    For me, Reolink is one of the most exciting manufacturers of modern 4K PTZ surveillance cameras for indoor and outdoor use.

    Diagram showing two triangular fields of view in front of a house at night from a reolink Wi-Fi security camera: one labeled 180° Sichtfeld (larger area) and the other 100° Sichtfeld (smaller area). A person walks by. www.commaik.de

    Reolink 180-degree cameras in the test: I tested four current models with dual-lens technology – the Argus 4 Pro, Duo 3 PoE, Duo 3 WiFi and Duo 3V PoE. The focus was on 180° field of view, image quality, night vision, WLAN vs. PoE, motion detection and smart home functions. The article shows which Reolink surveillance camera is really convincing, what is important when buying and which solution is best suited for which environment. All cameras were installed, tested in everyday use and linked to the Reolink app. The test provides real experience – compact, practical and with a clear recommendation.
