    First time I got a security system. Happy to have this but it has problems running 4k on more than one camera due to bandwidth on your wifi. Also after one week having inconsistency with motion detection. With out moving camera for a week sometimes it starts recording when someone parks in our driveway and sometimes doesn't detect motion until they are almost at our door. Read more details about this product before you buy. Love their app though and the functions you can do with the cameras which is great but wish i knew it had problems with 4k on more than one camera before I spent all the extra money for 4k. Oh and you have to buy the Elite cloud program to store in 4k which isn't bad at 15 bucks a month.

    Great wireless security camera system!

    So, unless you built your house and had it pre-wired for security camera system, you probably don't want to go through the hassle of running wires around, especially if you want to put a camera where it isn't easy to get the wires to. Thank goodness there are truly wireless security camera systems out there! We had been looking for a few years at getting wireless security cameras to complement our video doorbell (which doesn't really have a large enough viewing area because of where we had to mount it), but none out there had the features that made the price worth it or just didn't look too bulky. The Arlo Pro 3 system seems to have the right balance of features and design for the price. The biggest key is having a rechargeable battery to go with being wireless. Depending on your settings, the batteries will last up to 6 months. To recharge, the charging cable has a magnetic pad that connects to the bottom of the camera, then a USB plug on the other end to plug into the provided charging adapter, or you could even possibly use a power bank (if you want to leave the camera in place have a place to set the power bank). Full charging takes about 3.5 hours. Getting everything set up was fairly easy. Once I downloaded the app and got the account set up, it didn't take much longer to connect to the SmartHub (which is a slimmer, more uniform design from previous models), then sync the included cameras. Installing the cameras were easy as well. The 2-camera version comes with on magnetic mount (with a single installation screw, where you slide-on the mount) and one fixed mount (with 3 installation screws). For monitoring, you can turn different motion detection types on or off (People, Vehicles, Animals, All Other Motion), change the sensitivity of the motion (amount of activity needed to trigger a motion alert). You can also set up a schedule for when to be "armed" to send run detection and send notifications (or you can set to be armed all the time). You can also trigger notification alerts based on sound. There is also a new Package Detection feature (which was still in beta testing as of this time). I was hoping it would detect the package on one of our deliveries, but the shape (very long, thinner package) probably didn't quite meet the detection requirements. We'll keep trying. The video quality is quite good. Being 2K (Quad-HD, or 2560x1440 resolution), the image has a bit more detail than Full HD (1920x1080) cameras. During the day, everything looks really good. For me, the main issue is at night. When viewing on the phone app, the middle is really dark, and cannot really see anything unless the screen brightness is turned all the way up. We do have front lights that are on all night, lighting up the edges of the viewing area, which may be causing an issue with the night vision. But, when the spotlight is turned on, it will switch to color, and then shows quite nicely. Also, when viewing live, there is 2-way audio, so you can talk to whoever is there. Or, if necessary, you can turn on the built-in siren to (hopefully) scare away an intruder (or to freak out your kids :). I do like being able to zoom in using the app when watching the video. There is also a feature you can turn on that will zoom and pan to follow a person during People Detection even (the panning is a little choppy, but still effective). If desired, you will have a choice of Arlo Smart packages to sign up for after a 3-month trial (starting at $2.99/mo. per camera), with each level adding more features available. There is also a Continuous Video Recording (CVR) package that is $19.99/mo. per camera. You also have an option to connect a USB storage device (flash drive or external HDD/SSD) to the SmartHub to keep your detection-initiated events, but you will need to connect the device to a computer to view (no remote access). All-in-all, we're impressed with this system so far and are glad to have the extra piece of mind it gives.

    We charged the batteries when we brought the cameras home and before hanging them up. After 1.5 weeks, 2 of the batteries that are supposed to last 6 months, were dead already. So we returned them.

    I have been using Arlo for years. When we bought a new house we upgraded our Arlo system to the Pro 3 with solar panels for our outdoor cameras and paired them with the Arlo door bell! An easy way to make our family feel safe and let us help the neighbors find there cat.... yes..... the cat loves our shrubs!
