Cameras are great.Install and setup was easy. The new Arlo app that allows you to control the cameras is not really intuitive but I worked my way through it.

Love the product, these have sound which is an extra bonus. Reason I didn’t give this a 5 star is because we are having an issue with one of the cameras glitching which we are trying to figure out. Only other negative I don’t like compared to the ones we purchased years ago is they require a subscription now.

I am happy with the way the cameras work. They are Great cameras and work great. The only problem is that you cant use them without paying for a subscription.

Great use. The set up was very easy. Downfall to them would be having to take them off to charge since they are wireless. I ended up buying the solar panel for them. That was also a easy set up.

They seem to be good cameras. We just updated our earlier model. One of the two cameras wouldnt charge or if it would it would last for maybe 3 days. Arlo has no customer support phone number. Ended up doing the chat for assistance. They sent me a link showing how to reset it. Seemed to work.

Great camera, trial subscription was everything, it will persuade you to subscribe and not lose the luxury. Battery life is not the greatest! Very clear video especially in the daytime.
I would recommend this to a friend

The cameras are great. The reason for 4 stars is due to battery drainage quickly.

Simple to install. Good range of vision and sound. Good and affordable investment that gives me peace of mind in adding a layer of security for my family's safety.

Solid performance from the Arlo brand, after having tried Eufy and Amcrest solutions prior. They are simple to pair and follow the instructions, and work great with any solar panel ive thrown at them. The point I took off is that these do not (at the time of this post) allow you to join Gen 2 to a hub, they only will connect directly to wifi. This is fine but I'd like to expose them to HomeKit like I do my 1st gens. If this isn't a problem for you, or you don't use HomeKit, then just buy them now and thank me later.

The Arlo cameras were a great purchase! The only thing we don’t love is that we have to plug it up to charge so we have to keep an extension chord close by. But overall it is a really good camera set up. We easily have all of the family members logged in on the app. And the set up of the cameras was very simple. The app is easy to use to see old footage and a live view. Overall a really good purchase!
