i have the pro. thinking about upgrading because i use it at the entrance of our house but the camera is around 8 to 10 meters away. you can see the person but you dont get any good shot from the face. i wonder if you can see the face better with the ultra. but in your comparison video i actually could see better with the pro version. idk why^^ i was also thinking about the trackmix but it has a lower resolution but a telelens with 6x zoom. not sure if its better than 4k without zoom or not

I would not recommend a PIR camera for the house entrance. PIR cameras have a short wake-up time. With fast movements and possibly unfavorable mounting location of the PIR camera, it can happen that relevant events are not recorded or are recorded too late. I would tend towards a PoE/Wifi camera. The TrackMix is recommended.

@@Zincer hm i am using the argus 3 pro currently and i am quite satisfied with the reaction time. I do record everybody who is going to my door (its around 4 meter way to my door). I am just not satisfied with the picture quality. Its not possbile to identiy somebody by the face. Just the whole body ( when you know the person, you can tell that it is that person, but you can bot show the police a picture and tell them to search this man^^ because the face is just some pixels). So i need better quality. I am not sure uprading from pro to ultra would make a big difference. But The trackmix (i talk about the Solar verison, so same as argus ultra) has the telelens with 6x zoom. But the resolution of the telelens is much lower. Not sure what result would be better.

​@@WiNNiep00hFor such Purpose, consider a PoE Switch, a good Quality 30m Cat6 (flat) Cable and Reolinks Model RLC823a. IT has Superior IR out of all Reolink Models and can easily identify anything within that Range. Hope this helps!

Can we view the camera stream on our smart watch with Google Home?

The 3 Ultra works with Google Home and Alexa. With Google Home, the live stream of the camera can be played on the Google Nest Hub or Chromecast-enabled TV.

I need some help, the wifi qr code is not scanning at all, lens is crisp and clean. I was using for the past couple of years with no issues, but nos I have changed modem equipment and need to setup again, it just does bot want to scan that qr code. I want to open and wipe the inner lens maybe?

Sometimes scanning the QR code is a bit tricky. Try it: Take a snapshot of the QR code with your mobile phone. Instead of the QR code from the app, scan the QR code from the snapshot. Has something to do with the screen brightness. It is best to switch to a slightly darker environment for scanning.

Easy fix, need to turn your phone's dark mode UI off so the QR code is displayed over a white background.

I think your issues is lighting. Make sure you are in an adequate lit room.

Is it worth it to upgrade from Pro to Ultra?

That depends on your needs. If you just need a camera to take a quick look and don't care about the quality, then definitely no. The 3 Pro does a very good job with its 2K (see for example here: www.reddit.com/r/reolinkcam/comments/13rcge4/traveling_with_the_argus_3_pro If you need sharp and detailed footage in 4K and USB-C, then definitely YES 👍🏼
