    I had the nest doorbell camera for about a month and made the switch to Arlo. I just enjoy the arlo software and notifications better than the nest. I already had arlo camera and it just seems to function better than the neat did.

    I use the Arlo system already, so it was real easy to integrate. Only problem was the bracket. The angled one provided wasn't angled enough, and they don't sell any other versions. Had to make something instead, but no biggie.

    This doorbell is ok. It is laggy and hard to talk to people sometimes. I don’t know if it is my network or the device though. I haven’t checked to be sure. Also, the app locks away features that easily should be included to try to force you to buy a subscription. I may try another brand but this does work for now.

    This has been a great purchase. The only thing is that you have to get a subscription to Arlo after a free trial in order to get all the functions to work. Not happy about that.

    I like to device and can pick up anybody who comes to the door. It does pick up vehicles and people walking past my doorway. The dislike with this device is sometimes it does not have a clear quality image. Sometimes I People all the image comes too blurry or blacked out, and I cannot see who the person is at the door.

    nice doorbell with lower cost monthly vs nest

    I replaced a nest doorbell with this one since its $10 a month for unlimited cameras vs a pay per camera with nest. I use this along with the floodlight camera and a few others. Speaker is clear, camera quality is good and it was easy to setup but it can take some time to dial in settings to prevent accidental notifications like someone walking in front of my house vs coming up to the door.

    This is a great camera. I feel a lot safer now seeing who is coming to my door. I love that I can see my door, stairs, mailbox, street, and some of my yard. I wish all cameras were this easy to use.
