Customer Ratings & Reviews

Just an overall awful experience from the start. I had high hopes for Arlo, I really did. The camera itself is laughably large. Both my wife and I had a chuckle once we took it out of the box. The thing is huge! Installation was straight forward but then then the comically huge size of this thing showed even more weakness. Wind. Live in an area were winds are common? This camera lightly bounces up and down, side to side when it’s windy. The mic does an okay job at blocking out the sound wind causes but the video footage was ever so slightly bouncy. Not good. I could forgive that, I guess, but what made it worse was the recording was constantly missing events either before or after by critical seconds. Setting up a designated minimum time record did nothing. The app settings would show my desired settings but the camera defaults to recording 10-12 second videos, missing what I would need/want. Looking into the Arlo forums, I found a treasure trove of people who had the same problems and had been going on for years. Years! With no fix by Arlo. And the final straw was that we considered signing up the cameras for 24/7 recording access and once we saw the cost compared to Nest, we immediately took down the camera and returned it for a refund. Do not bother with Arlo. It’s just not worth it.

Works great! Lights up my backyard when the critters come to visit.

Good product. Reliable so far, even in rain, but have not had it long.

The battery get low fast. You need backup battery and good wifi and internet service or it will get offline without filming clips.

Good wide view camera. Hard to get a smaller view so it goes off a lit

Works great. Great and clear recording. Would recommend to anyone

Perfect! Sleek, elegant, and wireless. I am picky, and all of Arlo's equipment match my style.

Easy setup. Great range of view. Paired with ring cameras for better clarity.

Great product very happy with my purchase the Arlo has given my family peace of mind 24/7 365

i did need that it has stopped people from coming and taking things when i was not home

Does a great job lighting up the entire patio with any motion. Easy to install with my existing Arlo unit.

Had to return. The Ring camera has just as good of quality camera so I am sticking with Ring. Battery died way too fast

Works well though brightness control doesn't work.

Could make speaker sound clear and louder other than that it’s good

Bought this as a gift for my son in law . He has other arlo cameras so I’m sure this will work .

Great product. Helps us feel secure. Very sensitive to movement. We use the solar light.

It took some time for the camera to detect my base station, but setup was easy otherwise. My primary issue with the camera is the requirement of their subscription plan to record when triggered, even with local recording. If you do not want to be stuck paying for an expensive subscription plan, I recommend you look for other solutions. Also please note, unlike a regular floodlight, the automatic light duration is only as long as its recording setting (default is something like 5s). It does not remain on while there is still motion. I've gotten around this by setting it to the max recording length of 2 mins (even though there's no recording). This is overall a poor design and user experience.

This camera is very professional and sleek looking as well. Great compliment to the Arlo system

Video quality when floodlight is worse than my Arlo Pro which is 720p, but when light is off the quality is better than the Pro.
