Smaller form factor without sacrificing specs.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was a needed purchase to replace my last Gen 1 Arlo security camera in my set. I love the smaller form factor as well, in comparison to the original Essential series.

Decent entry level securitycam
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice inexpensive security cam. Motion detection settings are a little fussy as it too easily picks up trees moving in the wind, Would be better if it had cheaper, more accessible storage features without a subscription.

Terrible Arlo customer service.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.You should buy an Arlo product only if you want to experience the worst customer service you will ever experience. Their cameras have very little functionality unless a service plan is purchased from Arlo and they will raise the price after the first year. It is impossible to easily cancel a plan once you have it.

A Good Essential Camera
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Summary ------- A simple wireless camera, does its thing. Records motion But will require you to get subscription at 2.99 a month if you want to relook at the recordings. else you only get the notifications For the price, if you can get the subscription, then it is a worthy buy, just because it is reliable. Pros ---- 1. You dont need a hub 2. Can add more cameras to your armor 3. Easy to install and use. 4. Cheap 5. Weatherproof. Cons ---- 1. Requires a subscribtion at 2.99 per camera or 9.99 for all cameras Details -------- You just setup using the arlo app on your phone. The instructions are pretthy straight forward, you will need 2.4 band on your wifi. Just download the app, add the camera, setup wifi, all this after charging and then hook it up wherever you need to do it. The App is good, shows your battery life, turn off and on LED light, configure E911 setting and change subscriptions. The great part is that the app is stable and gives you good notifiations on the cellphone with vehicle and human detection. The night vision is great if you have some light , there will be color at night. Otherwise , it is black and white. Overall i think this is a great camera for the price and you can expand the cameras easily without having to go through with a hub.
I would recommend this to a friend - Cons mentioned:Software

Bean Counters Rule
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have another Arlo device that heretofore warned me of someone in my home. New outdoor camera and new software must have been designed by the Bean Counters One must now pay for the basics! How about cultivating a little loyalty?

No Local Storage Option
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The description shows a local storage option with an SD card. This is false. There is no option. You buy this camera then pay them a minimum of $96 annually for the camera to record. This is deceptive and a waste of time. If they had an SD card on teh camera it would be prefect. Instead they lied about it to get me to buy it. Now they get a 1 star review.

Posted .Hello watrhous,
Thank you for your review. Arlo cameras can use local storage. Arlo offers the option to store video recordings locally through the Arlo SmartHub or Base Station (sold separately). For more details on local storage, see this article: https://kb.arlo.com/000062818.
