Just fitted this system for a Friend, it was so easy. And awaiting my purchase of the same item.

Arlo Pro 2: Returned mine. Very poor night vision (would give 0 stars for that). Online support service gave "copy-paste" answer, even when I had given them the firmware and hardware version of the camera, they asked it again in their return email.

We purchased the Arlo to keep watch on our camper trailer, the bonus is the field of view also picks up our front door and is so sensitive that even the cat sends alerts - even at night. I was worried that passing traffic would set the camera off but this is not the case.

There's more to Netgear than routers and switches. The California-based outfit may be best known for producing business-grade networking hardware, but it has used that experience to create Arlo, a relatively new name that is well positioned to become a mainstay in the smart home of today and...

Very easy to setup and use; Wireless 1080p cameras; Free seven-day storage plan; Good choice of accessories; Two-way audio

Premium price tag; Some features limited to wired; Reliability remains a question mark

We were big fans of the original Arlo Pro. There were really only a couple things that we thought could be improved and the Arlo Pro 2 does just that. In our opinion, the Arlo Pro 2 is the best wireless security camera system you can get. Here's what to expect:

Wireless cameras that can be used indoors or outdoors; Crisp 1080p video quality; 7 days of video storage for free; Built-in siren to deter potential burglars; Long battery life

Expensive; Geofencing is not perfect; Two-way audio is average at best; Activity Zones and Look Back features only available if plugged-in

NETGEAR has added great new features to its Arlo Wireless Cameras while still keeping them simple to use and install in just about any location.

It wasn't quite twelve months ago that Ausdroid first took a look at Arlo, the wire-free security cameras from Netgear. Phil reviewed the first generation product in June , and found the overall experience easy and simple to set up.

It's getting easier to set up your own internet-connected home surveillance system, but that usually still means running cables to power all your fancy HD cameras. Arlo, which recently spun off from Netgear, offers an alternative.

Wireless You can put Arlo cameras anyplace because they don't need to be plugged in; Higher resolution The upgraded 1080p sensor offers more detail than the older 720p version; Battery life You'll get several months of life from a single charge; Plan pricing The free tier of service is totally...

Nighttime video At night, the Arlo Pro 2 video is darker than I'd like; It can be hard to make out details more than a few feet away from the camera, Slow to wake up It takes 7-8 seconds for the camera to wake up and begin streaming live when operating on battery power, Clunky app The Arlo app...

It's really no surprise that NETGEAR has such a huge share of the security camera market (nearly 50%), given how good the Arlo Pro 2 is, in a number of areas. The Arlo Pro 2 excels in setup, video quality and even the software it is using.
