    This is a nice security camera, the only drawback is the short battery life. It only last about two weeks before it needs to be charged.

    It says the battery full charge will be one year. It’s not true. It takes only one week or so less. It’s not worth. I will return.

    Doesn’t save any of the live view video. Was also difficult to pair on wifi since it doesn’t work on 5g. I ended up returning it and getting the ring much easier to use.

    Love these, we already had Arlo's but wanted to upgrade! The picture is very clear and has very good range of footage. The audio is clear and the sensor for spot light is very bright. So happy with this purchase. Me and my husband were not disappointed. Very easy to set up as well and best part it pairs to your phone so you don't need a hub to set up!
