Reolink has announced the arrival of its latest breakthrough: the Altas camera. This sophisticated 4MP Wi-Fi battery camera sets a new industry standard with its pioneering pre-recording capability, a feature that ensures you capture the critical moments leading up to any detected motion. Imagine receiving a doorstep delivery and having the entire approach recorded, or monitoring your property for extended periods without the constant worry of recharging. With Altas, long-lasting power and exceptional clarity, even in darkness, become a reality thanks to Reolink’s advanced ColorX technology, offering true peace of mind without any guesswork.
The highly anticipated Altas is now available for pre-order in the United Kingdom exclusively through Reolink.com and Amazon UK. For a retail price of £139.99, the Altas package includes a convenient 6-watt solar panel, offering a sustainable power solution. For a limited time, from now until 26th May, UK customers can secure their pre-order for just £1 and receive an exclusive 15% discount code directly via email. This special discount will be valid for purchases made between 27th May and 1st June, providing a fantastic opportunity to be among the first to experience this cutting-edge security solution.
What truly sets Altas apart is its intelligent pre-recording functionality. Unlike conventional battery-powered cameras that only begin recording after their Passive Infrared (PIR) sensor is triggered, the Reolink Altas proactively captures footage up to 10 seconds before any motion is detected. This seemingly small window of time makes a significant difference, ensuring that the entire sequence of events is recorded, from the initial subtle movement that might otherwise be missed to the full unfolding of an incident. Whether it’s a visitor approaching your door, the first signs of unusual activity, or even a fleeting moment you want to review, Altas ensures every crucial detail is preserved.
To provide truly continuous and worry-free protection, the Altas is equipped with a high-capacity 20,000mAh battery. On a single full charge, this robust power source allows for up to an impressive 336 hours (equivalent to 14 days) of continuous operation with the pre-recording function active. Furthermore, when operating in a motion-triggered mode utilising the PIR sensor, the Altas can extend its battery life for an astonishing period of up to 540 days – a calculation based on approximately 300 seconds of daily video capture. This exceptional battery performance minimises the need for manual recharging, offering unparalleled convenience.
To further enhance ease of use and sustainability, users have the option to seamlessly integrate the Altas with the included 6-watt solar panel. Remarkably, just one hour of direct sunlight exposure each day is sufficient to keep the camera continuously powered, even with the pre-recording function active. This eliminates the hassle of manual charging, reduces energy consumption, and ensures round-the-clock protection with minimal user intervention.
The Altas also incorporates Reolink’s state-of-the-art ColorX technology, a significant advancement in low-light vision. By utilising an ultra-large F1.0 aperture lens and a high-performance 1/1.8″ sensor, Altas can capture up to four times more light compared to traditional infrared (IR) cameras. The result is remarkably sharp, high-definition (2K resolution) footage with vivid and accurate colours, even in extremely dimly lit environments where conventional cameras struggle.
Beyond just brightness, ColorX technology is engineered to minimise common issues often encountered with spotlight-only cameras, such as harsh and blinding reflections from nearby walls or surfaces. This thoughtful design ensures that users receive clearer, more detailed, and ultimately more actionable video footage during nighttime monitoring.
For intelligent and proactive security, the Altas features advanced AI-powered detection capabilities for distinguishing between people, animals, and vehicles – all without requiring any subscription fees. Additionally, the inclusion of local storage options provides an extra layer of security and control over your recorded footage.
With the launch of the Altas camera, Reolink reaffirms its commitment to pushing the boundaries of smart home security. By seamlessly integrating advanced features with an intuitive and user-focused design, Altas delivers a more complete, reliable, and user-friendly protection solution for the demands of everyday life.
