Customer Ratings & Reviews

Mounting it was super easily (once I found a spot that wasn't a dead zone). Setting it up is like any other camera, very easy. The day time video quality is great. The night vision is not as good, but still pretty good; better than my essential spotlight cameras. The light is very impressive.

Overall a pretty good main security camera for the front section of the property, not too overly-sensitive picking up unnecessary stuff and one is able to zone-in and off areas in the camera's FOV to pick-up activities. It's super easy to setup too provided one has the right proper tools. I like how one can essentially customize so many functionalities depending on someone's living area/neighborhood aka if you live in a generally safe area then most "too-obvious-to-notice" functionalities may be turned off or limited such as the super bright floodlight (at its highest, plugged in setting) and setting it not to trigger the siren. A few drawbacks do exist as follow: 1)our camera puts out static and sometimes scratching noise when wi-fi becomes a little spotty (we live in a 2,000 sq ft house where the routers are located up on the 2nd floor) albeit recorded actions thankfully do not pick-up much of the audio distortions; Arlo customer rep said that it happens if wi-fi router is more than 20 or so ft away and/or wi-fi becomes spotty; our router is indeed about maybe 50 ft away and up on the 2nd floor; 2)the camera's design, while futuristic and almost cute cartoon character-like in appearance, proves to be a head-turner for some neighbors which means that any bad guys would probably spot it fairly easily; 3)another is that it randomly goes offline during evening hours for a few minutes, one time it happened only for it to do firmware update. More benefits do exist though beyond the above mentioned drawbacks and it's wise to invest on not-too-expensive surveillance equipment such as Arlo's. I was impressed enough that I got an Arlo Essential Spotlight Cam for our backyard and hooked it up to an Arlo solar panel for continuous hands-free power source. This floodlight camera consumes more power for obvious reasons (floodlight, 2K video, IR mode) and 100% battery lasts for about 5-7 days but it's not a problem for us as I went and bought the Arlo 25 ft mag power cord/charger and faux "hard-wired" the thing for easy charging and power management. Now managing Arlo cameras and viewing clips/streaming live feed is fairly easy and one can do it in the Arlo app which works fine and dandy and easy to understand for both the iOS and Android versions. One can also manage the cameras online using Arlo dashboard on an online computer for those not too keen on using smartphones but this comes with a warning as the Arlo dashboard online streaming function barely works half of the time which makes me feel like streaming is more optimized for mobile devices than on an actual computer. One can use an Arlo home base kit with memory card to instantly save captured moments or one can subscribe monthly to different tiers of Arlo service to manage more functionalities and temporary cloud storage for captured moments for those like me who don't like the hassle of managing a home base and memory cards. Cloud storage stores captured moments for 30 days or so and I can just go back and/or instantly save to my phone and/or computer the very important video clips within the cloud time period before they get deleted. Now people will ask...how is the picture quality? Well, it all depends yet again on the reliability/strength/distance from the wi-fi internet source and the internet traffic in the general area. For the most part, this 2K camera do not output heavily-pixelated images and images look fairly good, better than a 1080p image for sure, but won't be like in action movies where they enhance or de-enhance images down to the last visible atom in an image. For our intent and purposes, having an "eye outside" is good enough to monitor the goings-on and help with identifying persons and things if suspicious things come up. Long-term weather-related performance will be a challenge for me to know right now as we've only had this for a few weeks and also, we live in a 'burb 10 miles from the heart of downtown LA meaning this camera is in SoCal and we hardly if at all get rain over here. So far though, it's gone through the season's super heat waves and worked just fine. To conclude, this floodlight camera comes highly recommended for home-use, maybe also for small businesses on small properties/locations. Good luck on your shopping around for security cameras.

I love this floodlight in my driveway. My neighbors said when they are out at night it lights up nice. My neighbors across the street said the light is not bothering them at all like my other neighbor’s fright flood light that seems to go on and stay on forever. I bought this camera because my nextdoor neighbor had their car stolen. I felt so bad that my smaller cameras didn’t see the whole street. Now I have caught someone at 4: am looking through mailboxes and straight into the camera when the flood light went on at my house. I sent it out to the Nextdoor app and people were so surprised I got such a good picture and they asked about my camera. It’s well worth the cost. I also bought the magnet charger which works great and makes the light even brighter, if that’s what you want.

This Arlo pro 3 Floodlight is extremely clear. Very impressed with the picture quality. You even have the ability to zoom in on your video feed. Packaging was very nice and all the pieces felt very secure during unboxing. I liked how it came with a charging cable and brick. There are very little paper instructions as they direct you to the digital versions on their website or from within the app. There are also helpful install videos. The mounting for camera is very simple. 3 securing screws for the bracket then just twist and lock the camera in. The camera can then be angled in almost any direction you need. The camera has an LED status indicator light which you can actually toggle on or off. The flood light itself is very bright at max. You can then further adjust brightness to your liking from within the app. Other features include recordable audio as well as being able to speak directly through the camera. This will be nice in case you need to communicate with anyone remotely. Wireless setup was very straightforward and I synched the camera to the Arlo app on the first try. Very nice all around package for a security camera.

This new Arlo camera and light combo is incredible. It was easy to install and I bought the solar panel so I don't have to worry about changing or charging the battery. The picture is very clear and you can set it up to zoom in on movement. I have the Arlo Pro 4 camera system and the new camera security light interfaces very nice.

Easy to sync to the Wi-Fi network and easy to configure with the arlo app. I bought a compatible solar panel because I hung it high in a tree. This is the second unit like this I’ve installed and I’m impressed with the wide picture and the quality of the picture.

Best stylist floodlight ever. I have 5 of these around my hose, great 2k video, easy to install and awesome software. works well with Google, Apple system. You can use with own HD connected to the main Bridge , buy separate but it not necessary to have a subscription. Use all the time through WiFi to check on the property and night. Allows to define regions where the alarm will identify people, animals. Great value and sleek design. Installs in 15-20!minutes with the app that guides you through. Works well with power cable or solar panels, have both options where there is no outlet power.

This camera has excellent 2k quality and a surprisingly bright spotlight. It also has amazing battery life. I bought this for surveillance purposes and it paid off immediately. I was wondering why my squirrel-proof bird feeder was emptying so quickly. I mounted this camera, which is the 9th Arlo camera in my collection (5 Pro 2s, 2 Ultras, 1 indoor, and now a floodlight camera) to the side of my deck, and literally caught the culprit on video the very first night. See the picture. I highly recommend this product.

I like how it brightens up the area in front of our gate at night. Just wish we had better internet service here. Picture is clear also.

I bought this to put on a tree next to my driveway and its ridiculously bright. I have an arlo pro 3 and an arlo light already there which were bright but i wanted a wider more brighter solution so i got this. Check out the before and after pictures

I love the camera quality how clear it is and the brightness is just eye blinding

I purchased the Arlo pro with floodlight for my front yard to be able to watch my puppy do his business; the camera and lights alone are insufficient unless you have a small yard. I needed to purchase additional floodlight ( 2 - 350 watt) in order to adequately illuminate my front yard. I also needed to purchase 2 additional Arlo pro cameras to accomplish my goal. It’s important to note that the Arlo pro - Ultra cameras **** night vision*** works better than the Camera with the floodlights. Once I had all 3 cameras up I realized that the best combination is 2 Arlo Pro + high intensity floodlights. It’s also important to note that the zoom is limited especially at night.

I have been using Arlo cameras for years. We decided that we wanted to get a second floodlight for our house. It was super easy to set up with our base station and was easy to install and mount it. I highly recommend. It catches motion, noise, and fully lights up the area that you have it set up at.

I loved how easy it was to installed and get it set up with my other Arlo cameras. It’s easy to set up the zones as well. I love that it can tell me if it’s a vehicle, animal or a person. I definitely recommend the Arlo Pro 3 Floodlight camera.

Happy with my purchase. The Arlo camera work very well. I connected the camera to the Arlo solar panel and works very well. Video recording provides good clarity and sound.

I have 6 cameras and this is my favorite! Works great and lights up the night with great pictures sent to Arlo library.

This Security Cameras are the Best. 10/10 Really useful.

Works great on my phone! Those that gave it low reviews must not be tech savvy and have cheap internet. Very visible at night too

Great floodlight camera. Very pleased. Quality and price point were factors in deciding to purchase

Great site and very bright , we live on the end of the street and spokes my wife when I leave home in the middle of the night!!
