Customer Ratings & Reviews

I was intimidated at the idea of installing the video doorbell myself, but the step-by-step instructions were perfect! No issues. Great color video quality. Looking to add more Arlo cameras around the house.

Even though I have several Arlo cameras, I wasn't sold on the new wired Arlo video doorbell. There's lots of competition, so I felt like I needed to shop around --- so I did. But I kept coming back to the Arlo for several reasons: 1) A wide-angle lens that enables you to see more of the area around your front porch; 2) A competitive price; and 3) A good experience with other Arlo products. After much deliberation, I bought it and it's turned out to be a great decision. Installation was a snap. In fact, I think it took me less than 30 minutes. The doorbell looks great at my front door and it works like a charm. The wired Arlo video doorbell turned out to be a great purchase.

Very good video and field of view. Hard wired so it shows a few seconds before motion trigger unlike battery powered cams. Note - use the app for physical installation instructions. The online instructions are not as complete. I had a small issue with the extension wires. The supplied wire nuts are too large to fit between the doorbell and the wall. Might have fit if I had used the angle mount, though. Other than that small issue - easy installation. You have the option of connecting to base station (if you have one) or directly to wifi. Either way, it integrates well with all my other cams (Arlo Q and Pro 3). Recommend use of activity zones to exclude vehicle traffic from motion alerts. Easy to do in the app. A nice feature is the option to have the doorbell call your phone when someone presses the doorbell. You can talk with the person (with a small delay) from anywhere. Nice touch! Happy with purchase - recommended!

The sound quality is really good. The actual doorbell works good and is real time, not nice delay from sound to pressing of the button. The setup was easy but if you don’t work with electricity often I suggest getting help. The Arlo app is easy to use and the video quality is good. Plenty viewing space angles. I like the lit circles around the button to let the visitor know they are being viewed and recorded. There is a delay in using the inscriptions and talking function. It nothing horrible. Overall this is a good doorbell to use.

The wired doorbell was super easy to install. Have an excellent motion detection, distance and night vision to aware us if someone is near our front door, if you can add the wireless camera you will have a excellent protection of your property.

Great audio. Video is clear up close but as far away as the mailbox it is more blurry. There is a slight delay noted when someone rings the bell to when it rings/shows motion detection etc on your phone. Easy to install. Custom service was great. Would recommend.

Fit right into my already existing arlo system. Was hesitant about installing myself but was super simple to install and sync with the homepage. Has great range and picks up slot of motion which can be good or bad. Great quality picture as well. Satisfied with this purchase

This camera works great. The video is sharp and even the night vision mode is excellent. We had it up and running in about half an hour and it wasn’t up a month before we had to use it to run off a “porch pirate.” Exactly what we wanted it for. The app is also very nice. It’s easy to use and allows you to save videos and dial 911 from the app if the need should arise.

This product is cheaper than a ring doorbell but you wouldn’t know it cause it works perfectly. I had problems with the ring doorbell so I returned it and got this one. I have to tell you this one is way better and easier to install and work. I love it and glad I got it. Thanks Arlo for making a great product at a great price.

The quality of this camera is amazing and has been a great purchase since the day I bought it. I found it easy to set up with the app and to control notifications etc. The price point is perfect and works great for home security as well as just knowing who standing at your front door

Pros: - Very good video quality, night vision and sound quality - Easy to install - View is much better than the Nest doorbell and cheaper too! Cons: - Doesn't work with Apple's HomeKit. - Still captures movements outside the defined Activity Zone

This doorbell/camera system worked well until recently. The device went offline and upon trying numerous attempts to re-establish and connection to re add the device, no luck. Arlo support was contacted and bottom line the issue could not resolved. The tech support was not the best and honestly without sounding discriminatory, it would be extremely helpful if the techs could speak understandable English.

Install wasn't the easiest, definitely had to do some troubleshooting, but once that worked itself out, it's been great. Video quality is great, notifications are almost too great (darn cat that walks by ever night at midnight)! Only thing I would like to see, and maybe its an option is, to not send me a notification when I walk in front of it

I was comparing this with Nest Hello and decided to go with Arlo for two reasons. The wide coverage with 1 x 1 aspect ratio and the price. The video quality is great and the sound is loud and clear. It's easy to install. It came with an angled bracket but I wish it was adjustable or came with another one that is more angled.

It was very easy to install. The setup was ok, it kept failing the firmware update. Took a few times to finally apply it. The video quality and motion detection are really good as well.

I have to say that I was little bit skeptical at first but I have to admit that I 100% satisfied with my decision to pick this brand. At first we were torn between the RING system and the Arlo system but in the end I read many reviews and did my homework before I made the decision to pick the Arlo system. Great quality, ease of use with the app and great quality video. The only thing that I would add is that the video quality is only 1080p, so the one issue that I have is that at night the videos will some times become pixelated when it picks up motion. So do not connect it to a wifi network that supports 4K or 5G.

I have other Arlo cameras in my home, so buying an Arlo doorbell was a no brainer. It was easy to install and set up in my current Arlo was easy as well. It comes with a 3 month subscription to Arlo’s service. I’m still in my free 3 months period, so I don’t know what happens after. I hope that I can just add it to my existing base and treat it as another camera. I am not interested in paying a monthly charge to Arlo . The doorbell and camera work great! When the doorbell is pushed it immediately calls your cell phone so you can talk to the person at the door. Movement also shows up in your Arlo clip library. I give it 4 stars instead of 5 only because I’m not interested in paying a monthly subscription to Arlo .

Easy setup and install into existing doorbell/chime wiring. Added to existing Arlo subscription (7 cameras). Would like to see a little more robust mounting options and perhaps a little less bulk, but otherwise a very good unit. 3-month free trial Premier subscription for the doorbell is of no value to existing subscriber/camera setup, should offer something else for existing customers, like a credit kn their existing subscription, an extra month, or ??? Arlo should offer option for private network / home automation integration that does not require cloud services/ IFTTT for control or monitoring. An api that talks to something like Hubitat or Smartthings would be ideal.

Easy to set up with a functional app and works well with my 2 Arlo Q cameras. My only 2 issues are as follows: - Supposed to come with 3 months of a trial subscription. I have no idea how to redeem or start this. There is no explanation anywhere and when I go to the subscription options, it looks like it would just start billing me immediately. - The device doesn't sit/snap in the mounting bracket as securely as I would like. They supply a small pin that is supposed to be required to release it from the bracket and presumably prevent theft, but I can take it out of the bracket just using my hands with ease. Hopefully it won't get stolen. Otherwise, it works as advertised and has decent picture quality.

I waited for this doorbell because I didn't want to buy a Ring or Google Nest one. I am happy with the picture image being longer from top to bottom to see packages. Sometimes, though, the response to get to the doorbell isn't fast enough, and sometimes the video is jumbled. Overall a good video doorbell. I just wished the advanced features didn't require a subscription. This one also plays nicely with virtually all ecosystems (Amazon, Google, SmartThings).
