Over the years, I used a selection of security cameras around my home. My first is Google’s Nest outdoor camera, it is a great camera that’s rarely let me down, yet it is expensive and there are hidden extras to factor in, such as their Nest Aware and cloud backup services.
I also have a Ring Stickup camera in my back garden. This is a battery-powered camera, so there is the luxury of being able to place it anywhere within Wi-Fi range and leave it alone to do its thing.
Today we will be putting the Ring Stickup Camera against a new security camera that I have been given for review by Reolink. This is the Argus 2 from Reolink, and its specs run pretty similar to the Ring Stickup Camera, so in this video I will be comparing the two, to see which is worth buying.
Both cameras are very close in specifications. They record up to 1080p HD video, 130-degree diagonal viewing angle, with 2-way audio, and both have night vision support. They both can be used indoors or outdoors. They each have a removable rechargeable battery that can also be powered by an optional solar panel accessory. They both can detect motion, with motion alerts sent over wi-fi to their own smartphone app, that you can then watch the live recordings of the detected motion in question within the app.
Size wise they are very close with the Reolink being a little slimmer. The Reolink has better mounting options and abilities, thanks to its two mounting solutions and post strap, you can secure this camera pretty much anywhere!
I found the Reolink battery doesn't last as long as the Ring, but the Reolink charges faster and if you opt for the solar panel (and I think you should), this isn't an issue to worry about.
App alerts came a little late on the Reolink, and navigating locally stored historic videos was a little clunky in the app. Likely due to the processing power and sensitive Wi-Fi signal of the camera. Sometimes I found I got more alerts whilst logged into the app, than what the camera would send remotely.
Visual quality is where it counts though, and the Reolink Argus 2 has the Ring beat in both its daylight and more so in its night time captures. It is just overall sharper, cleaner, yet the audio could be improved on, as the pricier Google Nest has both beat in that department.
If you're looking for a low-cost entry security camera without a subscription modal, then the Argus 2 is definitely a camera would considering over the Ring Stick Up Camera and some other variants that are out there.
