    the cameras have a pretty decent picture, the charging time of the batteries, and the long lasting life of over a month give me plenty of time to enjoy my life style and provide peace of mind that my home is secure in trying times like these. thank you to these cameras.

    I added Arlo cameras to my home and workshop, the exterior cameras allow me to know, when someone is coming up my drive. I one in my shop allow me to watch jobs that are running on my machine, from inside my home. I'm completely satisfied with the product,

    Like everything about the camera, clear picture, quick response to motion (1 or 2 second delay), adequate spot light at night, everything except the battery life. Mfg. states up to 6 months, I’ve had to recharge after just 3 1/2 weeks! Maybe the cold weather and the fact I was “playing” with the camera for the first week or so had something to do with it. Just recharged today, we’ll see if I can get more than 3 or 4 weeks?

    I love my Arlo cameras. They work great. I can’t get this one to connect to my network, but I have two others connected, so I need to call Arlo. Clear pictures & great sound. Love they are wireless.

    This outdoor camera works great! It’s very user friendly, and easy to set up from the app. The range of motion when you mount it is great. The battery life is also very long so you don’t have to charge it as much as others.

    As good as I could ask for. Video quality is good. Motion detection is great. Only thing I wish it had was a rechargeable/interchangeable battery. My front door camera goes low often but that's because it captures a lot of video. Otherwise, great value.

    Arlo cameras: Video quality is wonderful they're always online with we've not had a malfunction yet the cost to have for yearly is a little pricey but overall. One of the better security systems I've bad and I have had genie and lorex before.
