Cash Grab Subscription Service
Peter Posted
I didn't find out until after purchasing and gifting them to someone that they removed the free limited cloud storage on the app and put it behind a subscription service. I've been using Arlo since 2016 (the Pro Gen 1) and those cameras still provide recorded video footage to the app for free. Though limited in how much it can store it's always been more than enough. I will be returning these new ones and buying from another company because that's the most desirable feature and they're aware of it which is why it's now locked behind a subscription service. If cloud storage is too expensive then offer a base station with SD card to store and access locally/via app. I know other products that do this and will be switching to them.

Hello Peter,
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 information on local storage, refer to this article: https://kb.arlo.com/000062818.
Best regards,

I already have the arlo pro 2 setup and have not installed these yet. I am hoping the performance gets better without using the hub.

Clear Camera but you still need to charge
Eiramrom Posted
The only bad thing on this is that the battery only last for a week before charging. Other than that, great camera.

They are good, the only thing is that you can't lower more than I would like in different angles

Cannot connect with our current Arlo base. It has been complicated and unclear how to pair and manage settings.

Arlo Cabreras are plug and play and work great! These are even better then prior ones I own. No hub is needed for them to work.

Subscription is required
STEVENL Posted
These cameras are decent, but you need a subscription after the free trial to do any recording. Otherwise, they're useless unless you just want to see what is going on outside.

It requires a paid membership after a month of use, I don’t like it, so it’s already expensive enough

Hello
No, Arlo cameras do not require a subscription to access basic features such as live streaming and motion or audio notifications. However, subscribing unlocks additional features, including 60-day Video History, Advanced Object Detection, Activity Zones, 24/7 Emergency Response, and more.
Best Regards,
Arlo Team
