the tip and further information. I think it is still better to have multiple static cameras.

[@Rcschim]

Solid test man, thanks a lot!

[@aidaperez88888]

Great review. I wonder what ur neighbors say when u test the sirens on cameras😜thanks for all ur reviews!

[@BlenderRookie]

I use an FTP server for all my reolink cams. The SD card records motion in the best quality and the FTP records in standard quality 24/7 on a 60 day archive rotation. The person, car and BETA pet detection on the rlc-810a really impressed me. Even the person and car detection on the rlc-510a is pretty good. I likely will be getting the 823a to replace my argus eco solar powered wifi cam I have at my front entrance way. Basically me watching this video is research. I was just going to get the I think it was the 812a because it has color night with spotlights and two way audio, but now I am thinking this one because it being a PTZ with motion tracking will cover a blindspot.

[@abowden5079]

9:02 when you say 'zoomed in' do you mean Digitally zoomed in or you used the Optical Zoom for the zoomed in snip of the numberplate?

[@LifeHackster]

Digitally zoomed in…this camera and any camera that has optical zoom doesn’t zoom optically when it senses motion. It is because of the lag time of the focus.

[@Koi-Koi-Koi]

Hey LifeHackster! Another great review. I'm sure you are aware that Wyze is dumping the V1 Cams and I'm pretty pissed about that as I have several. I'm sure the V1 Pan cams will be next shortly as well. This led me to do some searching for replacements. Well I discovered SwitchBot now sells a fixed CAM for $29 on Amazon. I went ahead and bought one and it's actually pretty good. The night vision is on par with the Wyze V1 CAM but with WAY less false alarms as Wyze. Also, the playback is WAY easier to view/download and storage is free. I'm going to replace my Wyze V1's with Switchbot's for now as they are inexpensive. The only downside to SwitchBot is you need to buy a hub to be able to view cameras from the internet ($49). A consideration for sure but I use a bunch of SwitchBot products including their temp/humidity sensors and switches which also work well. If you have time it would be nice to see you do a review of the SwitchBot lineup. These work great with Smartthings and Alexa as I have and old 1947 (slightly updated) home with no ground wires on many switches and these products work nice for my situation. Please consider my request. THANKS!

[@LifeHackster]

Actually I didn’t know. Thanks for the heads up. I have to check out the switch not. Thanks.

[@abowden5079]

Great vid, Thank you for the review on this, and for the dedication in setting up and testing it with the bad weather youve been having too. This Confirmed its one of, if not the best retail (excluding commercial i guess) ptz cameras on the market hands down and i will buy it as soon as it comes back in stock. If reolink gave you affiliate links for discounts that would be cool . 1 thing i do Wish the autotracking could pan slowly with target instead of the on/off nature to its panning at full speed but thats very minor, no big deal.

I am interested in installing two Reolink RLC-823A and Reolink TrackMix cameras, I would like you who have worked with them and evaluated them to inform me: 1) in general, if I put a Reolink camera on top of it to monitor them simultaneously from a mobile phone, laptop or tablet, I must necessarily buy an NVR or do I have the possibility with a PoE injector/switch to have a connection to all of them normally. 2) in complete darkness will I have the same results as I see in your videos and up to how far will I have perfect images? Thanks

[@LifeHackster]

1. You don't need an NVR. Just put in a micro SD card and add them to your network using the app and via PoE. 2.Their IR video quality is different.

I will go in either the windows client or the mobile client and make the appropriate changes but the camera will not retain the settings.

[@abyssiniahenry128]

I noticed my oversight that the cable only went downwards after purchasing. I needed it to go up into a soffit. Down option for me is all brick wall and I don't want exposed wiring running back up the camera exterior. I rotated the foam backer inside the mounting bracket 180°, cut a U notch in the top of the metal casing directly opposite the bottom U notch and then sealed with butyl putty/tape. It's under a soffit but sealed it anyway. Wire goes up now.

Great review! I'm currently looking for a 4K PTZ camera to replace a fixed 4MP fixed camera. I like the idea of the spotlights but I have a couple questions about the camera: 1) That chirping noise when the camera moves. Is this the motor itself or an option that can be turned off? I'd like to silently track subjects. 2) Can the spotlight be set to come on only when a subject is within a user-defined distance? I'd like to have the spotlight activate only when a subject is on my property, not on the sidewalk. 3) I use Dahua cameras and NVR now. Does this camera have perimeter protection/trip lined that can be set on the camera itself? I find having events is the most efficient way to review footage later. Thanks again!
