everything is good with this camera, except that it does not record anything more than 5m away. I am using the Arlo Pro cameras and they record moving things 25m away. But this Arlo camera did not record people walking past 6-7m under it. The supplier is happy to accept a return. I will order the Arlo Pro or Arlo Pro 2 to replace it.

Purchased my third Arlo camera. I’ve had the system for a few months now.
Happy with picture quality and video playback. Although if you can afford the pro 2 its worth the extra cost and it’s easy to recharge the battery.
The new Arlo app needs work though as sometimes you cant access the cameras through the app.
All of them are connected to the hub but the app buffers occasionally and wont show you the feed.
I have one arlo camera in the hallway one in the garden and the pro 2 covering the french doors.
A must for an outdoor camera is a silicone cover. In cold wet or icy conditions it does protect the camera and lengthen battery life.
Battery life is pretty good as you can set sensitivity in the app to factor out vehicles and post through the letterbox etc although we often pick up notifications of a spider on the lens or a bird looking into the camera .
On average the two battery versions last about 3 months and the rechargeable pro 2-3 months.

This camera is a good value camera with good quality HD but this model does not have sound. I have had my camera’s for over 3xyears now but 2 have failed. One just stopped working but it was outside 24/7 and in all weathers. It was outside the 1xyear warranty period , so did what stated and the other lost its colour and was in a pink haze but you could still make the picture out. I replaced it with like for like and at a good price of 79.99. Easy to set up to , to your original base station.

Really impressed with the picture quality didn’t really expect it to be so clear. Brilliant that you can monitor on your android devices. The only annoying thing is it says compatible with Alexa, we have 4, however none of our firesticks (3) were compatible, only 1 year old, so we gave had to buy another. In addition to that thd price of thix hsd gone up considersbly in a few days. Will wait it out before buying 2 of e more.

We bought this one as an addition to our already existing two camera system from Arlo.
We use it for several years now after having an intruder in the garden, that was very scary and since then we have got the cameras.
It gives me peace of mind to get alerts on my mobile phone when I’m in or out of the house to see what’s happening at home and in the garden area.
And it’s useful to see where the parcel man hides the parcels!

Got the add-on camera when it cost only 49 in March so was a very good value for money. Does the job well but some false alerts from time to time.

Easy to use and install. You will have alerts everytime the camera detects movement. But it may use up lots of mobile battery if you have too many alerts everyday.

Amazed to say it works! Was very skeptical. Would it pick up the WIFI signal, would it take hours to set up, is the footprint of the house too wide for Cameras to communicate with the Base Station?

Firstly the Cameras look nice but they arrive in loads of the usual over packaging. Once opened, the instructions are simple and sync with the base station is easy. We got range extenders for our WIFI so it took 5 minutes to figure out which signal was best. After that it was so easy to set up each Camera.

I bought additional camera mounts for mounting away from the Wall. Pleased I did as while the Arlo mounts are great, the Magnetic hold on the Canera isn’t sufficient for all offset angles you wish to point the camera.

Start to finish and set up of the base station and 5 cameras took me less than an hour. 10 minutes was set up and linking the cameras to the base station, the rest was drilling holes in the wall to mount cameras.

It’s been working without problems for 3 months. We have captured everything from Moths to Bats to Spiders and even several times caught the Muntjac deer. One Tip, you have to adjust the Camera sensitivity. Best way to do this is trial and error. Let it run for a day and if it’s picking up light changes (yes I’ve had 100 recordings on one camera from sunlight) then dial down the sensitivity 5% and see what happens the next day!

The battery’s seem to last forever even with me tuning in to live feeds once a day while on holiday for 5 minutes. It’s also got another nifty feature which is that it shows you Battery Power left so you know when to change Batteries. It’s not mains fed which is why it’s easy to set up but anyone with any concerns over Battery longevity, relax cos it’s fine.

I gave it 4 stars cos of the magnetic mounts which is the only thing I would criticise about it. Great little product, works really well.

This is what I have always wanted in a home security cam system. No wires, easy to setup, clean easy to use app, scheduling, easy ‘all on’ and ‘all off’. Video loads up to the cloud super fast (so if a burglar takes out the cam at least the footage is already uploaded – I have mine high up so someone would have to jump or get a chair, but which time I have a nice face-shot video!). Good range throughout our three story Victorian terraced house, including a cam in the back garden.

The trade off of not having wires is using batteries. The batteries each cam came with have lasted for over four or so months so far. I don’t use it for viewing, purely for motion sensor. I have bought some rechargeable batteries but have yet to use.

Tiny amount of time lag before video starts and no sound recording, but hardly an issue when weighing up all the pros. No need for regular window, door and motion sensor alarms. UK Police will ignore that, and a neighbour is not exactly going to investigate. But can’t ignore video! Could not be happier. I have yet to find anything close to this. I have bought three so far and will add a few more. Addicted.
