Customers are mixed about the motion detection of the security camera. Some mention that it seems pretty close, is able to pick up motion and provide identifiable video, and the sensor is awesome. However, others say that the motion can be a slight disappointment, depending on how the camera is mounted. The camera constantly picks up peripheral motion, triggering many events. It also takes a while to detect motion and the sensitivity is horrible.

For security, the app requires login at each access. However, it can accept the iPhone's fingerprint recognition, so quick and easy.
My one reservation is the outdoor mount. Indoors, as long as the camera can be set or hung vertically, the magnetic ball mount is great. However, the outdoor mount, meant to support just about any mounting position and camera angle, is plastic, and feels incredibly flimsy. In fairness, I've been using it for over a year in true 4-season weather, and it hasn't failed. But its build quality just seems far below that of the camera. It's designed to be repeatable, in that the mount snaps off the base, and an index is intended to let it snap back in to the same position. But I find it impossible to maintain the camera's position on the mount. Things come loose. If the camera does have to be manipulated for cleaning or other reasons, I have to reposition it using the phone app to confirm the desired view.
It would also be nice if Reolink would work with Wink and SmartThings to get their devices to be explicitly recognized by the hubs, although neither hub seems to be enjoying much development effort at the moment.
Another note is that to integrate it with other home automation systems like Alexa, using motion sensing to turn on lights, for example, it may have to be explicitly made available in the Reolink app. On my iPhone, this is accomplished by opening the app and, on the initial screen, choosing the "Cloud" option near the top. I never noticed that option, even though it's right there, and I'd seen it hundreds of times. Anyway, selecting it presents two others, "Cloud Storage" and "Smart Home." In the latter, just select the camera's icon and press "enable." If an icon is not visible for your camera, the firmware probably needs to be updated, and that may require contacting customer support. But not to worry, Reolink's support has been outstanding. I worked through email, primarily with Fiona. She understood what was needed, communicated effectively and frequently, made things happen on her end, and followed up well. Everything she promised was delivered. Thanks also to Crystal for her assistance. When so many customer support experiences go badly, or not at all, it's especially refreshing to be able to report a delightful one.
Definitely recommended.

Pro's
Incredibly easy to hang, setup and use the app (Very user friendly)
Battery life is amazing (I have had if for 3 months and charged it once. I'm in the yellow again so may need to charge it again soon)
Picture is very clear at all times
Cons
A bit of a delay when visitors arrive
Must purchase the SD card for full value of the camera (if you don't have the card it won't record anything- it's essentially just a live camera feed)
When I first installed the camera I had the PIR set on high and it was picking up every leaf that fell. It was autumn so you can imagine how many alerts I received (I turned off the alerts as well). Mine is set to low now and I still get a few squirrels and street traffic but its not too bad. Ironically it doesn't ever pick up when I drive up and down my driveway which is a bit of a concern but not terribly important.
I have not used the chat function yet so I cannot comment.
I will say there is a bit of a delay on when the video recording kicks on. It does not pick up when people enter my doorway. If they linger a bit before they leave then I am able to catch their face. For example, sometimes I just see the mailperson/ Amazon delivery person leave as opposed to walking up and putting my mail in the box. This is a bit of an issues but for the cost I kinda expected this.
I do like that I am able to hide the camera in the corner up high and still catch movement. People have no idea I have a camera unless I point it out or eventually use the chat function to scare them.
The camera works for my needs and was very easy to install and use. For the cost, it gets the job done.

I have connected my cameras to existing solar panels I have from a Swann wireless system, but any solar panel with a micro usb connector will fit the camera. I also used the old Swann magnetic mounts I have in place and these cameras stick to them perfectly.
They are reliable and even when viewing remotely they will connect quickly (which my previous system did not do every time). The resolution of the camera is acceptable when on higher resolution settings, especially considering its wireless.
I like how the software embeds the date and time in the recording (this setting can be customised in the app).
In relation to the app. I can only speak of the iPhone app, but I feel like it could be improved. Things such as having Thumbnails of all cameras on one screen like a traditional security camera monitor would be nice (this can be done temporarily, but defaults back to single cameras).
Overall I am impressed with the quality and features of this product.
