I would recommend this to a friend Arlo spotlight
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this essential spotlight to add to my existing four Arlo pro three cameras . I’m impressed with the camera operations and the smart Arlo function that will tell you whether it’s animal, person or vehicle. I like that it gives you notifications and so many different aspects and bells and whistle’s. I would recommend this to a friend.

Ok, but does not stay connected
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Although the picture is good, I have connectivity problems with is camera. It was okay initially, but after 3 months, it is offline or unable to connect 1/3 of the time. I have removed and added it twice, but that only helps for a few days. My Arlo Pro 2 cameras are much more reliable.

Money pit, best to sign up with a home security co
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Cameras are very good, connection to iPhone is perfect. Battery life is perfect. But these are not compatible with other Arlo home bases. (as with my current home base) You must sign up for their monitoring monthly plans are “YOU WILL LOSE HALF THE CAMERAS FUNCTIONS” which makes them a joke. Or you must buy the base station that is compatible for hundreds of dollars. So Arlo gets you one way or another. I wish I could return them, DO NOT BUY! They are a money pit. NO I DO NOT RECOMMEND THESE CAMERAS!
