It's a great camera; it even supports FTP/SFTP to my NAS in addition to storing everything on a microSD card. So on the very off chance that someone totally destroys the camera, I still have a copy of everything without needing to pay for cloud storage.
It also supports Alexa/Google Home as a chime (Nest Mini/Nest Hub/etc), and can stream the live camera footage to any Google Cast compatible screens (including any of those devices with screens themselves, like my Nest Hub).
Also a little tip -- Reolink charges extra for "Rich Previews" (I forget the naming), but it's for preview images inside of Motion Notifications (like thumbnails before you go into the app, in the notification previews themselves). You can get this feature for free by enabling email notifications and using the email address for service like Pushover/Pushbullet/etc. They're near-instant too.

my major requirements- when someone presses the doorbell i can look at the doorbell on my phone with live video. also to record locally without having to pay a monthly fee.
Motion detection and people detection are really bad on the camera i agree. But i imagine if you had it hooked up to blueiris or something it would be better.

I've got one, and got lucky in that Cat3 was run to my old doorbell switch. Was easy to put an RJ-45 connectors on it, and plug the other end of the cable into my PoE switch, which I happened to locate in the coat closet where the doorbell transformer lives.

There are some forums on reddit mentioning that issue has been there for a while when connected with Alexa echo. I ended up returning it.

Not a good personal experience, ended up returning it. RTSP drops, random disconnects, etc. I spent a good couple weeks troubleshooting and I had very specific needs to integrate the doorbell within Blue Iris and Frigate for object detection. Video quality (when it worked), was great. I wanted to improve the video over the Amcrest Ad410 but ended up installing back the 410 because I have 0 problems with it with Internet access blocked.
