Great Cameras to secure your property
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Cameras were super easy to setup and position to the areas that I needed to monitor. Only one drawback is that I had to constantly charge them over a 2 weeks period, as my settings were too aggressive and too sensitive. Once adjusted, the battery was efficient. I eventually purchased the Solar charging panels, so I don't have to constantly worry about taking them down just to charge them up. Since then they have been worry free and very dependable in handling my notifications. I definitely recommend these cameras, but be sure to also get the optional Solar panels as well.

Simple to use and works great.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this to replace a Returned Ring camera, that only lasted 2 minutes then went dead. Has worked great. Doesn’t have near the fishbowl view the Ring camera had, and battery life is great too. A little bulkier and pricier than the Ring, but it is well worth it.

Junk
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Horrible customer support no call in number. The chat is ridiculous. Finally after an entire day got it connected. And my 6 month old battery? That charged all night. Is flashing red 2 days later. Not even kidding. I have a very small box where I want it picking up motion. Less then 20 percent of screen. I have brightness turned way down because i have a spotlight. And it still drained in 2 days. Ridiculous and a waste of money. Camera quality good. But battery is a joke. And no support to help.

Shame on ARLO for decieving update to force subscr
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It was working just fine for 5 months for what I wanted it for until the recent November update which just officially took away the video recording aspect of it of why i bought this to begin with and only uses the pointless motion detection unless you subscribe for $14.99 a month...This is a pathetic dishonorable money grab to force existing owners to subscribe when i never needed too which is why I specifically bought this 1080p version to add another camera to my existing system since 2018 which worked PERFECT for years Arlo you should be ashamed of yourselves for doing this to existing camera owners of 1st and 2nd generation models to be forced to pay for what came intially at no cost.....so buyer beware of the so called "current sale deals" now because unless you pay a monthly subscription its pointless to buy so just buy ring or hardwire a security system which has continuous power then it makes sense to pay the montly subscription because it will justify the cost but not for the wireless system like mine the batteries wouldnt last long enough to enjoy continuous recordings......dont buy!!!

Camera
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like everything about them. But the batteries. They almost force me to buy the solar panels to keep them charged. Guess thats the next purchase. Just gets old getting the ladder out every 4 or 5 days.

Arlo cameras
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not exactly what I thought I was getting. So far I've found that the cheaper cameras that can actually PTZ are better. Batteries die quickly in high traffic areas. Of the three cameras that came in the pack, I put two in areas that are frequently trafficked and I have to recharge the batteries every 2 to 3 days. Of the third one, it's in a less trafficked area and I have only charged the battery on it once so far. It does come with several extra options in the app. And it has a bright light that activates during the evening. It's not a bad choice, but there are definitely better cameras out there and cheaper.

Good camera for the price.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good picture & motion detector in this camera. The battery life holds up pretty good. Waiting for winter to see how the battery charge holds up. My front camera I have to charge about every 2-3 weeks. My back camera just got its first recharge after 6 weeks of use. The back camera doesn't have the activity of the front camera. I did have a little issue paring the cameras, which turned out to be on my part not the camera.

Easy setup, but noticed something
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Camera was easy to setup in our apartment and the video/audio is clear. Can remotely watch live while at home or away at work. Setting up for my girlfriend to also have access was a struggle as the app was not as user friendly as it is for the first setup. Major concern I have is that once cloud storage starts getting low, we noticed the camera was not alerting or saving recordings anymore. What was alarming is that we had no alerts about storage space being low until we cleared all of the recordings for the week and now the machine is active again. If you plan to buy one, make a plan on how much storage you use up daily and how often to clear out old recordings. Living in an apartment complex with kids running around and busy neighbors, we get alerts VERY often and storage space gets eaten up pretty quickly on the basic subscription.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got this 3 pack on special. Would recommend you also get the solar panels to charge them so you take the hassle of having to charge the battery.
