    Worst Arlo cams ever. They don't hold a charge. Oh, and when they're below 25% charge you need a special adapter. An adapter that's not included.

    Horrible Customer Service

    Product was okay, pretty noticeable lag between detection and alerts. After a few days I returned the Arlo Camera and Doorbell for two reasons: 1) Arlos' Customer Service - 1000% SUCKS. Installing it to WiFi was a bit clunky and could NEVER get a straight answer from Arlo. Again HORRIBLE Service 2) I specifically asked the best-buy associate if this model was Apple HomeKit compatible - but it was not I returned everything.
