Reolink RLK8-800B6 8-Channel 4K 6-Camera Kit Review 2026
Sep 29, 2026
In this Reolink RLK8-800B6 8-channel 4K 6-camera kit review, the answer is simple: this kit ranks fifth of ten in our 2026 PoE guide because it delivers six true 4K cameras without the cost of a 16-channel system. The package pairs six B800 bullet cameras with an 8-channel NVR and a pre-installed 2TB hard drive for $755.99, about $126 per camera, and it holds a 4.4-star rating from 914 Amazon ratings. It suits homes where coverage stops at six to eight cameras: front and rear yards, a driveway and a couple of doors. Buyers who already know they need more than eight cameras should skip straight to a 16-channel kit.
The hardware explains most of the appeal. Each camera records 4K at 8MP (3840 x 2160), which keeps faces and plates readable when you zoom in, and the 87-degree lens covers a driveway or a side gate. Eighteen infrared LEDs push night vision to 100 feet, while 3D-DNR reduces the grain that ruins most dark clips. In practice, setup is plug and play: cameras connect to the NVR over Ethernet runs up to 300 feet, and the free Reolink app finds them in about three steps on iOS, Android, Windows or Mac. Meanwhile, person, vehicle and animal detection filters out shadows and pets, so alerts stay meaningful. Recording runs 24/7, on a schedule or on motion, using H.265 to stretch the 2TB drive.
Value is where this kit separates itself. Six 4K cameras, an 8-channel NVR and a 2TB drive for $755.99 undercut most 16-channel bundles in our guide, and the storage path stays open: an external drive adds up to 8TB, or two 8TB drives expand the NVR to 16TB. That said, 2TB fills up fast with six 4K streams, so plan on a second drive within the first year. Even so, the expansion costs far less than a bigger NVR. Two smaller trade-offs are worth knowing: recording tops out at 20fps instead of 30fps, and the lens is fixed, so you aim it by hand. On the plus side, a 2-year warranty and lifetime tech support cover the DIY setup. If six to eight cameras cover your property, this is the kit to buy.
