    I originally had an arlo pro 2 and upgraded to these. Love these! The quality is better I believe and the alerts come much faster. The light really helps to see what’s going on at night and, I think, would help scare off someone looking to steal. Well worth every penny.

    Good camera, they don’t stay charged for 6 months though. I’d say 6-8 weeks at location near my garage. Longer at other locations that aren’t as active. You can’t hook up to 5G signal, have to hook up to 2.4G. Good picture and easy to use. Easy to set up.

    Camera is fine but requires a subscription for 99% of features. Comes with free trial but you can only have one trial at a time and it only covers one camera, so if using more then one the trial is pretty much worhless. His model also will not support the continuous recording plan, for that you have to get the pro camera so be aware. Camera charge lasts from a few days to almost two weeks depending on activity and settings so high traffic or active areas real should get the solar panel or you will be on a lader so much it wount be worth it. Images are clear enough and nightvision works. That said the "color" night vision just turns on a light an is a normal image. It is NOT covert color nightvision.

    Connects with any Arlo hub. The spot light is excellent especially at night. Quality is decent. Motion on it is spot on. Worth it if you’re planning on just buying an extra camera for outside

    I use this camera to monitor my elderly father. It has been excellent for that. The night vision and zoom work wonderfully. The 2-way audio has been useful for short conversations when I can tell he is confused. Set up wasn’t very difficult, and mounting the camera was a breeze. The charging port and the reset button are very close together, so just be careful you don’t accidentally reset the camera when trying to plug it in. My brother, who lives 4 states away, has also been able to check on our father with this camera.

    Nice wide picture and good quality. The only thing that gives it a 3 star review is the battery. Three days and recharge. Other battery powered that I have last months.
