    Arlo essentials is pretty good. We have the ultra and this addition works pretty good with it, the only difference is this one u need screws to attach to the wall the ultra has the magic ones that don’t need screws and a magnet in them that hold the camera in place. Over all pretty good.

    So far so good, we’re exited to have welcomed another product of Arlo’s into our space. It clear, confident and pretty accurate with the capturing. Only issues is a few seconds and delaying and frame gets stuck and freezes otherwise I’m pretty happy wit hit

    I love Arlo camera. This is my second camera and this one came without a base station which is waaaay easier to start using. The spotlight feature is also really good. With the Arlo app, you’re all set and it’s very easy to use. I like how it tells you whether it is capturing an animal, vehicle or a person.

    Nice Camera System for the Money. Had the Pro 2 series for a few years but these have a much better low light and longer battery life than the old system. Quick App install and easy to adjust features inside the program. Definitely Recommend.

    Batteries don’t last. The older version’s battery last far more than these. Good quality video but the battery life is awful. Also, we have to pay to have the recordings saved. That is new to us because our older version cameras are still up and running at our shop and we’ve never had to pay extra to actually record and save the clips.

    First, the camera was very easy to set up following the app site instructions. I had no trouble connecting to my internet. The camera captures clear video and notifies me when it captures people. There is a few seconds delay which is fine. Its set for people but also picks up animals but doesn't notify you unless you want it to.

    Too short life battery. The ones with XL batteries are far better.
