The Argus 4 Pro is the camera we would fit to most UK homes first. Its dual-lens design merges into a 180-degree ultra-wide panorama (5120x1440, 8MP), so a single unit can cover a driveway or back garden that would otherwise need two cameras. Reolink's ColorX sensor produces full-colour footage in very low light without a spotlight, and everything records to a local microSD card (up to 512GB) or a Reolink Home Hub, so there is no compulsory subscription. It runs on a 5000mAh rechargeable battery with an optional 6W solar panel, and connects over dual-band Wi-Fi. Setup is straightforward, though the app is feature-dense and Reolink's smart-home integrations are less polished than the big-name rivals.

The good & the bad

Pros

  • Sharp 4K footage across a wide 180-degree field of view
  • Records locally with no mandatory monthly subscription
  • Strong full-colour night vision from the ColorX sensor

Cons

  • App is powerful but cluttered for newcomers
  • Weaker Alexa and Google Home integration than Ring or Nest
