    I thought I was upgrading from 1st gen nope!!! Big mistake. The 2nd gen Arlo is a big down grade. Sensitively is awful only picks up motion for 1 ft of my driveway where the 1st gen covered my whole drive no problems. Yes sensitivity is set to %100 and I have redone the motion box's hundreds of times and contacted their tech support with zero improvement. The app is a huge a downgrade as well now the app never disables when it's standby mode. power cycled and firmware is up to date. It's all going in the garbage not even going to give it to someone because it's a bunch of problems.

    Great camera - Extremy unfortunate delay

    Unfortunately, this camera was a big let down. While it has a decent picture quality, and a great angle of view, it is extremely slow to capture. Even with the settings set to maximum sensitivity, the camera fails to capture the activity fully. In most cases, tbe person will be 50% of the way into tbe frame before the camera even realizes it needs to record. Given its extreme delay to record (with max sensitivity), I would not recommend this product.

    It was easy to install and easy to setup on my phone. I, too, loved the fact that I can answer the door even when out of town. Do understand that if you are not in town, their will be a delay. This is true with any doorbell that is wireless not just Arlo.

    Good image, poor performance.

    I have 12 cameras and 3 doorbells. I replaced Ring because ring at the time of purchase only had HD quality. With HD quality it was difficult to make out details or recognize someone especially at night. Arlo with 2K seemed like the way to go. Quality was excellent even with power set to optimized. Where Arlo goes south is the performance, My camera’s hardly record or worse yet record nothing. Most recordings are 2 seconds and don’t get much action and some don’t even record the same activity, I have two doorbells capturing the front door at different angles and I have package detection enabled. Two packages were delivered. A package was stolen and I only have 2 seconds of delivery and no footage on the other camera. 4 minutes later I see myself picking up one of the packages again only 2 seconds and also again nothing on the iother camera. It’s only after I see the delivery photo that there were supposed to be 2 packages. Somewhere in the 4 minutes between delivery and pickup one of them went missing. This is a private gated community. My suspicion, driver delivered, took a photo and doubled back to steal it or someone is following the driver and stealing packages in the 4 minute window. Either way I’m upset these cameras are useless but what they do capture is nice at 2k. I’ve had ring for close to a decade, through different generations and they work, they capture the action. But these cameras after 9 months are perhaps the worst performing system I’ve owned. Time to look elsewhere. Don’t buy!
