Fast and easy
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wish 8 would have gotten this sooner! Simple and fast hook up. I was concerned about it picking up to much traffic and it’s settings really can be specified to certain areas.

Excellent Video Doorbell
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love our Arlo video doorbell. The TotalTech installation was top notch. Our tech, Brandon did a great job. Our device connected to the Arlo App immediately. I am so happy with my purchase.

Quality picture
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s a little bulky but I like it. Clear video and now comes with HomeKit support for apple. It also lights up red around the buttons when it detects movement. Easy to install.

Great Video Quality, Terrible communication
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It works well solely for monitoring. The two way communication and doorbell functionality is very poor. Sometimes the app will freeze and you can only hear and there is a significant lag in audio. If you just need to watch your front yard, the quality is fantastic. Communication is just terrible

Great for the price
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Was not expecting it to have a image as good as it does. Setup up was easy. It's nice knowing when a package gets there since the delivery people don't always ring the doorbell.

Awesome!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Super awesome product, the only part that was a little hinky was during the setup. You are asked to do the QR code scan to register and it took awhile to catch. Other than that, solid item and use.

My Favorite Video Doorbell
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I replace the Pro version of the major competitor with this Arlo. It’s a definite improvement in picture quality, size of the picture, and response speed. With the Arlo, when someone pushes the doorbell button, my inside doorbell rings immediately (mine is hardwired to my inside doorbell) and I get a call on my phone that I can answer and talk to the individual at the door. You do have the option to have a message read to the caller if you prefer to not talk. I can also turn on the camera and get video after waiting for 10-20 seconds. The Arlo is faster in ringing my inside bell, and the call comes to my phone much faster than I had with Rxxx Pro. The picture quality is sharper, and the field of vision is much taller. Night time vision is also very good. Installation and set up of the Arlo was simpler and faster too. With the Arlo, you basically do the setup through the app before you actually mount the unit outside your home. The App is slick and works well. You will need to charge the battery with a USB charger before you mount it if you are using it wirelessly. I connected mine to my existing doorbell wires so I could still have a local doorbell. The existing wiring will trickle charge the battery in the Arlo during the evening when it’s not being used. There is no need for a larger doorbell transformer as the Arlo only uses the doorbell wiring for charging the battery. The unit is physically taller, but narrow, than the competition but that is due to a pretty large battery inside the doorbell. You can remove and charge the battery inside your home if being used wirelessly. Wirelessly it is a totally self contained unit that could be mounted anywhere outside your home as long as you have a good WiFi signal in that location. The doorbell has a black rear mounting plate, a black glossy front, and white trim around the doorbell itself. There is also an angled mounting plate included. There are no changeable trim kits like the competitor uses. It’s a good looking unit and the actual push button is large and prominent. The app is good. I like the “library” where all the old videos are stored by date and time. It’s easy to maneuver and view. Motion can be classified as people, vehicles, animals, and all other. I just turn on people and vehicles. I have a small area up the sidewalk and in lower view of front of the door active to see motion. This ignores the sidewalk and the street in front of my house. I rarely get unwanted notifications with these settings. The Arlo provides 3 months free of storage for past motion detection and videos before you need to sign up and pay the $3 a month fee if you want to save past videos. There is no local storage of videos. My only complaints would be the occasions when I want to check the front door and the delay becomes 20 or so seconds to connect. Alexa will announce that someone is at the front door when they ring the bell. However, I have been unable to get the video to show on Alexa even when I ask her to show the front door. As with any electronic device there are pros and cons. For the Arlo, I would definitely recommend this device as a great video doorbell with features and performance that most people would enjoy. Installation and set-up is very easy and the performance is excellent.

Nice Wireless Doorbell

Better than nothing.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got this on a sale. It works, dont get me wrong, but the live feed is pretty slow to load, the doorbell “calling” type feature is laggy to the point of being unusable, and is likely effectively useless without a subscription. That being said, it provides more security than nothing and the motion notifications are pretty nice.

Great Video Doorbell for my use
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Quick and easy install. Setup with the app was flawless. Still haven't figured out how to add to the Arlo Hub but works nonetheless. Other reviews have pointed out how it is now as flawless as stated to work with Google Home. It certainly alerts you that someone has pressed the doorbell but you still have to answer from your Arlo App.
