Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought the Arlo Pro 3 (6th Gen, 2025) set with 3 cameras and the dual charging station, and I’m absolutely thrilled! Setup was super simple — the cameras are wireless, connect quickly to Wi-Fi, and the 2K HDR image quality is impressive, even at night. I love being able to monitor everything from the app, get motion alerts, and even talk through the built-in microphone. Plus, the battery lasts a long time, and the dual charger keeps one always ready to go. Perfect for keeping my home safe without any hassle.Totally recommend this security system — practical, modern, and performs beautifully

The Arlo Pro 3-Camera is fantastic! Easy setup, crystal-clear 2K video, great battery life, and the dual charging station makes it super convenient. Highly recommend!

The camera is a compact and wireless security camera system that’s super simple to set up anywhere, indoors or out. The video quality is sharp, night vision is in full color, and the app lets you check footage, talk through the camera, and set custom alerts right from your phone. Love the dual charging station for convenient battery swaps, but just keep in mind: cloud storage and a few advanced features require a subscription.

A great product for the price! I'm satisfied with them, the camera quality is great, and the batteries last a long time.

It is an excellent product, they are easy to install, the battery lasts a long time, I highly recommend them

I absolutely love my Arlo surveillance cameras! Now the entire area around my house is fully covered, and every movement is detected. I finally feel safe and protected knowing I can check everything anytime. It’s also amazing that I can see what my kids are doing outside, even when I’m not there. The picture quality is great, and the system works perfectly. Definitely worth it!

This set of three security cameras was very easy to set up in my home and was easy to connect to the app. The cameras look nice and sleek picture quality is excellent and I love the sensitivity that I can set for the sensors. Highly recommend this security system for your home security needs

If you’re looking for a balance between high end clarity and “ set it and forget it” maintenance, this kit is hard to beat. Application is super friendly and if you get the subscription, it’s actually affordable.

I began using Arlo security products with the Arlo Pro 2 from 2017 and added two more Arlo Pro 3 cameras when they were released in 2019. Now in 2025, I have added three Arlo Pro 3 6th gen cameras to my home, and I’m quite happy with the hardware and software advancements Arlo have made. These new 6th generation Pro 3 cameras exhibit improved HDR brightness, a more detailed image, and the most noticeable improvement I’ve experienced is the increased signal range. I have a Wi-Fi 7 network, and the Arlo Pro 3’s dual-band Wi-Fi connectivity has resulted in faster connection speed to a camera feed as well as much less latency when activating multiple camera feeds at the same time. Although they share the same name, the Arlo Pro 3 6th-gen from 2025 is noticeably better than the Arlo Pro 3 from 2019 – the battery life is longer, the signal range is superior, and the clarify and color balance of its 2K HDR image looks better. Hardware advancements are definitely nice and expected, but Arlo has also made meaningful software improvements via its Arlo Intelligence system. Although it’s not accurate 100% of the time, Arlo Intelligence offers several useful features such as person recognition (you can select pictures of different people from your gallery and give each a name), vehicle recognition (train the app to remember and recognize certain cars), and even create custom alerts where you train the Arlo AI system to look for specific events or objects (e.g., garage door is being opened, the sprinkler system turned on, birds are on the lawn). Now if you were expecting these cool features to be included with the purchase price of the Arlo security system, then you’ll be solely disappointed as pretty much everything else beyond basic motion detection alerts, two-way audio, and live video feeds are locked behind relatively expensive subscription plans. What used to be $2.99/month for a single camera back in 2017 is now $7.99 in 2025. The Plus plan, which costs $17.99/month, is expensive but may be worth the cost if you own multiple Arlo cameras at your home and you need Cloud storage recordings for multiple areas of your home (e.g., front door, side entrance, backyard, backyard shed). Arlo does offer local storage of recordings but you have to provide your own backup medium such as a portable hard drive or USB flash drive. And unfortunately, accessing the locally saved video files via the Arlo app is slower and not as neatly organized as the saved recordings on the company’s Cloud server (Cloud-saved video feeds show a thumbnail preview but locally saved feeds are blank). So, in spite of the higher cost of entry for the hardware and the relatively high cost of recurring subscription fees, why should anyone choose these Arlo security products over cheaper systems from competitors? You would choose to go with Arlo if you want hardware from an American company who probably protects and values your privacy and data more than competitors that originate from outside the USA, you want an app that is well-organized, responsive, and intuitive to use, and you could benefit from the new AI Cloud features such as person and vehicle recognition, custom audio event detection, and more detailed and informative motion detection alerts (“Trevor is at the front door” instead of “Person detected at front door”). After all these words, what’s my final verdict for the 2025 Arlo Pro 3 (6th-gen)? In terms of hardware, I give it 5 out of 5. For the app and all the fancy motion detection and AI features, I give it 4 out of 5 (due to occasional misdetections and false alerts). In terms of value, it’s hard to answer with a single number. If you only own one or two Arlo cameras, then I’d say that the subscription prices being offered right now are bad value. But if you own four, five, or more Arlo cameras, then the $17.99/month Plus plan no longer feels like such a bad deal as the Plus plan covers an unlimited number of cameras and includes several useful features like person, animal, package, and vehicle detection as well as 60-days of video history. With that said, overall, I give this Arlo Pro 3 6th gen kit a 4-Star verdict.

These Arlo cameras are wonderful. They look so stylish and high-quality. I really like the image they provide, and the mobile app is super easy to use.

Easy to use Quick set up No issues with these camera

We have chosen to completely make the switch to arlo after getting these! They are amazing, I love the quality and how quick they load up to live. Yes you do need a subscription to see motion playback, but that doesn’t bother me. It allows unlimited cameras on the subscription which is way better than other brands. I truly love arlo!

These cameras are the best they very clear and detail of what they’re taking, long distance when they say picture clear definitely picture clear… the only downfall is the fact I have to pay for extended videos

Such a high quality system. Super clear video. Crisp sound

Verdict: Great three-camera package! It includes 3x pro cameras, 4x batteries, a charging doc, and a nice yard sign. With super simple installation and high-quality performance, I think Arlo is getting better and better at delivering nearly plug-and-play video security. I think this is a great package for new users of Arlo as well as existing users. Of note, to get the most from these cameras, you will need to pay a subscription. I hope this review is helpful to guide an informed purchase decision. Background. I am heavily invested in the Arlo ecosystem. We have over twenty total Arlo devices ranging from older Pro cameras, a floodlight, a doorbell with chime, two base stations, essential cameras, pan-tilt cameras, and now these three new Pro (6th Gen) cameras. I also pay annually to access premium services. While I would prefer not to have a subscription, I find the value I receive to be worth the cost: unlimited cameras, unlimited storage on a rolling 60-day basis, protection zones, identification of camera triggers, animated previews (I used this several times a day), automation, etc. First impressions. The package includes a yard sign, 3x cameras, 3x mounts, 4x batteries, and a charging doc for two batteries. It’s a perfect little package for a foundational capability. The yard sign is quite nice actually. I love that the cameras include a spotlight. Setup. The cameras connect through Wi-Fi, so while they don’t have to be plugged in, they do need to remain in good Wi-Fi range to work properly. The quick start guide includes QR codes for setup. If you already have the Arlo app, installation is extremely easy and quick by just pressing the + sign in the Devices section. These cameras do no connect through a base station, which means there is no local storage, and thus no access to recorded videos without paying for a subscription. Installation took me just 15 minutes, with the bulk of that time waiting for each camera to update. For two cameras, I used existing mounts from very old Pro cameras (mounts are compatible), so the physical installation was quick. Subscription model. If you are willing to pay ~$17.99/month indefinitely, you get a powerful system with unlimited cameras, storage (rolling 60 days), and other advance features. Subscription cost for a single camera is ~$7.99/month. It's worth mentioning that prices have gone up significantly over the last year or two, so they probably will continue to go up over time. With an Arlo Secure Plan, you can (1) Access video and event history for a rolling 60 days, (2) Detect a person, package, vehicle or animal, (3) Customize Smart Activity Zones for alerts, (4) create automation or dependencies with other cameras, and more. Without subscription. After the free trial ends, users will still have access to live-streaming, push notification, and two-way audio. However, please note that you will not be able to view recordings… so you will get push notifications but will not be able to view the recorded videos associated with that specific notification. Perhaps, one work around could be to livestream your cameras when you receive a notification, and then use your phone’s native screen recorder to record something important. In the even that you miss the notification, you will not have any video footage of the event. Performance. I am quite happy with my Arlo system, and I absolutely love the new Pro (6th Gen) cameras. Image quality is excellent. Notifications are faster than ever before, and they also have live preview of movements, which is really helpful to quickly assess if a recording is worth viewing. The spotlight is nice for convenience at night and as a deterrent. Integration with other Arlo devices is seamless. In all, the app offers a lot to monitor, download, customize, etc. Live streaming takes about 3-4 seconds to connect. This is actually a significant improvement from older cameras. One of my old base stations now takes about 20 seconds to connect every time I open the app, so I have to wait to see any of the older cameras that are connected through that base station. It will soon be time to retire that base station and cameras, and replace it with Wifi ones. Things I love: - Great value for the price for 3x pro cameras and extras - High-quality video! Best looking feed we’ve ever had - Wider field of view (160 degrees) - Great night-vision video and great video with the spotlight - The spotlight on the camera is convenient at night and acts as a deterrent - Dual-band wifi, with automatic switching - No wiring - I love the swapable batteries; we have some Arlo cameras that don’t do that - USB-C Charging on the cameras for added convenience - Advertised as having better battery life - After the free trial, reasonable subscription prices considering all the features you get - Integrates seamlessly with my other Arlo devices; great for replacing older cameras - It seems like notification are near instantaneous! Nice job - Feeds have much less delay than in older cameras; maybe 3-4 seconds - The app remains a strong point; it works well and ads lot of functionality - Pretty good range; one camera is completely on the other side of the house - These use the same mounts as my older Arlo Pros! I just unscrewed my old cameras and screwed these on… I got a huge upgrade in just 15 minutes! Things I don’t love: - The charging doc power cable should really be USB-C; there are no more reasons for proprietary power cables… That just complicates life - The yard sign is VERY nice, but it’s quite hard to assemble the pieces together. It took some strong wiggling to get the three pieces flush with each other - The charging doc is finicky… I noticed that when I unplugged the doc when a battery was charging, and then plugged it in again, the charger would not work. I had to leave the charger unplugged for a few minutes, and then tried to plug it in again, and then it would work again. I was able to reproduce this a few times… it’s weird - Not a problem for me, but worth noting that these are different swapable batteries (size and grooves) than in my older Arlo Pro cameras (early version) - These cameras are not compatible with the old pro magnetic mounts; these were great for indoor areas and for quickly moving cameras for different requirements - The free tier significantly reduces the value proposition of buying these cameras Overall, I love my Arlo Pro (6th Gen) cameras and my total Arlo system. Personally, I think it’s the most convenient and effective camera system on the market, **if** you are willing to pay for a subscription plan. If you don’t want to have a monthly payment, I would rate the effectiveness and value of this camera bundle at just 3 stars. If you are willing to pay for a subscription, these are hands down 5-Stars.

I've been a user of Arlo security systems for almost 10 years, I got my first system in 2015. I've added and replaced cameras and video doorbells over the years and generally things have worked well, although I did have some legacy issues when Netgear spun off Arlo in 2019 and the new app was launched. Some things just didn't work right and I had to struggle a bit to get my cameras/doorbell working properly with the new app. Since my system was so old I decided its time to upgrade to the new equipment so I recently installed the Arlo Pro 3-Camera Wireless 2K Security Camera system (6th Generation) and I gotta say, what an improvement over my previous system! For starters, setting up the new system could not have been any easier. The new cameras have a different mounting system than my old cameras so of course I had to replace the mounts but that wasn't a big deal at all and I could use some of the old holes I had already drilled. Then on to the cameras, first you must fully charge the camera batteries which brings me to one of the things I love about the new cameras. In the past, my old cameras required four CR123A batteries in each camera. I can't tell you how many times and how much money I spent over the years replacing those batteries. The 6th Gen cameras are powered by lithium-ion batteries, four of which are included in this package (yes 4 even though there's only 3 cameras, having a spare battery is a nice bonus). And the package includes a charging station to charge two of the batteries at a time. So I love no more buying/replacing CR123A batteries. Once the batteries were fully charged setup was as simple as scanning the QR code in the instruction booklet and following the instructions to activate the cameras and update the firmware. This is all done through the Arlo app which I already had on my phone so yeah, it was a breeze. It worked flawlessly and the process was quickly completed. Another big bonus I realized during setup was the elimination of a base station. My previous system required a base station which first had to be setup, physically wired to your wifi router and plugged into an electric receptacle, then you connect the cameras to that. The new 6th Gen system has no base station. The cameras connect directly to your wifi router. So not having a base station freed up a good portion of space on my desk along with all the wiring. My setup is now much cleaner, love that! Operationally, the 2k HDR cameras are excellent. They have 160 degree field of view so with 3 cameras it easily covers our property. One of our cameras is mounted on our detached garage which is over 100 feet from our wifi router but it has no problem connecting to the router (setting up through the app showed the signal to be "stong"). The cameras provide clear images and video in both daytime and nighttime. In night mode, a light on the camera illuminates which turns the night images into color images, not just black and white like my old cameras. Another new feature that my old cameras didn't have is Auto Zoom & Tracking which I found works very well. When I was setting up and testing my cameras, a rabbit that lives under our front porch snuck out behind me and ran off into the woods. I had no idea he was there until I watched the videos and the camera zoomed in on that rabbit. Auto zoom and tracking works! We also had a bear crossing our front porch the other night and the camera zoomed right in on him and tracked him until he went out of view, pretty cool. The app has many features to customize notifications and alerts as well as an emergency response system where you can enter your homeowner info including medical needs, then with one tap the local police, fire or medical help will be contacted. Overall, I gotta say, Arlo has really come a long way. I had quite a few problems over the years with my previous system, but this system couldn't be better in my opinion. I've been using it now for about a week and it has been flawless. Its simple to setup, the cameras are fantastic, the app is easy to use and very customizable, and functionally it has worked perfectly. I highly recommend this system.

Easy set up and very great customer service through the app. You do need to pay for the Arlo Services, but it’s worth it.

This absolutely worth it for the price. If you buy this kit you won’t need anything else to protect your space

These Arlo Pro cameras respond quickly. They have a wide field of vision at a 2k resolution and the app has the majority of functions you would want in a security camera. Once fully installed and set up I have found them to provide good video quality with accurate motion alerts via my mobile notifications. I have them integrated with my Amazon Echo Show and Alexa so even the kids can see who is at the door without having to open it. Best of all Arlo included a battery charging station with a spare battery so you can easy swap out the battery when the charge gets low without losing the use of the camera for an extended period. Overall these cameras are a good choice for anyone wanting to protect their family and property. Pros: - Replaceable batteries so you don’t have to remove the camera to recharge it - 2k resolution with up to 160 degrees field of view - Easily integrates with Amazon Echo Show and Alexa - Motion alerts with 12x zoom and tracking - Spotlight, alarm and 2 way audio - Night vision - Two way audio Cons: - Most features require subscription which is expensive - No local storage of video Video Quality: I am using these cameras to replace some older existing outside HD cameras and there is definitely an improvement in video quality. The cameras have a 160 degree field of view and that wide field does add some curvature around the edges. You can lower the field of view but I didn’t think the curvature was bad enough to offset the extra field of view. These cameras are 2k which gives you detailed images at a consistent playback and alert speed. The 24 frames per second can look jumpy when capturing fast action but it’s still fast enough to follow/track movement without being overly blurry. The night vision is in color if you opt to use the spotlight function otherwise it is in black and white. The color in the night vision is not very pronounced unless there is additional light being supplied beyond the built in spotlight. Setup: The first step is to download the Arlo app and it walks you through the installation and connectivity of the cameras. I have good wireless coverage so I didn’t run into any issues connecting the cameras in their outside locations. You definitely want to make sure you have wireless coverage prior to mounting the camera. The app offers lots of options but you can also use the default settings for a quick set up. The cameras use a swivel type mount which allows you to tilt and rotate the camera which is nice but it can be a pain to lock into position using the plastic wing nut. Luckily because the battery can be replaced without removing the camera this only needs to be done in the initial installation.

To be honest, I’ve always worried about leaving my home unguarded—even when I’m just popping out for groceries. So when the Arlo Pro 3-Camera Wireless 2K Security System showed up at my door, I was equal parts excited and skeptical. Could it really be the home-security game-changer it promises to be? Unboxing: That First Wow Moment There’s something kind of thrilling about ripping open a new gadget box, and Arlo doesn’t disappoint. Inside, you’ll find three sleek cameras, matching mounting arms, a pile of screws and anchors, plus four rechargeable battery packs. The whole setup looks and feels premium—none of that flimsy, “you’ll need to replace this in six months” plastic. Everything is thoughtfully laid out, and you get the sense Arlo wants you up and running right away. What These Cameras Actually Do • Crystal-clear 2K video: I’ve never zoomed in on a security feed and been able to read a license plate so easily. • Night vision that works: Pitch-black nights still give me crisp black-and-white footage—no spooky blurs. • Rechargeable batteries with a dual charging station: Swap out dead packs in seconds and never worry about hunting down AAAs. Battery Life That Finally Makes Sense Arlo claims each battery can last “months,” and in my low-traffic corner of the neighborhood, that feels spot-on. I only needed to top up batteries every 8–10 weeks, which freed me from constant “Did I charge it?” anxiety. Installation: Plug, Stick, Done I’m not exactly Mr. Fix-It, but I had all three cameras mounted and streaming (via Wi-Fi) in under 15 minutes. The mounting arms are flexible enough to angle the camera exactly where you want it, and the instructions are straightforward—even my non-techy partner managed a couple of setups by herself. The App: Your Security Sidekick Downloading the Arlo app felt like unlocking a control room in my pocket. You can: • Tweak motion-detection sensitivity (“Hey, passersby, please be ignored.”) • Set recording schedules (“Only film between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m.”) • Get push notifications or email alerts the moment something’s up Full disclosure: there are a ton of options, and a few of the fancier ones might overwhelm casual users. But if you’re the type who loves fine-tuning every gadget, you’ll eat this up. Internet & Wireless Freedom You do need a stable, decently fast internet connection for glitch-free live view and alerts. On my side, the wireless setup meant I could move a camera from porch to backyard in seconds—no rewiring required. Price vs. Peace of Mind Upfront, it isn’t the cheapest system you’ll find. But when you factor in the solid video quality, rechargeable batteries, easy installation, and a feature-packed app, it starts to feel like a smart investment in sleeping easier. Pros and Cons Pros * Gorgeous 2K footage, day or night * Batteries that really last * Super-simple setup—no electrician needed * Powerful, customizable mobile app * Totally wireless flexibility Cons * Needs a reliable Wi-Fi connection * Higher sticker price than basic stick-up cameras * App’s many settings might intimidate casual users Bottom Line If you’re serious about home security (or you just hate that “what-if” feeling every time you lock the door), the Arlo Pro 3 system delivers. It’s stylish, powerful, and surprisingly easy to live with. In short: peace of mind has never looked—or felt—so good.
