    They're lying about the battery life

    I bought this in part because of the claim of 6-month battery life. I got a 10%-battery notification 27 days after buying it (and, yes, I did charge it to full the day I got it). 27 days to drop by 90% suggests 30 days for 100%. I know it depends on usage; but this is ludicrous.

    This is a great camera. I added this to my system as a replacement for an older 1st generation Arlo. It was fast and easy to swap the camera into the system.

    Equipment didn't work properly and the ARLO customer service was AWFUL. They wanted me to buy a service plan in order to make the 3rd camera work.

    The 3rd camera would not update or connect so it's useless. I purchased TWO of these systems and BOTH done the exact same thing. And Arlo customer service will email you back days later instead of talking to someone now; which is ridiculous.

    Worthless battery. Even at the lowest settings, the battery only lasts 3-4 days. Arlo claims you can get 6 months of battery life on one charge. DO NOT BUY.

    I purchased the Pro 4 camera system at Best Buy. It was the wrong system for me. I had intended on purchasing the Pro 3 system. This system has a hub & I can record video w/o using the Cloud. I returned the unopened box & exchanged it for a Pro 3. It works like I had intended for it to work. The guy at Best Buy was extremely helpful.

    Great video quality and connection is stable. It's a bit over priced but I can't fault the quality. So far it's great purchase, I plan to add a few more in the future.

    Camera quality is great. Especially recording at night. I’m wish the microphone was a little louder but overall, it’s a solid choice. Saving up for the floodlight.

    Good cameras - Know what's in the box

    I bought these cameras to go with the three I already had. They are good cameras and the app is easy to use. Couple of pointers 1. Know what's in the box - Mine came with one indoor/outdoor mount and one indoor mount. Since I was mounting both cameras outside, I had to buy another outdoor mount. 2. When using the Arlo app on a cell phone to activate the camera it works best if your phone is not is some kind of case like an Otter Box. The OCR code scans better that way.

    Unless you are a WiFi genius and can take your 5Ghrtz down to 2.5 Ghrtz you can forget about buying this product. You will have problems with connection and lag delay. It is not worth the hassle and the money.
