I got 12 on my house and the work really good everyday

Amazing! Would recommend to anyone needing a good system.

Nice to know what is happening when we are gone or asleep. L

**OVERALL** The Arlo Pro 6th gen camera system is a compact, wireless outdoor, user-friendly security system offering high-quality video that's quick and easy to set up at an affordable cost. That being said, I'm typically not a fan of these systems, but for the purpose of this review, we'll scrap all that for an unbiased look at these. For those unaware, these systems are cloud first subscription service with limited functionality without a subscription. These units offer no local functionality other than a live view. On the surface, these units have a good build quality and a versatile, sturdy mounting system. One of the key benefits of the Arlo system is the scalability, allowing you to add multiple cameras to monitor multiple properties/locations with minimum effort. It's worth noting that each location requires a plan. However, it isn't clear if adding a camera to the same "Home" location using a different SSID to place at a different location would prompt a forced plan purchase, it could possibly violate TOS. The system offers unlimited cloud storage through a subscription which can cover a single or unlimited devices. A single device plan runs 9.99/mo and for unlimited devices, there's 2, plus and premium for 19.99/mo and 29.99/mo. The difference between them being that one includes more home benefits such as insurance discounts and professional monitoring. The included, rechargeable battery pack, has a great battery life using default values. Something to note, while the premium plan is rather steep when compared to other cloud systems, it's my belief they do this as it's an undisclosed full property security system, there's just more legal red tape to make that claim. That's because the camera's can function as a fire detector listening for the screeching of your homes carbon monoxide sensors. Loud noises such as gunshots or windows breaking, and doors being opened. If any of these trigger an alert, the system can alert you or family members. Manual activation of emergency services is required if you are in need of that. Lastly, I don't appreciate the fact that these units automatically start a trial for you when you register the camera. I would have preferred to have no plan to contrast against what having a plan is like. Not having to wait 30 days for the trial to end to compare or using the chart showing what's included in the trial to make an assumption on the perks I get with a plan. It's just much easier to compare when you can use each option. **Pros:** * Quick and easy setup * Scalable system for monitoring everything * Convenient cloud storage solution through Arlo subscription * long battery life * low-key full property security system **Cons:** * can be expensive when compared to other subscription based cameras * Limited functionality without subscription * Trial starts automatically **FEATURES** To access most of the features of the Arlo Pro 6th gen system, you'll need to purchase a subscription plan. The Plus subscription plan costs $19.99/mo for unlimited devices or $29.99/mo for unlimited devices and a few extra features. At $9.99/mo you get basic and a 1 device plan. With a sub, the cameras offer motion detection, person detection, vehicle detection, package detection, and fire detection. It becomes very granular even allowing for a person's detection such as a family member. It does prompt that you should get consent from the individual and that certain laws could apply based on your region. Without a sub, I assume, you only get motion detection notifications with no extra details or recordings. Motion detection triggers various events with plenty of information to discern details about what might be going on. From messages such as "person walking with phone", "person with package", "person nearing door", and "person opens door". If a person can handle/hold it, I'm sure the descriptor will add it into the alert message. Night vision is superb, it can illuminate my yard with the longest section being roughly 20', which makes very clear that a shadow would be lurking in the dark. Overall, the Arlo security system is easy to use and convenient, making it a great option for those looking for a simple and effective home security solution. Motion detection is superb giving you very detailed actions triggering an alert. Possibly one of the best I've seen so far. However, be aware that without an active sub your camera system would be practically useless. Additionally, this seems to be on the pricier side when compared to similar systems. This is worth 4-stars.

Great camera, great price. Added easily to my existing system.

So many products in one bundle, such a great value

Great cameras but the app keeps crashing and it’s past the return time. $170 down the drain. Arlo can’t help. Been chatting with them all day. They told me to log in on my computer. That helps. I leave and want to see who is at my door when I’m gone but I can’t because I’m not o. My computer in my home. Stupid and useless. Thanks Ai.

When purchased, I specifically asked if a subscription was needed and I was told no. Close to the end of 1 month of purchase, I started receiving emails stating that my trial period would soon end and they were soliciting that I purchase a plan. I did not purchase a plan, and now all I get is notification on my phone about movement. There is no thumbnail, no feed, nothing that identifies what the camera(s) picked up. Who would think that after being told that a subscription was not required, that you only receive notice about movement. I will be returning the cameras and will go back to Eufy.

You have to buy the monthly subscription to really use the cameras. Don’t buy if you don’t get the monthly subscription

Not so great not even with the subscription, does not have wide range

You buy the cameras. You set up these camera's. You need internet and wifi to run said cameras. At no point did it state on the box that the cameras you just purchased and installed that you were also going to need a membership to run them. I would of went with a security company to come and put them all in, set it up and pay them to monitor them. I am for real not happy with these..

Honestly getting ready to return these. To even get functionality out of these you have to pay for a subscription, if you don't NONE of the clips will save rendering these essentially useless. There are camera's out there that cost a little more but don't require a subscription to have all of the features so i will be going that route. Also it does not work as well as described, it claims to have a good range but it doesn't capture anything further than 10 feet from the camera. Just a waste of money overall.

I recently purchased this set and subscribed to their secure monthly fee to ensure the most security at my mother’s house who recently passed away. About a week and a half after purchasing, several items were stolen from this location right in center view of 2 of these cameras, and neither one caught a single movement. I spent hours chatting with tech support because they have no phone number you can call and was told it must have been my internet (when no other items connected to the internet had any issue).
