Home Hub Pro, Centralized Control for up to 24 REOLINK Security Cameras, up to 16TB HDD Storage, 2TB HDD Included, AES-128 Encryption, 16MP Streaming, Wi-Fi 6, 120dB Siren. No Monthly Fees

I've been using the REOLINK Home Hub Pro for the past five months, and I can confidently say I am extremely happy with my purchase. It has become the central nervous system of my home security, managing all my Reolink cameras with absolute precision and no issues whatsoever. From the moment I unboxed it, the quality was evident. Setting it up was straightforward, and integrating my existing Reolink cameras (both wired and Wi-Fi) was surprisingly seamless. The promise of no monthly fees for storage was a huge draw, and the included 2TB HDD, expandable up to a massive 16TB, means I have ample local storage for all my 24/7 recordings without worrying about subscription costs or cloud vulnerabilities. The centralized control for up to 24 security cameras is a game-changer. I can view and manage all my cameras from a single interface on the Reolink app, which is incredibly convenient. The 16MP streaming is fantastic, providing crystal-clear live views and playback, allowing me to zoom in on details with impressive clarity. The Wi-Fi 6 connectivity ensures that my cameras have a stable and fast connection to the hub, even those further away from my router. I've experienced absolutely no lag or drops in connection, which is crucial for reliable security monitoring. The AES-128 encryption for stored data provides peace of mind, knowing my footage is secure and private. And while I haven't had to rely on it frequently, the 120dB siren is a powerful deterrent, offering an extra layer of security that can be triggered manually or automatically by smart detection events. In five months of continuous operation, this hub has performed flawlessly. It's truly a "set it and forget it" solution that just works. If you have multiple Reolink cameras or are planning to expand your system and want robust local storage, advanced features, and absolute reliability without recurring fees, the REOLINK Home Hub Pro is an investment you won't regret. It has exceeded my expectations in every way.

7/2/2025 : I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS! It has been ROCK SOLID for the past few months! I have not missed a single visitor or package! I was able to remove false notifications almost completely! And all for NO SUBSCRIPTION! Reolink are making some amazing devices! This is their newer style of NVR, and I highly recommend you doing your research, to figure out specifically what you need. This is definitely the future direction. I have one camera and one doorbell camera, and this has worked out perfectly so far, I have not felt a need to upgrade the hdd! Super snappy notifications. I recommend this system 2000% 3/23/2025 : It was pretty easy to set up with the Reolink doorbell. I played with the options, quite pleased with the results. I do wish that (1) after 5 minutes of an event push notification, pressing the notification would take me to the event recording instead of the live view, (2) the iOS app would remember my filter preferences when I go to playback, otherwise I always have to set it (I almost always just care about people, not motion). Works solid on my network through LAN, and connects with doorbell through home wifi (I turned hub wifi off). Looking forward to setting up everything with poe, for more peace of mind. I can definitely recommend this as a great option for home camera security. The Reolink camera video and audio quality are excellent compared to other competitors!

Like most REOLINK products this is a cool idea with glitchy technology. I ordered the Home Hub Pro and was excited to test it out. The instructions are simple, plug into the power source, plug into the router add device via the app. The first two were easy but the app kept telling me to use a stable network. Mind you this is a network that has 30 devices on it including 8 REOLINK wireless cameras, all working fine. Ok fine, maybe this product has a compatibility issue because it is a European design. So I send a email asking for technical assistance. 24hrs later hours later I get an email saying they will be happy to help me set up my *camera*. I said no it was connecting the Home Hub I was having problems with. 24 hrs later I get an email saying did you plug it in. Yes. 24hrs later what is the color of the light. Red I answer. 24hrs later an email tell us exactly the process you used to set up. I gave up and returned the product.

Update 2: (4 of 5 stars) To Reolink's further credit, they refunded the value of the failed drive alone. I am even more impressed with their customer service now. ------------------ Update: (3 of 5 stars) To Reolink's credit, they reached out and offered a refund despite being slightly outside Amazon's return window. I have been impressed with their customer service thus far. I opted to buy an 8TB WD Blue surveillance drive. I installed it in the Home Hub Pro, it formatted quickly, and has been working fine thus far (~1 week in). My working theory remains: the 2 TB HDD that comes with the Home Hub Pro may not be designed to handle 24/7 surveillance writing, thus they overheat and don't last very long. The HDD is the primary differentiator between the "Pro" and non-Pro version of the Home Hub, so if that HDD is not reliable, there's not much reason to buy the Pro variant. I recommend Reolink sell the Home Hub Pro in a "diskless" version so the customer can install whatever drive they like. I also see people in the comments saying that you can supplement storage with microSD. The Home Hub PRO cannot mix microSD and HDD storage: you are restricted to one or the other, not both. Because the Pro differentiator is the onboard HDD, I would buy the Pro if you need significant video storage provided by HDD, and buy the non-Pro version if you don't or you only stream video live. ------------------ Original review: (2 of 5 stars) I am on my second Home Hub Pro, and about to submit another return, pondering whether to get a third one. My first Hub had a drive that never worked out of the box. I got a replacement free of charge - no issues with this process. This second Hub worked fine for ~6 weeks, right around the time the hard drive filled up. Then the drive gives continuous formatting errors and it will no longer record video. Reformatting the drive worked once for a few hours. Now it won't format or mount anymore. I even swapped the hard drive for an old one I had on hand - a feature I appreciate - and it won't mount either. All other features seem to work fine. Once setup, the Home Hub is stable and performs great in a 'set it and forget it' mode. I never had issues with connectivity to any of the cameras I connected it to. The app works great. I found the software easy to setup, especially using a PC for the initial configuration, with plenty of optional features to explore and setup if desired. I am happy with the level of tweak-ability offered. I am thinking of either: trying a third Hub OR switching to the largest microSD card I can find. Maybe they handle flash memory better than hard drives. Given how frequently these things have drive issues, I also would like to see some way to export all my settings to apply to a new unit. There is no information accessible that explains WHY the hard drive won't format or mount. My speculation is they overheated. When I pull the drives out, they are hot to the touch. The Hub runs very quiet, which could mean it's not getting adequate airflow.

Testing a migration from a heavily invested Arlo build-out. yes, the Reolink App can run in Linux using Wine, not CrossOver Office (currently). Works great. 24/7 recording. Kind of quirky where you have to select each stream to use "High" to get better quality while watching live streaming, but works as expected. Lots of configurable options. The HDD in my unit failed after a week. A Toshiba drive. I'll probably get a WD Red or Purple as a permanent HDD, but for now i threw in a spare Seagate 2TB and its working fine. I cant fault Reolink for another vendors crap HDD. There are no Rich notifications on phone app unless you use a doorbell cam. I don't use the Hub WiFi. I use it to pair new cameras, then switch to my home WiFi mesh and turn off the Hub WiFi.

Reolink is by far one of the easiest cameras to install and configure (and I've been doing this for almost 30 years). Set-up was a breeze, no monthly fees whatsoever, and a huge variety of cameras to choose from. I'll definitely be using the Home Pro Hub and Reolink cameras much more in the future.

You buy these devices and expect them to work out of the box correctly. No. That's not today's world. You have to fight and fight with these things to get it to work. The Home Hub Pro needs to be connected to a hard wired connection to a LAN. Can't use the WiFi. No. We're in 2001 here. WiFi isn't fast enough for video apparently. After you juggle with that (meaning you have to purchase a WiFi Access Point with a LAN connection). Then comes working with the cameras. The Home Hub Pro is basically a WiFi Router (#smh). But don't connect your devices to the 5ghz network it provides. They don't work on that one. No one tells you that. You just have to "know". Then you get the device to connect but.... it's not REALLY connected. Takes about 12 hours (overnight) for the devices to finally connect and be usable. The rest of my outrage is as below. I stand by it and AMAZON post this or I'll post the whole thing to X and every other social media I can find saying YOU wouldn't --- NO WIFI?!?!? Are you SERIOUS? The device HAS to be connected via Ethernet LAN Cable. A 3 FOOT LONG ETHERNET CABLE? ARE YOU SERIOUS??????????????? And then from AI: Many of the Home Hub Pro units come pre-installed with a Toshiba DT02ABA200V (2 TB) as the “stock” drive. It works out of the box, but it’s not ideal for heavy 24/7 video surveillance. I haven't even turned this thing on and I'm ticked at it. This is over priced.

Bought this camera kit to keep an eye on a loved one going through dementia. Works like a charm. Easy to setup, cameras were easy to connect. Visual and audio clarity is spot on, no issues whatsoever. Cameras are set to notify me of activity, which is a nice reminder that the loved one is up and moving around. Really a good buy, looking to expand with more cameras. I don't really use the pan and tilt regularly, though I did use it in the beginning to setup the camera field of view, it's a bit touchy and not really alot of fine control, but was doable.
