4K+ Ultra HD 12MP PoE Security Camera Outdoor with Spotlight, Human/Vehicle Detection, Color Night Vision, Two-Way Audio, Motion Alerts, RLC-1212A

Updated 26/06/2025 - unfortunately this camera failed recently, it stopped showing an image in the App and my NVR and the web UI became inaccessible. A factory reset did not help. I completed a support request on the Reolink web site and within a couple of days they approved a return for replacement. All in all a 10-day turnaround which is awesome and so refreshing to see a manufacturer standing by their products! Original review - This is my 14th Reolink camera, I have various models. This one has a slightly narrower and shorter FOV than some of my others, but at 12MP it means it's a higher pixel density and therefore a higher quality image. For my particular application (looking across front of house towards front door and driveway) the FOV covers more than enough area and the higher quality image means I can zoom in digitally and still get a very good image.

Easy setup and very good visually. Picture quality is excellent and the night vision is impressive.

I've been using Reolink cameras for a long time now, have six in total. Just upgraded my front 4k with the 12mp. Better quality video and has a wider POV. Person, pet and vehicle detection has gotten better. Easy to setup and install. Would highly recommend.

Got this to cover our cars but found the field of view a bit too narrow so it now covers our side of the house. Quality is good and the siren and microphone work very well. The LED light also seem good but I have floodlights so could not see any benefit.

Very easy set up. Good app. Only negative is that it’s not compatible with Reolink cloud storage. Bought a second one after the success of the first one.

This is definitely a step up from older HD reolink and the really bright spotlight is great. Using the spotlight turns the night time vision into colour. Only downside, is that its still too sensitive to rain and cobwebs despite adjusting the settings to trigger after say 2 seconds. Software these days should be able to filter this out? Maybe reolinks next update will have AI :)

Bought to add to my reolink system really easy to set up and picture quality is fantastic, day or night.

I have a few different models of Reolink cameras all 5MP HD but I want to upgrade to the latest and greatest which was this one. So far so good, the footage is stored on the microSD card and accessed via the app. Picture is good and has all the features I need. I’ll be buying more when their on offer again to upgrade the rest of my cameras.
