REOLINK 360° PT: problems, parts and running costs
Checked: 2026-10-20
Summary
The REOLINK 360° PT is a legacy indoor pan-tilt camera that Reolink no longer lists: the product page returns 404, the model is missing from the current manual categories, and the listing identifier once tied to it now points at the outdoor Argus PT. No owner reports, no independent test and no warranty terms exist for the exact model, so what a buyer runs into is identification and support trouble rather than known hardware faults. No other price was found, so no price threshold can be given, and the yearly running cost cannot be computed.
Common problems and fixes
- The old listing identifier now points at a different camera — the identifier previously tied to this model (B07W6PXRR8) resolves to the Argus PT, an outdoor battery pan-tilt camera, so anything shown under it describes a different device [3]. Check the model name and the 5 MP 2880 × 1616 indoor specification on the listing before you buy. Warranty is not the issue here: the listing is for other hardware.
- No product page, no manual and no model-specific support — the Reolink product URL returns 404 and the model is absent from the current download center manual categories, which cover the Argus, Go, PoE, WiFi and NVR/doorbell series [1]. Reolink’s support search for “360 PT” returns 288 results, and the visible ones are for the Argus PT, Go PT and RLC-423; the closest match, an article titled “PT Angle Becomes Smaller”, covers pan-tilt cameras generally [2]. Workaround: set the camera up from the app and expect to handle faults yourself.
- Warranty, RMA and firmware status are unknown — no 360° PT-specific warranty, repair or maintenance information was found, and Reolink’s warranty page could not be read [1][2]. Treat coverage as zero: no warranty, no replacement, no firmware updates. Buy only where returns are easy, and keep the camera on a low-stakes indoor spot.
- The published specifications are unconfirmed — 5 MP at 2880 × 1616, a 21.6 Wh rechargeable battery, night vision to 10 m, microSD up to 128 GB, a 90° horizontal field of view and a 477 g weight could not be checked against a live manufacturer page [1]. Compare the unit you receive against that list; if it does not match, it is not this model.
Parts and consumables
- microSD card (up to 128 GB) — the camera records locally to a card; no card cost is on record and no owner reports exist on how often it gets replaced [1][2].
- Rechargeable battery (21.6 Wh) — the battery lets the camera sit on a shelf with no cable to the wall; the charging method and power input are unconfirmed, and no spare battery or accessory is published for this model [1][2].
Yearly running cost
Not enough data to compute a yearly figure. Whether a subscription applies to core features on this model was never confirmed, and there is no card cost, no battery replacement interval and no electricity figure on record; the only recurring spend would be replacing a worn microSD card [1][2].
When it is a good buy
No other price was found for this exact model, so no price threshold can be given. The manufacturer’s page is gone and the model is not in the current catalog [1]. No retailer listing for this exact model was confirmed, and no independent test or owner record exists for it [3][4]. Any sum you pay buys discontinued hardware with no documentation behind it, so the sensible use is a low-stakes indoor spot with easy returns and no expectation of warranty, RMA or firmware updates [2]. If you want an indoor pan-tilt camera from the current Reolink line, the E1 and E1 Pro are the models to compare, and the E1 appears among the current Reolink products in search results [4]. For outdoor battery coverage the current model is the Argus PT — a different camera, and the one the old identifier now points at [3]. If you are shopping by the “360°” name, the current Reolink products carrying it are the Altas PT Ultra, TrackMix and the FE-P fisheye, none of which is this model [1][4].
