- IP Camera: true (An Internet Protocol (IP) camera is able to record and display image/video data via the internet, without need for a local recording device.)
- Camera Iris: Fixed (The iris is the opening on a camera that controls how much light reaches its image sensor, which in turn affects image/video clarity. Fixed and manual irises are generally suited for locations with consistent levels of light. Automatic and "P" (precise) irises automatically adjust in response to changing levels of light and are suited for a wider variety of environments. "P" irises feature additional capabilities for improving footage clarity.)
- Image Sensor Type: CMOS (CCD and CMOS are the two main technologies used in image sensors. CCD, the older of the two types, turns analog light signals into digital pixels. This conversion happens without distortion, resulting in high-quality images. Newer CMOS sensors use transistors at each pixel to move electrical charges. CMOS sensors are typically less expensive, but also require more light to create distortion-free images.)
- Infrared Cut Off Filter: true (Often referred to as an IR or heat-absorbing filter, this camera feature is designed to block infrared light during the day to produce optimally lit images, while still allowing for night vision capabilities in low light.)
- Focal Length Control: Fixed focal (Fixed cameras do not allow for adjustments to the focal length, and typically provide a wide angle view. Vari-focal cameras allow manual adjustments, while motorized zoom cameras can be adjusted from either the camera or control center.)

- Rated 4 out of 5 stars
Extremely pleased!!
Cameras show a really clear picture. They were easy to mount. Only downside is battery life. I find myself charging them every 3 weeks or so. Much sooner than I anticipated. The Arlo app is easier to navigate and has more security features than Ring. The night vision camera is both color and black & white. You can zoom in live or in past clipped videos. Long wifi range.

Incredibly good products.
Incredibly good cameras but app is laggy in term of software and hardware issues within Arlo products, server, etc.. and not because of my iPhone 15 Pro Max’s hardware are weak It will be great if my system does not rely on Arlo at all but my base station and cameras are one system disconnected from arlo but connected to my wifi so it is perfectly independent of Arlo. I got 4 cameras for an incredibly good deal!!! I gave four stars so they are forced to keep on improving so struggling customers can have good experiences and enjoy good products!!! Over all I would give their products 5 stars but because the app is laggy in term of devices communicating with each other wirelessly etc.. they are always a few seconds behind. I have ATT Fiber so weak internet connection isn’t the problem. Their products have everything that I was looking for!!! Very easy to set up and install!!!! I love the charger a lot!!! I love how I can take out the batteries and charge them or charge them through wires!!! Also, Arlo needs to make it easy for customers to use third party products with Arlo systems like solar panels etc… I love the anti-theft lock and unlock feature to take out the batteries etc… Very thoughtful products but they can still be improved a lot and in so many areas!

No to Arlo
Where to begin. I had high expectations for this. A security camera that you might be able to see detail from. I currently also use Ring and Blink. Arlo has been the worst experience compared to the other 2,( Ring also has been pretty annoying.. but that is not for this review...) using the app and maintaining the connection. It has been a drag to open the app, just to see, once again, my devices are not connected. As I reconnect them, and randomly it seems, it doesn't even recognize me and makes me log in again. Video quality, nice if you like a daily does of Green Screen - it seems at least once a day I'll get a video of Green, no idea why. They tell you to keep the top 1/6th portion of the recording area not part of the trigger area, so imagine you might want to not get a trigger on something to the left or right - nope, can't have that. Zoom in to the action they say, touchy touchy -cannot do that reliably. Video recognition - according to Arlo a mouse detected is actually a person. The sensitivity adjustment of the camera might as well be removed it's either everything or not much. A car going past the camera on the driveway, actually coming towards the camera, is perfect to catch the taillights of the car passing by the time the camera activates, this with sensitivity at 100. However, now every single time the wind blows a branch or leaves the camera goes on seconds after the event, so pick and choose, no battery life and all motion detected although 2 seconds late, no motion detected, boy, that battery life is great. Ugh. Scrub through the time or reverse sometimes works, or it will just switch to the next video in your list as you try to scroll. Power goes out? You're done, no more recording. I had a massive tree fall feet in front of Arlo and take out my power line in the process, I might have figured it would've recorded the falling part at least, before the power was cut. Nope. The other day, I got a video of nothing that I could see moving that lasted for 5 minutes long. It happened twice. As the set up goes, the 'anti theft mount' that you can just unscrew from the tension base, it's true, you wouldn't likely steal the mount, just the camera. The battery life, short, and don't you dare put the camera where you would only be able to access it with a ladder, you're going to be pulling out that ladder every 10 days or so. I bought the solar charger, Im not convinced Im going to even bother setting it up. Signal strength indicator goes from Strong, poor, ok, weak, strong, no signal in an area that is literally half the distance that Blink is at and connected to perfectly ( and those batteries have lasted for months ). Cost for connection- clearly in comparing the $250 something camera to $80 ish camera- connection isn't that important to Arlo. Subscription service for the recordings, I'm glad as of now that my service is still included, why charge for saving my bushes blowing and green screens.
