Review on 🎥 REOLINK 5MP Weatherproof PoE Camera (Set of 2) for Indoor/Outdoor IP Security Surveillance with 100ft IR Night Vision, Motion Detection, Smart Home Compatible, Support Up to 128GB SD Card, RLC-410-5MP by Kenneth Barnes

I bought a set of two RLC-410-5MP at the same time with SV3C SV-B06POE-1080P-A, similar, much cheaper bullet camera. I'd like to buy more SV3Cs instead. The Reolink RLC-410-5MP is a miserable failure as a security camera when paired with the market-leading Blue Iris camera software. The camera signal is constantly being lost, resulting in clipping or no recording. It's just unreliable, and an unreliable security camera is a mistake. For this reason alone I advise against buying it. Reolinks also has rather poor IR illumination with a pronounced hotspot in the center of the image. The SV3C has a wide and even backlight. Although Reolink has a higher resolution on paper, in practice there is no significant difference. At night, the SV3C's picture is much clearer. The Reolink design also appears to be more prone to cobwebs and rain as it has a relatively limited screen over the lens. Of the two Reolinks I received, one arrived without all the parts for the waterproof ethernet case. Luckily this wasn't critical in my use case. The Reolink software is (marginally) better than the dreadful SV3C software, but neither is a prime example of utility. The extra price of Reolink just isn't worth it. The significantly cheaper SV3C delivers a better picture and is very stable in performance. Plus, you can buy (almost) three SV3Cs for the price of two Reolinks.
