    The cameras are really good quality with relation to audio and video. However, the battery life not so much. Otherwise we are very happy with this purchase.

    When I got the cameras, one wouldn’t work nor kept a charge. I was very upset about that. Other than that, the cameras are great. Good picture and sound.

    Excellent value. I'm 32 and mounting snd set up was mostly trouble free. The only issue I had was connecting one camera. I feel a generation ahead of me would have been frustrated with this product however I worked the kink out myself with patience. I love checking on my home from literally anywhere. No wifi required. This product far exceeds is retail value in peace of mind

    Installed this camera on our screened in back porch the same day we installed the Arlo video doorbell. Set up was a bit more involved. It was a bit hard to get the camera angle correct. The way you have to make the adjustments is not easy. Adding this camera to our app account was a little confusing at first, but it kind if figured it out on its own. It works well, and the built-in light is a big plus. Now I have to learn to turn the notification off on my phone when we let our cats out onto the porch!
