Reolink E1 Pro Indoor Camera 5MP, Pet Camera, WiFi Camera for Home Security

Great video quality. Once set up you don't need an internet connection. I have full time internet and have tried a few other cameras that always send their video to a distant server so there is a delay between what's happening on the camera view and what's actually happening outside. This can be several seconds or sometimes over a minute depending on internet activity. This camera does send its feed to a server so you can view from another location but if you are at home and watching what's going on you get a live feed from your own routers WiFi so the image is real time. There is an excellent phone app and a very comprehensive app for your home PC running Windows or Mac. Far better than all the other cameras I have tried before. You can set motion detection so it picks up any movement, or just triggered by persons or even just animals or any combination of the 3. Very good value for money as it can either save to a cloud server which you pay for as many other cameras, but it also saves to a SD card in the camera itself. You have the option when viewing to save any important video clips saved on your SD card to be copied to your hard drive, USB stick etc should you need it for evidence. A good camera with reliable and full featured apps.

It was time to upgrade from some cheap D-Link IP cameras that were running well below HD and that I had had for years. I read some good reviews on these and found them in the compatible list for Surveillance Station on my Synology NAS so thought I'd go for it. Bought one to start, just to see what I was getting but bought a second a couple of days later; very happy with these cameras. Pros: Compact body – 8cm x 8cm x10.5cm No external antenna sticking out [and it doesn't appear to affect wi-fi connection range]. Very clear image at lower settings, fantastic at 4MP. Works with Synology NAS/Surveillance Station [I'm running v8.2]. Easy set up. Doesn’t get too warm. Very quiet when operating PTZ Ability to turn off Infrared LED so can be used through glass at night; works really well if you have street lighting. Ability to turn off front, blue power LED. Long power cable – 3 metres. SD card slot [takes up to 64GB] Discrete mount supplied [with screws and plugs] for wall or ceiling/under cupboard mounting. App. is full of features and settings, well laid out, easy to follow. Date, time and camera name displayed. Motion detection is very good, either with the camera's own settings or set via Surveillance Station. Cons: No ethernet connection - would have been nice but not essential as app. does all you need set up wise. No direct web interface - had this on my D-Link cameras but again, not essential as app. is fully featured and everything can be set and controlled through it. All in all, I'm really impressed and pleased with these cameras and can see myself adding more. They are streets ahead of my previous cameras and with the ability to turn off the infra-red LEDs I can now give up on the idea and hassle of mounting an outdoor camera, just going to use one of these sat inside the window instead. In regards to using with Surveillance Station on the Synology NAS. Despite being in the compatible list, when searched for during the process of adding a camera, they don't show up in the Synology Compatible list but they do show up in the ONVIF list [see photo] and from there, can be added and named appropriately. Also worth noting, I needed to reboot my cameras after their initial set up [through the Reolink app] before they showed up in Surveillance Station.

Already had a couple of outdoor Reolink cameras and have been very pleased. The support for the cameras is excellent. I found out that my older outdoor IP cameras (both) firmware could be updated to work with Google Home. Reolink were quick to respond advising how to get the correct firmware. It was finding that these cameras had the Google home capability which prompted me to find out about my older cameras. This feature means you can view camera steamed to the Google Home hub devices or stream to Chromecast connected to TV - all done by voice command. The image pixelates temporarily when planning and tilting, although I am unsure whether that's because the rooms were dimly lit, or due to network latency. In any case the the image quickly settles to a pretty crisp view. I had one issue with the first camera. During setup I neglected to enter the wifi password after selecting our wifi. I progressed though the setup wizard, but ended up in a futile cycle of retrying the whole process. I sorted the problem, by doing a reset on the camera. This invloved using a paper clip, pressing into a small hole towards the bottom of the camera, a centimeter or two below the lense. There was no obvious indication that the camera had reset, but having pressed for 10 seconds or so it did the trick. Going through the process a second time yielded success. The second camera was straight forward. I followed the instructions carefully and there were no problems. On the whole I am very impressed with Reolink. I also have an HIKVision camera and trying to get support or locate firmware updates had been a bit of a trial and is still ongoing. I am hoping that I can also use the HIKvision camera with Google Home, but I would be surprised if that's the case.

Love this camera. First, the PoE capability means it can't be jammed by burglars, the quality is also great and doesn't rely on subscription.... cough cough ring..... expensive investment due to sd card prices at the moment but certainly worth it! I know I can rely on this when on holiday/out and it won't use my recordings to try find lost animals...? . Sound is great quality and very simple to setup. Very easily adjustable can basically mount it anywhere. Only complaint is that when it switches between day and night mode I get a motion alert.

Absolutely brilliant camera! Video quality is good both day and night. I have my camera pointing outside through a window, meaning I have to have Infra red turned off. Despite this, the night vision still produces clear images. With infrared turned on (provided it's not pointing out a window, lol!) the night vision is exceptional. The motion detection is very consistent, camera identifies difference between animals, people and objects, and then tracks motion very reliably. App has brilliant functionality, with playback easy to access using app, and saves recordings for over 3 days on a 128GB SD card! Settings for the camera are almost unlimited, If there's anything you could need the camera to do, there's likely a way to set it up. It has been Very well thought of by Reolink. You can access the camera via the app from anywhere provided you have internet access and your camera has internet connection, you don't have to be on the same network. This is brilliant for remote monitoring as you can watch the cameras live stream. You can even use the PTS function on the app to move the camera remotely. This camera, for the money, is the best you can ask for. There's no in app subscription fees (as of Jan 2026). It's got brilliant reliability, endless functionality, and versatility. The only nit picks I would mention, but these are very insignificant, are that: The 5MP camera resolution is good, but could be better (if that's a priority for you, consider spending that bit extra) The app does take some time to get used to. The core functions that you'd use day to day are accessible as soon as you open the app, which is brilliant. But to get full use from the camera's capabilities (setting alarms, schedules etc), the camera settings menu does take some digging through and a bit of time to figure out. Would definitely recommend Reolink, so far my experience has only been positive. After trying another camera from EUFY, I can say that for small, affordable and basic security/monitoring, Reolink has much more to offer.

Excellent Indoor Camera Good Picture Quality Outside With The Colour Screen On All Day & Night Time.

This has fantastic video quality and works very well with Home Assistant and Blue iris. HOWEVER I do have issues with its WiFi connectivity working with my TP-Link Omada Access Points. The camera all too frequently loses connection and usually then reconnects a few minutes later. On one of these E1 Pro's I have had to use a Ethernet cable to a Travel Router which then uses WiFi to the Access Points to make it work reliably. This is not the 1st time I have has problems with WiFi on Reolink cameras and it appears to be a weakness of them.

Very easy to set up, and truly excellent picture quality, the best I've had and I've owned around 3 over the last couple of years. Highly recommend.

Queste telecamere funzionano perfettamente: la rotazione copre ogni necessità di sorveglianza, inoltre molto apprezzabile la possibilità di cambiare la risoluzione in pixel della telecamera. A bassa risoluzione già si vede bene, mentre ad alta risoluzione si può ingrandire sorprendentemente molto l'immagine con ottima qualità. Nella norma l'illuminazione a IR che si attiva automaticamente con un livello di luce insufficiente. Questa funzione è disattivabile. Consiglio di tenerla disattivata perché altrimenti la telecamera consuma e si scalda, nel caso serva è sempre possibile attivarla 'al volo'. PESSIMA la app di gestione! Per collegarsi servono molti (troppi) tentavi! Comunque quando (finalmente) ci si riesce, ha un buon controllo della telecamera con funzioni di tutto rispetto. Forse usando altre app di gestione i collegamenti potrebbero migliorare...

Wir können es nur persönlich weiterempfehlen.

Wir setzen die Kameras in unserem Vereinsgebäude ein und müssen sagen, dass wir begeistert sind. Ohne Abo können wir mit dem Mobiltelefon von überall unsere Räume überwachen. Wir haben uns auch das Programm für Windows installiert, so können wir auch am heimischen PC alles einsehen. Das hat schon einen Hauch von einer kleiner Geheimdienst-Zentrale. Toll. Hier mal ein paar tolle Fakten: - automatische Aufzeichung auf Micro-SD - Abspielen der Aufzeichnungen auch aus der Ferne über Mobil-Telefon oder PC - automatische Überspieleung der alten Aufnahmen, also immer das Aktuelle drauf - automatischer Nachtmodus (wenn die Räume sehr dunkel sind) - sehr übersichtliche App - mehrere Mobiltelefone können auf die Kameras zugreifen - 360 Grad schwenkbar - Aufzeichnungen mit Kalender-Übersicht - leichtes Hinzufügen von weiteren Reolink-Kameras oder Geräten - Abrufen der Live-Videos und Aufzeichnungen von überall der Welt OHNE Abo - Perfekt! Ein tolles Produkt für einen guten Preis. Wir werden sicher weitere Geräte von Reolink in unsere App hinzufügen.

Perfect deze camera

Very easy to install and use. (To look outside a window in night time, you need the room to be totally dark.)
