    I love my Arlo Essential Spotlight Cameras the video quality is great, along with the playback video. I had the Arlo 2 and 3 security camera, but it required a hub to connect to the cameras and didn't light on them. I love how the Essential Spotlight camera has a light on it and can connect straight to your wifi. You can speak through the two-way mic, and the battery life is longer.

    Very easy to install and operate, but one of my unit's battery life is always low despite how long I charge the unit. This is the reason I gave it 3 stars versus 5.
