    We were looking to buy a security camera to install at our back door to know when packages arrive. We looked at all the styles and brands and decided on this little guy. Product was easy to setup, install and is working beautifully. I love all the features that Arlo offers and preforms excellent during the day and night. App is easy to use, setups on on wi-fi without any problems. We are planning on adding more cameras around our house. Excellent product for the price, glad we purchased this camera.

    Excellent camera. The sound is loud and clear. The spotlight is excellent, it comes on as soon as a person is detected. Too bad I have to pay a subscription to keep all the features it comes with running. I use it in a certain area where it will be useful and doesn't need those features (cloud storage and setting boundaries for the camera). It does work with a base for storage though.

    Good quality camera once you can find all of the instructions and figure out the different options available for use. It requires a little experience of how the cameras work which you can get from other users but I think that sharp detailed instructions should be included with the product instead of having to search for them online. Considering these cameras require no wiring and the battery is supposed to last one year they are a very good camera.
