Meets our needs.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Kind of laggy, and the camera frosts up in the morning. Besides rhat, we do like the cameras ans the ease of install and charging them. We also have rhe pro4 and we wished we would have just gotten two of those instead!

Cost efficient Arlo
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The camera is a great addition for the not so important spot you wanted coverage for anyway. Downside is having to charge the device entirely versus removing the battery.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love my Arlo cameras. I actually have four. It was on sale, so I took advantage of the price; you can't beat it.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat system for the price.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great camera system for the price. So far haven't needed customer service yet. And hoping not to need them from the reviews.
I would recommend this to a friendOk
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's ok. Doesn't pick up motion very far out - using on backyard. Seems to activate pretty frequently when there's nothing showing on the camera.

Good cameras, terrible app performance
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The cameras are good- nice picture, good zoom ability, nice strong light. However the app is a freaking mess! Half of the time it doesn't work and half the time it does work you have to close it and log in 2-3 times. I pay for the Arlo storage but cannot access it about 60% of the time. What is the point of having it if I can't see events!?!?!? I will keep them since we have had them and the Arlo doorbell for a while. If I had to do it again I would definitely go with someone else though.

Easy to set up.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The cameras were easy to set up. And they can sit most anywhere as well as attaching them. There is a lag in the motion detection. The picture quality is good. Pixelates some. The app is easy to navigate.
