Great cameras
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The range for WiFi is great, the options to set boundaries is easy, the app is easy, the picture quality is great. The battery is good for some medium foot traffic, so far they last me about 3 weeks. Connecting was easy as well. I have nothing bad to say about them.

Don't waste your time on this brand
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have the first generation Arlo at home, it's not perfect but it does the job, then I bought the Arlo Pro 2, it's also not perfect but it does the job. Then to replace 2 Arlo Pro 2 cameras I bought these Arlo essential 2k cameras, when you buy them Arlo gives you a 30-day trial where the camera saves the videos in the cloud which you can see from the application, it tells you if it detects a person or a car, you can call a contact that you program from the camera live. After 30 days the crappy camera does absolutely nothing, you can only see it live when you enter the application, it doesn't take photos, it doesn't record videos, much less detect people. The problem is that when the 30-day trial ends, the opportunity to return it also ends, which is when you realize that you bought a crappy camera, the worst thing is that the current Arlo cameras work with the same system. I have 6 cameras, they expect me to pay $15 per camera per month to be able to activate the functions of a regular security camera. This is not a cheap device, but if you are not willing to pay a ridiculous monthly fee, it is not good for anything more than a paperweight. I bought a $20 camera on Amazon, it has its own server where you can see if it detected a person and it also tracks them since the camera moves, it is 2k, it has night vision, it sends notifications to the cell phone and to Amazon Alexa, it has digital zoom, it saves videos and organizes them by date or type of detection, in short, a $20 camera is much better and really a surveillance camera.

Outdoor vision - Frustrations of this camera
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Regrettably, the cost-effectiveness takes a nosedive post-trial, courtesy of a subscription that leans towards the steep side. Navigating the app proves to be a less-than-pleasant experience, and the frustration escalates with the inability to seamlessly integrate an additional camera into an unlimited plan. Despite a robust internet connection, the camera's live feed seems to take its sweet time loading. Adding to the exasperation is the camera's puzzling inability to detect motion through windows – a baffling limitation, especially when strategically placing it to keep an eye on potential mischief-makers outside. The lone redeeming feature, the commendable quality of the feed, is overshadowed by another headache: a lack of discernment in motion detection. Picture this: notifications flood in for every trivial movement, be it a change in lighting or the gentle sway of curtains. A high-resolution marvel it may be, but the frustration mounts as the camera insists on capturing and alerting for every minute disturbance, rather than just the critical stuff – you know, people and animals. In essence, while the camera flaunts its prowess in resolution, it's akin to having a powerful engine in a car with a host of other critical components missing or malfunctioning. Frustratingly close to being great, but held back by glaring oversights that matter in the grand scheme of things.

Great quality.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I may need to still set mine up because the battery seems to be going down kinda fast. Its been about 3 weeks since ive installed in and its around 25 percent. But my camera also goes off all the time due to dogs running in and out of the house. You can set it up to only record during certain times of the day.

SMALL AND CUTE
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I DON'T KNOW IF THEY ARE GOOD CAMERAS BECAUSE THEY JUST WASN'T THE RIGHT ONES FOR MY HOUSE. THESE ARE WIRELESS, I NEED HARDWIRE. ONE CAMERA WAS INSTALLED IN THE FRONT OF MY HOUSE BUT THE VIEW DIDN'T COVER MY WHOLE FRONT AND THE NOZZLE WAS NOT ADJUSTABLE. ALSO THE BATTERY ONLY LASTED FOR 2 DAYS BEFORE IT DIED. BUT THEY WAS SMALL AND CUTE.
