Reolink 4K Dual Lens Wi-Fi Floodlight CCTV with 64GB Card

Great camera with just one flaw

I got fed up of Ring Camera subscriptions going up and up so I wanted something I could store the footage on locally. I already have a network video recorder so I just needed a camera that was able to work with it. This camera fit the bill as it needed to be powered by mains power. It has WiFi 6 connectivity and it was very easy to connect to my existing network. The installation was very simple with all the appropriate parts being available. As always I used my own wall anchors as the ones provided weren't amazing. I always didn't use the provided wire nuts, using Wago connectors instead. Much easier. The field of view compared to the Ring spotlight was a vast improvement (a full panaroma with barely detectable sticthing) and the resolution seems much better too. The app was extremely simple to use and the voice prompts from the unit were helpful. The alarm and lighting setup was a simple matter of using the app menus. The led status light (blue) and flashing floodlight modes were quickly switched off. The flashing floodlight was extremely unneighbourly! I also ditched the "colour" night vision. That's basically using white flood light to "see" at night. Such a gimmick. The IR night vision was absolutely fine. It has been pretty good at only detecting real movement and looks like it is built to last. The flaw in the system is that the SD card slot is vulnerable as it is underneath and easily opened with a normal screwdriver. If you don't mount it high enough, the card could be stolen. However since I am using an NVR, it doesn't bother me too much. Basically quite happy with it for the price. Delivery by Argos was good.

All you need in an outdoor camera!

I am so impressed with this Reolink Outdoor camera. The dual lens and the flood lights are what makes it different from all the others in the market. The camera gives me a pan vision of my entire garden and the image is crisp and clear. I use the automatic floodlight feature to make sure the lights come on at a specific time everyday. I can track when the kids come into the house or a car enters the driveway. The camera is really great and also allows me to speak to delivery people with its two way audio system. The camera was easy to set up and storage on a SD card is convenient. This is everything I needed in a camera and would definitely recommend getting this.

Adaptable, versatile and superior security system

Easy to use and install floodlight dual lens security camera that provides an extra wide angel viewing range. The floodlight is bright and provides excellent lighting at night. The brightness is adjustable which is also very helpful for choosing where the place the floodlight and having extra lighting in particularly dark areas. Video footage is clear and captures motion detections for various types such as people, animals and cars. The app is intuitive and easy to use and navigate allowing excellent search functionality for added safety and security. The unit comes with a 64gb memory card which for now I have not upgraded as it is sufficient for my needs. The extra features for alarms is superior to other security systems out there and provides that extra peace of mind and security - such as line detection alarm and zone monitoring. This could be particularly useful for things like preventing animals like foxes being in the garden as the alarm can be set to be trigger if it detects loitering. The actual camera lenses and two lamps are on pivot balls and allows for extreme flexibility to ensure the perfect angle. The camera really does away with the clutter of having multiple individual units trying to capture key security zones and provides an elite visual monitoring system. I previously used battery powered security cameras and the chore of having the change these often would mean that at times my home would be unmonitored - the hardwire system once set up provides a flawless and superior security viewing experience. This is an absolute essential for anyone wanting to add extra security to their home and is leaps above the other leading security devices.

Insanely easy to setup and crystal clear image!!!

Overall amazing camera that’s future proof and simple to setup. Connectivity and application navigation is so simple by following the clear instructions to set up via WiFi. Application has so many features which is great too. Quality of the build and camera is exceptionally clear at 4k. Expansion is great as you can add more cameras later on.

Lots of features, easy to set up

Very handy and easy to use camera with lights. As long as the wiring is already there - we had an outside light and so used that wiring then this is fairly easy to wire up. Took hubby 10mins. Once that is done you don't get much info in the manual,.you download the app, scan the qr code on the camera and connect it to WiFi. I haven't put an SD card in, any video clips it saves from motion is on the app. The app is where you set up and adjust anything you need to. There's so many features to this I was pleasantly surprised. You can choose what it detects, I turned off the animal sensory because I didn't want cats causing the lights to hit the houses behind me and it works! Doesn't pick up animal but does humans. You can choose to pick up vehicles also. You can have an alarm that sounds, record your own message, have flashing lights or solid, change the brightness. There's features that allows you to add a privacy screen so I can block out neighbours windows. You can set perimeters as to where you want the motion detector to work from. I have notifications set on the app and there's a schedule where you can choose when you want to be notified of movement. When you go on the app it shows you can see a live stream of the camera but it only saves clips from when motion was detected. These are easy enough to look back through. The video quality is good, you can see from my pics how wide the angle is and how clear the pictures are even when it was dark. The camera and light angled are easy to adjust by moving them on their mounts. You can pick up sound and talk through the app to the device, I guess making it similar to one of those smart doorbells. There's so many different features on the app, theres even a time lapse option! Very happy with this, I think its good value with so many features and so many adjustments you can make yourself to have it just how you want it. I recommend this.

Wide View Camera

I already have three Reolink cameras, but this 751W really stands out with its dual lenses that merge to give a super-wide 180° image, something my other cams just don’t come close to. It comes with a 64GB SD card pre-installed, though you can swap that out for a 256GB card if you want have more recording space. Setup is straightforward: you initially power it using a USB-C cable from your own supply to get the Wi-Fi and other settings configured. Since it’s wired to your mains (240Vac) and it’ll live outside in the weather, it’s probably best fitted by someone who knows their way around electrics. I connected mine to an existing outdoor light circuit, which now stays permanently on to keep the camera powered. One thing I liked straight away was the absence of those usual aerials; it makes the whole unit look clean and modern on the wall. Before mounting it, I’d recommend testing the Wi-Fi connection from that spot, especially if your signal’s a bit patchy. The built-in spotlights are incredibly bright but can be dimmed to suit your space. You can also adjust the colour temperature from crisp white to a more mellow yellow, depending on how harsh or subtle you want the light to be. You can schedule the lights or have them turn on automatically at dusk, or just switch them on manually from the app, which is brilliant if you’re heading out with the dogs at night. The camera’s wide view can easily stretch into neighbouring gardens; there is a feature in the app that lets you grey those areas out for privacy. Playback is great as it lets you filter recordings by people, pets, or vehicles and you can even us an AI search with searches like "person with blue coat". A few settings can feel a bit technical but go to the Reolink website which has a FAQ section that can walk you through things. There’s also a siren which you can also flash the spotlights for detections, with notifications to your phone if you are on holiday and want to keep an eye on visitors. It also has a built-in speaker and microphone, so you can hold a proper two-way conversation through the app. All my Reolink cameras have performed well above my expectations, and with great features and a solid build quality, I would recommend getting this camera.

Fantastic!

We’re really impressed with this. The installation was very quick and easy to do. The riolink app is also easy to navigate and gives you the option to set up various notifications, motion detect areas and speak. The image quality is fantastic and I love the added flood lights. It gives total piece of mind if we are out and a great home security option.

Johnny 5 is alive

Please note - this product needs electrical work. I purchased a 5amp 3 pin plug and 1 metre of 3 core cable and wired it myself, but you may need extra help! The Reolink Floodlight Series F751W comes in beautiful packaging with a lot of details about the product on the box. Inside it is well packaged with the instructions, stickers etc in the top part. Underneath this is the product including screws etc in lettered bags! First impressions of the camera/floodlight is that it is quite heavy, so that shows great build quality. I followed the instructions and powered it up using the USB-C cable (included) to a USB-A power adapter (not included). I scanned the QR code and downloaded the Reolink app and connected the camera to the app - all pretty straightforward. You will need a microSD card inserted to record images and videos as there is a cost to use the Cloud storage! It was at this point that I realised I needed external cable and plug to get it working (as the USB-C cable is for first time connection only). I’m quite savvy with cables, so I got it wired easily enough! I then took the camera outside to attach it to my wooden fence (close to my external 240v socket) - this was very easy and I used the mounting screws provided (it has a liquid leveler on the attachment plate). All that was left to do was attach the camera to the back plate, screw together and switch on the plug socket. When I opened the Reolink app I was able to see my back garden in what I believe is 4k resolution. I adjusted a few settings in the app for motion detection etc. The playback is quite wide angle, but that is to be expected as it has 2 cameras that look like Johnny 5 from the film Short Circuit, but is crystal clear. I messed around with it for a while, trying out the Time Lapse which is excellent as you can choose how often it takes a pic and for how long (I’m really loving this option). When I checked on the camera at night time I noticed the floodlight was staying on, so again it was just a matter of changing the settings to turn it off, but you can also choose how bright you want it to be, which is another great option. When the spotlights are off the black and white image is very clear - the camera picked up a cat in my garden at 3am, lol! I have it set to send me critical updates should an animal or human enter my back garden - this works a treat as I get an instant message to my Apple Watch (and phone). Overall I think this is a fantastic product that looks fantastic and does exactly what it is supposed to. If you’re looking for an LED floodlight with cameras then this product is for you.
