    This is not an easy camera to work with at all.

    This is not an easy camera to work with at all. The lapse in time is way too long. When setting up the camera to see if it’s saying everything you want it to… It took way too long for the camera to focus in. Putting the camera back in its base is excruciating. You have to put it in just right for it to click in. And the battery level goes down way too fast. Much more work than I would care to have free camera

    We are very pleased with the performance of this floodlight. It may be tricky for a novice to pick up instantly, however, since we added the floodlight into our existing Arlo Pro 2 system, the integration went smoothly. Would recommend.

    These security cameras were literally the easiest to install and to monitor. My husband and I are so happy with these. I love that it can tell the difference between animals and people and tells us that.

    Provides great peace of mind with excellent coverage of my entire backyard. It had been particularly exciting to see how active our yard is at night. It seems to be the gathering place for neighborhood animals.

    Initially was impressed but then during everyday use not so much. They look great and practicality of installation was impressive. But im dissatisfied because at times you loose connection easily...battery does not last nearly as long as indicated also response time to get live video and turn off/on light on app is too long...greater video depth would also help.

    With the recent increase in catalytic converters I needed extra coverage in my front yard. This does a great job. And the added floodlight when triggered lets people think "somebody is watching."

    Battery DOA

    Battery dead on arrival. Spent the whole day trying to get this to connect to the app. Checked internet speed, performed soft and hard resets and restarts on iPhone and reset router back to factory condition, contacted support to be told to perform it all over again. Support then advised me to charge battery, did that for 3 1/2 hours and battery was dead again next morning without an app ever connecting to it. Appears that these Arlo batteries deplete themselves of charge after years of sitting on shelves. Will be returning the floodlight with the 3 pack essential cameras arriving today due to the battery experience.

      Thank you for sharing your feedback. The Arlo Pro 3 camera batteries last approximately 3–6 months with average use. Average use assumes that you are using Optimized or Best Battery Life video settings and that your cameras record for approximately five minutes per day.

      Increasing the length or quantity of video recordings in your camera's modes and rules decreases your battery life.

      The following environmental factors also reduce battery life:
      Temperatures below 32°F (0°C)
      Low-light environments that require infrared sensors to work harder
      Weak connection to the base station caused by distance, WiFi interference, or solid obstructions between camera and base station

      If you need any assistance, please feel free to reach out to our support team by visiting: https://www.arlo.com/en-US/support/

      Regards,
      ^KN arlo_us

    This is an great addition to my Arlo system already in place. I really like the fact that you can adjust the light intensity which helps the battery last longer.

    Great camera, bright security light, siren is a little weak. Overall happy with the product. I bought two to add to my system and so far the less than loud siren is the only complaint.

    Don’t consider other options. This is the one. Cohesively works with other Arlo products. This is a great addition to your current system or a great first purchase for your Arlo system.
