Review on Reolink Argus Pro: Wireless Outdoor Security Camera, Rechargeable Battery-Powered, 1080P HD Night Vision, 2-Way Talk, PIR Motion Sensor, Siren Alert, Cloud Storage/SD Socket Support by Candace Hennessy

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good camera, with some tolerable problems

I like the size, reliability and functionality of this camera. However, the talkback function could be improved. Pros: - All functions are realistic and reliable. The app is very handy with the ability to be notified when the PIR sensor detects movement and storage options (cloud or native) - battery life seems reliable so far. As long as you're not recording all the time and motion-related activity in the camera area is minimal, I can actually see this battery lasting for weeks. Also, the battery charges fairly quickly, and in the meantime I'd suggest keeping a fully charged backup battery on hand just in case. and the functionality is definitely there, but the person next to the camera has to yell at the operator (the person using the app) to hear them. The audio is so weak from both sides, even at max volume and no background noise. - Ordering accessories for this version: I tried to order a black skin for it so that it is invisible from the outside, but it is mostly absent from Revain and completely sold out on the Reolink website. I ordered a camouflage, so I'll try it. I can order an Argus 2 for comparison, but for my home use it serves as a solid security camera.
