A camera that is looking elsewhere is not covering the yard · review
Reolink TrackMix WiFi review
Two lenses in one housing — a wide one that keeps the whole scene and a telephoto one that follows a subject — combined into a single tracked image. Reolink states 4K full color day and night, dual-band Wi-Fi 6 and storage to card, FTP or its own hub.
The conclusion The top of this hub and the only camera here that both keeps the wide scene and identifies a subject. Expensive, and the only one of its kind.
Every tracking camera faces the same problem: the moment it zooms in on a
person, it stops recording the yard. TrackMix answers it with two lenses in
one housing — a wide one that keeps the whole scene, and a telephoto that
follows the subject — and combines them.
Why that arrangement matters
Footage from a single tracking camera tends to show a close view of somebody
against an unidentifiable background. Footage from this one shows the same
person and the place they were, at the same moment. That is the difference
between a recording that raises a question and a recording that answers one.
No subscription anywhere in it
Reolink states a microSD card of up to 512 GB, an FTP server of your own, its Home Hub and Hub Pro, or its PoE and Wi-Fi NVRs. None of them bills monthly, and 24/7 recording is supported. For a camera at this price that matters: a cloud plan over several years can reach the price of the camera.
What you are paying for, and when not to
Two sensors, two lenses, Wi-Fi 6 on both bands, and 4K color at night from
integrated spotlights. On a small garden none of it is necessary, and a 2K
sweeping camera at a fifth of the price answers every question you will
actually ask. On a long drive, a wide frontage or a commercial-scale plot,
nothing cheaper in this hub does the job at all.
Who it suits
The single camera on a property that has to do everything. Buy it for the
second lens, not for the megapixels.

The questions we are asked
What does the second lens solve?
The oldest problem with a tracking camera: when it zooms in on somebody, it loses the rest of the scene. Two lenses mean the wide view keeps recording the whole yard while the telephoto follows the subject, so the footage shows both what happened and where it happened.
Does it need a subscription?
No. Reolink states a card of up to 512 GB, FTP to a server of your own, or its Home Hub. That is the structural difference between this camera and the subscription-based systems: the running cost is a card, once.
Is it worth several times the price of the entry model?
Only if you need what it does. On a small garden, a 2K sweeping camera answers every question you will ask of it. On a long drive or a wide frontage where somebody has to be identifiable at the far end, nothing cheaper here does the job at all.
Our score
8.4/ 10
