JAVIER SANTIAGO MARTINEZ: La descripción decía “usado como nuevo” y lo recibí dañado.

Amazon Customer: this is an add on camera for an existing Arlo set up.

I have no problems other than the night vision. make sure that you set it up and there are no glares from the street lights and adjust the camera settings as well (through the app). No biggie though, set up is as important as the quality of gear, and this is good quality gear!

Nomad: After a year of owning this camera I’m very disappointed! It crashes constantly and won’t record anything! Sometimes it records only a partial video and sometimes only shows a picture of straight colour lines. Night vision was ok for awhile but now horrible quality. I’m past my return window and any kind of support! I do not recommend!

RobG: UPDATED 2020-08-28 - Its been a couple years now and I have to change my rating from 2 stars to 5 stars. While still frustrated about the "pixel detection" (see full details in original review below), I have to admit, Arlo has done a great job with their firmware and software quality. All of the gripes I had are ALL resolved (except physical limitations of PIR through window and flash claims of pixel detection).

I have Arlo pros, pro 2s, and more recently Pro 3's with the Smart detection. I am impressed with the improvements and have become a bit of an Arlo fanboy.... total 180 degree change from where I first got them and kept hitting issue after issue. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK TEAM ARLO!

Since owning these for >2 years, as well as the smart lights and more recently Pro 3s, they've served me well! They've prevented 2 burglaries, and gave me peace of mind this past week when I had to evacuate my home due to fires in the Santa Cruz mountains.

[Original review from 2017 - left here to show that Arlo has listened and done a 180.... and I AM now a big fan!!!]

You may have guessed by my headline that I am NOT an Arlo fan! I want to be, and I...

FuLL NeL$oN: -=First Impressions=-
Nice and secure packaging to protect hardware from damage. It white… very white! Not liking that since cameras are NOT supposed to be seen or attention drawn to them. I am sure this can be fixed with some sort of skin… yep, already ordered some. Looking through the box you get two magnetic mounts and NO OUTDOOR MOUNTS. Disappointing… have to shell out more cash.

-=Build=- (7/10)
Everything is made of plastic. Bright white plastic. This is how these can be made affordably.
The cameras have a high gloss finish so they stand out anywhere you put them. The cameras feel light and cheap until you actually put the batteries in them… then they feel like solid cameras. The battery is built extremely well. There isn't any flex in the casing like you find in other cheap rechargeable battery packs. The mounts are plastic with a metal half sphere. I like these mounts for indoor use as they offer multiple angles and flexibility for aiming your cameras. However, these are NOT good for outdoor use since someone can just walk up and snatch your camera. To rectify this, Arlo has included a threaded mounting option for which they do NOT provide. You will...
