Spectacular Wireless Security Camera
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Spectacular Wireless Security Cameras and easy configuring
I would recommend this to a friend It's good, but..
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works fine, cost better than some. The only issue, by the time the camera starts the delivery person has turned there back to leave. If someone was coming to take a package, you would capture there backside. I've had this issue with other camera setups as well. Motion detected and camera start should be simultaneous, instead of making the round trip to the router and back to the camera.

Good camera
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good camera easy to install I'm pleased with my purchase
I would recommend this to a friend False Advertizing
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The reason I purchased these was the promise of the cameras being stand alone and not needing to join the Arlo monitoring program. Well this isn’t true. Arlo grants you 30 days free, but afterwards, in order to enjoy the advertised features, you must pay a monthly subscription.

Great little cameras
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am in love with them. They give clear pictures of every little thing weather it's live streaming or taking a picture of motion detected. The only thing that brings me down is that you are unable to replace a battery like some of the other arlos. I would have to take it down and charge it and then set it up again.

Good picture, but ...
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's battery powered hence no need to run wire. The picture quality is a lot better than Blink, especially the night vision. However, camera does go offline from time to time without any resaon. It has to be power cycled to get it online again. I'd not recommend it for that reason.
