    Great camera and you can use existing wired chime. Unfortunately it requires an Arlo subscription to get any real use out of it and is difficult to pair with HomeKit

    We have loved having this Arlo doorbell. It is another great piece of mind to have around the house to go with our cameras. I love being able to talk through it, if someone is at our door and we aren't home. It also detects if a package is left at the door, a person, animal or vehicle too.

    We purchased the wired ARLO doorbell after reading many reviews. Picture quality is great but the voice quality is not. It is garbled at times. I do like how it works with our Alexa Echo.

    It took 3 to finally get it right. Mount is made of plastic and wouldn't snap into place on 1st one. 2nd one installed with no problem but the colors on the picture were all washed out. 3rd one worked fine

    The picture quality is not as good as my Arlo 3 security cameras but still pretty good. The night vision works better with the porch light on as there is no spotlight like the Arlo 3. This doorbell camera comes with an optional angled mount.

    First the good: Picture quality is fabulous, especially coming off a first gen Ring. Sound is very clear as well Viewing range and responsiveness very good Now the not as good: Took a few tries to connect a ring comes though to phone as a call no way to make distinctive alerts (I have 5 total arlo devices) notifications are not consistent (though they always appear in my history)

    his is my first doorbell and so far it’s been great! The installation process was super simple. It took all but 15 minutes to complete the process. The app works great and the video quality is super. Instantly became a fan and I order 2 security cameras for my home. Thanks Arlo for making good quality products.
