It subs in a 120º field of view for Argus 2's 130º view-it also lacks starlight night vision and a removable battery.
#ARGUS DEVELOPER REVIEW PRO#
We found only a single difference: Argus Pro doesn't come with a magnetic wall mount. Argus Pro: The Reolink Argus Pro is virtually indistinguishable from the Argus 2.Read our Reolink Argus 2 review to learn more. Overall, it's a solid alternative to the Argus 3 Pro. It doesn't have the 1440p video or a bright spotlight. Unlike the Argus 3 Pro, Argus 2's battery is removable, and the camera has a 130º field of view.
Argus 2: The Reolink Argus 2 improved on the original Argus by adding a rechargeable lithium-ion battery, and it was the company's first foray into solar security cameras.Although the original Reolink Argus security camera is no longer available, it spawned a whole collection of options you can still buy: The Reolink Argus 3 Pro is the latest in a line of cameras stretching back to the original Reolink Argus in 2017. Still, it might work for you on a table or bookshelf for use as a simple baby monitor or indoor camera. We found it convenient for our indoor tests, but it's not as adjustable as the other brackets. The stand bracket is nothing more than a plastic cradle that keeps the camera upright when resting on a surface.While it attaches to surfaces the same way as the security bracket, the magnetic mount might be a better option indoors or in places beyond the reach of curious hands that might remove it from the bracket. The magnetic bracket attaches a strong magnet to the back of the camera, making it easy to mount and reposition on the accompanying bracket.This is the most stable mounting option and is your best choice for mounting the camera outdoors. The security bracket screws to the back of the camera and attaches to the wall via screws or a hanging mount but also fits on a tree or pole if you use the included loop strap.Installation was also an easy lift because the camera comes with three mounting brackets for maximum flexibility:
This is helpful because you can choose to ignore categories to cut down on extra videos and notifications. This is great for ignoring passing cars or overactive pets patrolling the house.ĭespite lacking motion zones, the Reolink Argus 3 Pro's motion recording can differentiate between people, vehicles, and other motion. We love motion zones because you can set a camera to record only when there's motion within a certain part of the video frame, like a door, window, or sidewalk. We suspect that Reolink nixed motion zones in order to improve battery life-since they rely on video-but it's still disappointing. This allows the camera to detect motion in complete darkness without relying on video-based motion triggers and infrared LEDs, which would drain the rechargeable battery quickly.Īlthough we like that you can adjust the motion sensitivity, the camera lacks one of the more helpful motion detection features of competitors: motion zones. One of the first things you'll notice about the Argus 3 Pro's design is a dome-shaped infrared motion sensor just below the camera's lens.
