Good Not Great
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Camera quality is pretty fuzzy, and battery life is not as long as I would have hoped (I have to charge my cameras every week). Also the subscription service to access backlogged video and pictures is $11/month after the first three months, so bear that in mind. Other than that, the cameras are decent compared to other brands. Maybe just spend the extra money for the 2k or 4k options, or another higher end security cam if you need really fine detail.

Good value but flawed ecosystem.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Arlo as a system is not perfect. Their AI and recognition systems leave much to be desired. Nevertheless, this is a great camera for the money.

Good buy
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love it. I like it’s two way and I can turn on/ off the spot light when I am ready. The picture is clearer. One down side. It eats up battery life very quickly.

Great Quality!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great little camera. The spotlight isn’t super bright but does just enough to make the picture “colorized” at night. Arlo has really gotten better and better

I wouldn't waste the money
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The store associates raved about Arlo. Bought one and I'm pretty disappointed. I have to turn the camera off unless I'm expecting a package or the battery is dead in a month. Oh, and of course, the battery can't be swapped out and replaced with a fully charged one like in my previous camera? Way to go Arlo! Poor design and execution.....

Great camera with affordable price
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had been debating between Arlo and 2 other cameras. I was so thrilled when the opportunity came to try Arlo essentials spotlight. I am so thrilled that I will get another for backside of home. My current one is facing front entrance and it has a wide view so I can see any motion nearby, delivery person, etc. I had a notice that my food delivery came, I checked camera didn't see anything or anyone. I called and explain my camera isn't agreeing to that so 1/2 hour later they sent another delivery which I could watch on my app. Pictures are clear, you can set sensitive level to alerts. I love that you can set spotlight to come on when it senses motion and you can 2 way speak to anyone nearby. You can also see late at night when it's dark. I like the security of screwing it outside my door instead of being magnetic. I hope it stays for close to 6 months without having to charge it cause I borrowed a ladder. To charge you have to unscrew camera and charge with USB, which is simple enough. That would be the only drawback because while it's charging inside I can't use it outside of course. But as long as it doesn't take all day to recharge it should be fine. Setting up camera was so very simple and they have tons of videos to watch if needed. It snowed this weekend and that didn't affect the camera at all, it worked just as well covered in snow.

Disappointed
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Honestly these cameras suck. They are always losing signal. Really doesn’t record much along with having to buy a membership after three months for them not to really work good. I can walk right past them and they still won’t see me at times. If you’re looking for security cameras these aren’t it.

Do not buy
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Waste of money. It says battery life for 6 months whereas it’s does not last even for 6 hours. I have turned off all the notifications except people on each of these cameras but still battery draining so fast. Complete disappointment with this purchase.
