Battery life is bad

Posted .Hello Battery,
We thank you for your time in sharing your Arlo Pro 4 experience. We want to mention that although the Arlo Solar Panel is designed to keep your Arlo camera’s battery fully charged, heavy usage of your camera can drain the camera battery faster than the solar panel can recharge it. The 2-watt Arlo Solar Panel is designed to provide year-round trickle charging to keep your Arlo camera battery charged, not to charge your camera battery from low to full.
For tips on how you can extend its battery life, please check the info here : https://kb.arlo.com/291/.

Posted .Hello Checkreviews,
We appreciate your time in writing your feedback about your Arlo Pro 4 camera experience. The battery life of your camera approximately lasts to 6 months with average use. If camera is set to record every motion it gets 24/7 and you stream it live frequently, it might drain its battery life faster than what is expected. For tips on how you can extend it, see info here : https://kb.arlo.com/291.
You may also contact Arlo Support Team : https://www.arlo.com/en-us/support/contact.aspx if you need assistance.

Arlo 3 pack cameras
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Didn't catch everything even when parked in front door. Which makes me unlike it also I have to go live in order to see what's happening it needs to be on at all times not only when there's movement also I couldn't even see car pulling up once it was parked. I need to be seeing everything for safety puppses

Expansive Paper Weight.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Several other cameras on the market that are better quality for much less. My camera never worked properly, and Arlo support was never able to resolve issues. Camera is limited to a range less than 50 feet. Sits in box as a paperweight on my desk as an interesting conversation piece.

Posted .Hi,
Thank you for your review. Arlo Cameras have a maximum line-of-sight range of 300 feet. Please keep in mind that this may be reduced by each wall, ceiling, or other major obstruction between the camera and SmartHub/Router.

disappointed
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not happy with this purchase. Arlo has no customer support. When I tried to chat with someone they ended the chat when they couldn't answer my question. I had Arlo cameras in the past and they were great. the newer cameras require a monthly subscription.

don't waste your money
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These cameras are a real problem, they stop giving, one day you have a problem with the charger you repair it and another day they stop giving an image, it is a real pain in the head, customer service always does not exist, avoid wasting your money, go for another brand!

Great Value
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great so far! The only draw back is that good instructions are not included. It took us forever just to figure out how to open the backs to insert the batteries. Lol. As well, you have to search for the manual online to learn how to use the various modes available.

Arlo Pro 4
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wasn’t able to ever get them to record or go live. I called arlo and they claim it was my internet and so I upgraded my internet. Still didn’t help. I called them back and they couldn’t figure it out. Told me they would have to call me back. So I ended up just returning them and getting my money back.

DO NOT BUY
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was really hoping this camera would be better than the XL Essential, but needless to say.. Its much worse. By the time this camera alerts you that someone has pulled up they're already at the door... Its a major delay in the alerting you.. It takes forever for the camera to load as well... Very disappointed... Definitely not worth the price they charge for these cameras..

Incredibly Bright Light

We can’t believe how incredibly bright it is. We have a lot of land and it lights up the entire backyard. Always let’s us know where the dogs are in the back yard!
