Best cameras on the market!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have had problems with a neighbor dispute for over 2 years now. It’s become a dangerous situation for my whole family so we have been putting outdoor cameras up for security. After multiple different types of cameras, Arlo has finally provided safety and security for my family. It has all the options we want such as a wide range of motion detection, a crystal clear image and sound, and color night vision. The monthly Arlo Secure plan is affordable as well and 100% worth the cost! It provides automatic video recording when motion is detected and saves it to the cloud so you can go back and review it anytime. All in all this has been the best camera system we have tried and I finally feel safe and secure for my family!

I would recommend this to a friendNot that great
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.You can't really see clear at night like it claims. It takes a while to connect, and it is a few seconds behind from the actual footage. Plus because of the app I'm not able to use my phones flashlight or camera. Also I'm not able to switch my camera around on video calls.

I would recommend this to a friendSubscription required and triggered by everything
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Essential in this case means cheap and doesn’t work well. I have two older Arlo cameras that are amazing. This one is horrible. Most notably and not at all clear when you buy it is that you must have a subscription if you want to view recordings in the app unless you use local storage (recording device for hub not included) AND you have to have one of the newest hubs. The camera can be used without a hub, but then it is fairly useless without a subscription. Activity zones included with subscription only simply don’t work. I played with the activity zones for hours and things, not just people continued to trigger the camera outside of the zones. Additionally my shrubs continually set off the camera. Basically anything will trigger this camera, not just people and animals. Don’t waste your money.
