that would be amazing I am contemplating changing to a camera with nvr from Reolink to replace all of my current ones.. and I need a video doorbell. I had the Doorbird and now using the google one...
one thing the Doorbird has is a button in the app to open the door and then s way to connect that to the door actuator for an electric loch AND and connection to the API of a smart lock...
the google one makes short movies witch is even better then a still image ...
would be amazing to have an integrated one with the camera system in order to get the time stamp of the whole system so you can see what was happening around your property around the time of the doorbell push
what would be the time frame that such a doorbell would go to market...
kind regards

@cwleth_495534361215110 I also support the request to include a relay or somethinng it is able to control an electrical door/gate opener with.

I have a suggestion regarding tamper protection for the POE version: if the NVR detects that the doorbell has been tampered with or stolen (i.e., removed from the wall without first removing it from the NVR's channels), the NVR will software lock down the ethernet port being used by the tampered doorbell.
This is so that no one can gain access to the NVR or the rest of the network by ripping out the doorbell and plugging into the exposed ethernet wire.
This would be great for all POE cameras, but the doorbell is most exposed due to it's location. The feature could also be 'paused' while installing and the user could turn it on in the NVR after the installation is set. -
@aaron Thank you for all your detailed suggestions! We will forward your demand to the product team.

REALLY need PoE on the doorbell. Hopefully there will be another option/version vs. just wifi, or better, just make it with both PoE and wifi.
Thanks -
@rdunavent_430097646895270 Our doorbell camera supports both PoE and WiFi.

Small and maybe stupid question. A nice to have is a connection to one or more tablet, so that once in house it is possible to answer the door bell / see who is and open the door, the gate or possibly the dropbox for deliveries.
As well alert to the phone, once door bell is pressed and no one is in house. Same interface that make possible to interact and see who is and open the drop box for delivery, if available. -
Hi, I am already fully in the reolink products, cameras, NVR
I have looked at a lot of doorbells, and can't wait for this one.
A lot of my requirements are already fulfilled.
But these one would also be nice:
- very fast response to notifications. When you get a notification you want to talk to the person at the door right away, or he is already gone.
- integration with Homeassistent. The best smartphone system there is
- onvif / rtsp support -
@reolink-lorenz Hi Lorenz! Just curious if Reolink is offering a program for early adopters to beta test the new doorbell prior to official release? If so, I’m so excited and would love the opportunity to be a part of that program. Thank you - Joe

Please be able to integrate with existing Reolink NVR systems. Also, a wireless indoor plug in chime, like Arlo has with their doorbell. If a separate basestation is needed like Arlo and Eufy, that’s fine as long as it integrates into a Reolink NVR.
-
that sounds great! was about to replace my existing cheap-a**e amazon one which is hopelessly slow with RING, but since I've already several other 810a camera in place, I will wait and won't go the RING / EUFY way.
-
@reolink-fiona Would love to see support for MQTT as this would make smart home integration easier for software like Home Assistant.
-
The most important would be a direct bell transformer connection for power and using the bell wired in this line. This works very well with the Ring 2 - a better WLAN, NVR integration and faster connection to the mobile phone would be great. Then I would definitely replace the existing ring...

I'm tired of paying a yearly fee for my doorbell camera so I did a search and found this thread searching for a Reolink doorbell camera. The two most important features I'm interested in are:
1) It becomes available soon.
2) It works reliably. -
@reolink-fiona I think this is a great start, I would love to see the possibility of a dual camera doorbell. I know that Eufy is the few to do this and I think that reolink can blow it out of the water in this category. The video quality is key so 2K wide angled lens is the way to go. Alot of doorbell users want to get away from the subscription based doorbells (google, ring etc) The market is huge in this category and I know it will make all reolink users extremely happy. There is no doubt that if you can improve on what other doorbell cameras are missing than you will see a lot of conversions and revenue on this potential product. I myself am waiting patiently because I can't stand my google doorbell, and I was about to go to Eufy with their new dual camera doorbell but their HDR quality is terrible. I highly recommend looking at some video reviews of Eufy Dual Camera and see what is missing. The link below is a well documented review of the pros and cons of the Eufy system. I know Reolink will excel in bringing a superior doorbell camera to the market. Cannot wait!!!!

Last but not least, I think customization is key to separating from the market. Google allows you to do themes such as a Christmas or Halloween Theme. I would like to see a step further, allowing a custom ringtone or audio recording for when the doorbell is pressed for the guest to hear. Alternatively, notification chime on smart devices could be a custom or theme selection as well. I swear the nerds of the world will buy this like crazy if you can use your favorite movie theme song or audio recording. Small feature in the grand scheme as I know a lot of others have posted more technical and security features that I agree are essential for protection and tampering. -
I'm really looking forward to this offering. Can't wait to see it when it's released.

In our schedule, there will be a trial program for the doorbell. But it may be changed according to the actual arrangement in the future. Stay tuned with us!
