    I have the Arlo Essentials cameras and decided to add the XL for the extra battery life. Very well satisfied with these cameras and fit my needs perfectly.

    Decent Quality

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

    Video quality and featured are great, but camera is so large it's a little more difficult to mount, and port for AC power is cumbersome to access compared to the Pro2.

    At first couldnt get it to connect but no problem after that. We use it mainly for watching over our back deck for animals and trespassers when we're not home.

    Good camera

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

    The main difference between the arlo essential and essential xl are; 2 different camera mounting positions one at the back of the camera, and one on the bottom. The essential only mounts to the back. The battery increased capacity is said to be what the increased physical camera size is from. I can't say I've noticed a difference in video quality. For only $20 more than the essential camera it seems to have some worthwhile features.
