Reolink continues to be reliable

I have several other camera models from them and they are quite reliable. It was easy to install on a utility pole near my house so it could face the backyard. The setup at T-Mobile was pretty easy once I added an internet line and got their SIM card (definitely had to contact the support team). It's 2GB for $15/month and I'm not even close to that. I believe that only a constant daily broadcast will move you. Like their other cameras, the SD card feature comes in handy for storing footage and can last over 30 days on a 64GB card in my opinion. The image quality is certainly good, but not outstanding. If you need to zoom in on an image at all in an app, it really breaks the part. There's not much good there. It would be nice to see a higher quality image as a whole in case you really need to zoom in and out on something small like predators lurking in the yard killing our chickens! Speaking of the app, it's pretty reliable. In fact, you can share the cameras with a family member via a QR code as soon as you open the app on their phone (my wife and I both keep an eye on the yard and kids when they're away). Night vision is pretty cool too. We have a very bright urban LED street light that really lights up this part of our garden, allowing us to see almost everything around us as if it were daylight. Pan and tilt are good but there is a bit of lag, same goes for the audio connection. Good delay of 2-3 seconds. Overall I will continue to buy their products due to the above average picture quality, features and a very handy solar charging feature that works really well (even in MT winter) and is part of all 4 of my Reolink cameras. .
