    The Arlo security camera has been great for me. The video is clear, the alerts are quick, and I feel a lot more secure knowing I can check what’s going on anytime. It’s easy to use and gives real peace of mind

    The recognition capabilities of the Arlo doorbell are so much better than the Ring doorbell I had previously. I have a doggie door so my four-legged family member can come and go out the door whenever he wants and EVERY time my Ring doorbell would tell me there is a person outside my door. The first few times seeing this are frightening then eventually it was like I was ignoring all the alerts from Ring. With Arlo I know a dog is an animal and people are recognized as expected.

    Honestly, I perfer the original first generation hardwired. This unit doesnt offer the 3 second lookback and the trigger range is a much smaller distance. The video in the apps seems much darker than all of my cameras, so much i had to check if maybe I left the film on but nope. The hardwire doesnt give the unit constant power just keeps a trickle charge to the battery. The battery life seemd decent but why hardwire if its missing the best features. I have a mechanical chime and had to redo the wires and still a hit or miss if the bell rings. As long as you hit it in the dead center the bell rings but catch the end of the button and it doesnt ring. If i didnt have the original doorbell maybe i would have liked this one more. Got.spoiled with the hardwire unit.

    Love this doorbell system. Previously had a ring camera, but switched to Arlo camera system (recommended), so added the Arlo doorbell camera as well. Easy connection, long lasting battery and high quality video. Only drawback is the subscription charges I pay for my Arlo ecosystem, but I believe the Doorbell can be used as a standalone, without additional monthly fees.

    I switched from Ring to Arlo. I wish Ring have higher quality camera. This camera is 2K it's good, however it lags a lot and when you try to respond a bell ring tends to freeze and not work. The battery connected to the home original bell electrical cables works well and has not died on me yet. The app is paid to record so that is also a downside and is not user friendly lacking on options etc.

    Love the ease of setting it up! I previously owned the audio doorbell and a separate camera so it's nice to have it combined. Hopefully the battery life is good since it has to be charged versus replacing the batteries!

    Wired option? Not really.

    Purchased on the basis that it can be hardwired after my 1st Gen gave out. Not really. Hooked it up as per instructions and set up to my specs, and the battery was drained from 100% to 10% within 3 days at the most. After numerous conversations with Arlo over the span of 3 days, turns out that this camera although states on the box "wireless or wired", is not really hardwired but gives a trickle charge once it hits a certain percentage and never really keeps the internal battery fully charged. I did like the 2K picture at night, but no matter what sensitivity setting, it hardly picked up any motion eventhough my other Arlo camera(s) picked up motion in the same area(s). The reason I went with the 2nd Gen video doorbell was due to my 1st Gen giving out. After searching the web, I did find another and new to boot 1st Gen and truly wired video doorbell. So if you want to upgrade to the 2nd Gen, be warned that it is NOT a truly wired video doorbell. I've been with Arlo since the original Arlo cameras came out and have tried all the variations up through this video doorbell, and the newer models just don't stack up to the original cameras. This is only my opinion, and other people may have had better luck, but this has been a big disappointment from Arlo.
