    Excellent picture quality, even in low light. Overall very happy. Some quirkiness to the software/connectivity, but I've been able to deal with it. One support call, which was handled well.

    The image is great, I like that you can see and control it from your phone. The sensitivity for notifications can sometimes get messed up and confusing but overall good product

    I now have a bunch of Arlo products, and have kept expanding. I have raved about these products over several reviews, and this is how it started for me. Now it just keeps growing...got more cameras, the hub, the doorbell, as well as two indoor cameras. I'm hooked and I love them! Everything works great for me! Can't say enough good things about Arlo products and Best Buy! I HIGHLY recommend!

    Needed something to watch a mysterious hole that showed up in my yard. It was obviously made by and animal but was no where near the edge of my house. Bought this, charged it up, and placed it on a tree next to the burrow. Within in two days I received and animal alert notice and was astonished it picked up on such a small object. I honestly would not have noticed it without the camera.
