Better off buying an empty shell than these
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Can't remember a single tech item I've bought in the last 20 years that has been more disappointing. Fails at the most basic level. At this point, I just view them as fake cameras that serve to deter criminals who don't realize homes with this brand should be targeted for whatever nefarious task they're attempting. Assuming you're thinking of buying an Arlo camera to use it as a functioning camera and not just something to make it look like you have cameras for security then find another brand. I've now had mine for a couple months and they lose their connection to the base station frequently. Worse, when you go to look at a recording from earlier, you discover that one of the cameras hasn't been recording in days. The solution according to numerous discussions with tech support, is to go get the camera and remove it from your system and then reconnect it to the base station. Leaving out how annoying this is, you don't know it wasn't recording until after the fact, so it's basic function is worthless. In live mode, they constantly lose the stream and have to be refreshed so worthless there also. Arlo Pro 2 that I own are totally worthless for "Night Vision". You can stand on a ladder 3 feet from the camera and not recognize yourself at night. Fortunately, people out breaking into cars, etc. late at night aren't the brightest people in the world. With a little research, they would learn to identify the uniques shape of Arlo cameras and realize it was open season on any house that has them. If I was a thief, I'd specifically seek out homes with Arlo cameras to steal from since people who own them, thinking they have some protection, are likely to let their guard down compared to someone who knows they have none. I bought mine on sale so only wasted a couple hundred bucks and will just throw them out rather than foisting them off on some unsuspecting person on Ebay or at Goodwill. Save yourself some aggravation and some money and buy anything but Arlo cameras.

Arlo essential is where it’s at
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Highly recommend an Arlo Essential as it is very convenient to not have to connect the camera to a base and connect it directly to WiFi.

Posted .Hi Poorman,
Thanks for your feedback. We want to mention that the Arlo Essential Spotlight camera comes with an Arlo Smart trial. When the trial expires, you have the option to purchase an Arlo Smart subscription. Subscribing to Arlo Smart does not only give cloud storage but it also lets the cameras utilize the Arlo Smart features listed here : https://kb.arlo.com/000056583/. Without an Arlo Smart subscription, you can still add up to 5 cameras to your Arlo account, live stream, and receive motion and audio notifications.
Feel free to contact Arlo Support Team if you need assistance with your device : https://www.arlo.com/en-us/support/contact.aspx.
