    This is such a great addition to my Arlo system. I’ve enjoying the Arlo system for over 4 years and this is such a great addition I ordered another yesterday to add to my system because it’s a great camera and the price is attractive. Thanks to Arlo for the peace of mind these security items brings to my family at home and while we’re away.

    It works. It’s HomeKit compatible. It does not perform as well as the Ultra siblings with infrared detection. Its night vision is not clear. I had to disable it.

    Got this camera for the front door. By the time the notification comes and the time it takes to see the video, I might as well go to the door.

    The best!

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    All cameras are the best, I would give them five but for the need for subscription. The availability of wireless capability is a great one however the cameras need to be accessible every few months for recharge and charging cables can be expensive. I was able to install them where they can be accessible out a window or near a door.

    This is our second purchase of the Arlo Essential XL! We picked one up for our business and loved it so much we decided to upgrade one of our home cameras as well! The extra battery life is clutch for the areas that get more traffic and/or are more difficult to access!
