Netgear Arlo Pro is one of the few security camera systems that is completely wireless. It’s a bit expensive compared to ordinary security systems, but Arlo Pro has more features since it’s "smart" and completely wireless. The free basic plan supports up to 5 cameras and has 7 days of free cloud storage. The Premier plan is $100/year, supports up to 10 cameras and has 30 days of free cloud storage. Included in the box are: the base station, base station power adapter, Ethernet cable, Arlo Pro cameras with rechargeable batteries, power adapter/cable to recharge the batteries, and magnetic wall mounts with mounting screws. The setup was very smooth. The guide was easy to follow. It doesn’t take long at all and consists of downloading the free Arlo app (iOS, Android, and Amazon), creating your free Arlo account, connecting the base station to your router, then syncing and mounting the cameras. Last week Arlo announced the Arlo Pro 2 which is the newest version of Arlo Pro and even though it is slightly better in a couple of ways, many of the new features depend on the Arlo Pro 2 camera being plugged into power and indoors. That’s why I still recommend getting the original Arlo Pro system because it is cheaper and the Arlo Pro 2 camera is compatible with it. Arlo Pro cameras are indoor/outdoor. They have a 300-ft line of sight range from the base station and are IP65-certified weatherproof so they should be fine in the snow, rain, or heat. Cameras connect to the mounts via the built-in magnets which allows you to easily adjust the camera angle and quickly remove the cameras when you need to recharge. Arlo says a battery can last 4-6 months but it really just depends on the camera settings and how much it is recording and detecting motion or sound. Mine have been installed for about 7 weeks, and they’re all right below 60% so if they continue like this they should last around 4 months total on a full charge. The way Arlo Pro works is it’s not designed to be constantly recording and saving video. Instead, Arlo Pro is meant to record short video clips only upon motion detection or sound detection. Even though it’s not constantly saving video, the cameras are constantly active and you are able to live stream any camera at any time from your smartphone or device of choice as long as your device is connected to the internet. That’s another reason I went with Arlo Pro because all the cameras can be managed and viewed via the free app wherever I am. I love that the app can be configured to log in automatically with Touch ID on my iPhone. On the Devices tab you can see all your different cameras and you can view a live feed by tapping the play button. Under the cameras there’s a button to trigger the base station alarm which is a super loud 100 decibel siren. The Library tab gives you a daily list to view any recorded clips that are stored in the cloud on your account. You can tap on any video clip to view it and on the free basic plan, you can download and save it any time within 7 days of the clip being recorded. It has 4 main modes: Armed, Disarmed, Schedule, and Geofencing. You can customize the settings however you’d like. In the Armed mode you can set the rules for each of your cameras. You can set each camera to record upon motion, sound or both or neither. You can tell it what to do when it detects motion or sound, you can configure it to turn the siren on or not upon detection, and you can set your notification settings so it will instantly notify you if motion is detected on one of your cameras. The Schedule mode lets you set a custom schedule of days and times that will automatically arm and disarm your system. Geofencing mode will automatically arm and disarm your system whenever your smartphone is within a certain radius of your base station. The camera quality is 720p standard HD resolution, and that’s where the new Arlo Pro 2 cameras have the biggest advantage because those are full HD 1080p. The cameras have a wide 130-degree viewing angle so they are able to capture a lot inside the frame. They have 2-way audio with a microphone and speaker. You can choose to enable night vision which is pretty decent quality. Grant access lets you give access to your spouse or whoever you choose so they can download and install the Arlo app and view all your cameras. After using this for over a month I think the #ArloPro system is the best wireless #SecurityCamera system for people who want something that’s easy to set up and use, and something that is completely wireless.

So if you set up your security system on a Monday you have until the following Monday then everything gets erased and starts over. I hope that makes sense lol I had the same question!

How are you liking the Arlo security system so far? I've been on the fence about what camera to get but after seeing this video I'm buying the Arlo Pro. My fiance of 6 years broke up with me so it's just me and my daughter living in our house. We live in the woods so I want to have a security system in place. I also need to get some flood lights.

@AzBlkHawk 5 лет назад

I returned the arlo pro 2. First set I got, cameras kept disconnecting from the base, even though wifi signal was strong. Got it exchanged. Second pair, you could not hear nothing out of the camera speakers. It sounded like you were whispering. After checking online, it seems like arlo has always had an issue with the speaker and 2 way communication all together.

@OurOregonlife 5 лет назад

I love the idea, but two flaws with the unit being used outside. As opposed to wiring. These units need to have reasonable access, meaning they may be within reach of tampering. A guy with a hoodie and a stick could disable the system easily. Meanwhile wire are usually located in the house eaves, meaning they are often only accessed by a ladder. I love the concept but anytime something is not nailed down it may not stay there long. BTW great review.

I just purchased a 3 camera Arlo wireless system for mainly outdoor security. My biggest concern is battery performance, especially in winter when temps are so low, batteries may not provide the needed voltage. Have not found any data yet while searching the internet. Any advise or comments would be appreciated for outdoor use in cold temps. Unit I purchased using 4 x CR123 batteries. I have not opened box yet based on my concerns. Mr. P

@stephencerro14 5 лет назад

I've had my two-camera wireless system outside for three years and they work quite well. Unfortunately, I do have a good amount of vehicle traffic within view of one camera so I do have to recharge it about once every couple of months. The other one's battery doesn't need charging for maybe 4 months or more - so, not bad. I'm looking to buy a three or four Arlo camera system to monitor my 90 year old mother who still lives by herself for the most part.

@BuckFush08 5 лет назад

Nice review! I happen to feel that a wired system is much more beneficial. First, I don't want to have to drag a ladder out to reach and remove my security camera (I assume they'd be mounted high up to avoid theft) once every four months, charge the batteries, then climb BACK up to reinstall the cameras. Also, by being wired, the camera can be high def and on full time, without concern over shortening the battery life! Also, why would anyone want to disable their security camera, unless it's because they're worried about using up the battery! Only advantage of wireless is on the day you install. The entire time you own that camera after that, you'll need to be concerned about battery life and minimizing camera usage! Took me about an hour to mount a wired security camera in my home, and now, as long as the camera doesn't break, I don't have to worry about charging it, or turning it on/off to save battery life. I guess everyone's needs are different, just trying to give some food for thought. Thanks for the great review!

@saintedge 5 лет назад

@s1l3ntopus 3 года назад

Is Arlo pro base station only compatible with Cat5? I tried using Cat6 with no luck. I searched everywhere and Arlo says to use provided Ethernet cable but does NOT identify the type of Ethernet cable. I’m not using the provided Cat5 cable and it works, just the Cat6 does NOT work. I was hoping to improve the time it takes the Arlo app to connect to live cameras. Any help would be kind of you

@310socal 7 лет назад

I have had this Arlo 4 camera system over a year now! For $ 800 WHY do they not include a battery charger? So if you have a extra battery you don't have to pull your camera down to charge your battery. Also if you have high foot traffic and pets you might get 2 weeks out of the battery! Also IMPORTANT if your internet goes out you lose all camera feeds until you reset the base unit power of then on again! Also you can not filter out zones if you have trees or bushes blowing in the wind a battery killer! Feel free to ask me other questions! I feel this system is for some on who cant really drill holes in there home or apt. for any reason or you have the need to really move a camera around room to room.

@sira451 6 лет назад

Great review Andy. You covered everything that I was concerned about. I have been looking for a wireless system for over a year. Arlo was on my radar, but I didn't purchase. Today, quite by accident, I saw the Arlo Pro including 3 cameras was on a very good price at HSN. I never shop there, but am opening an account to purchase this system based on the information you've provided. Thanks for an excellent review!

I have a question about the basic subscription plan. So if you stay on the basic, does that mean you only get 7 Days of recording and then you can go in and erase the storage so it can keep recording or do you have to pay for the other plans in order to keep recording? Hope that made sense

@7gpanda744 3 года назад

@brianwill5424 6 лет назад

The only thing I don’t like about these battery operated cameras is the fact that you have to change the batteries every couple of months. I had to return my Arlo and I ended up getting the Armorax camera, the outdoor one, it’s not battery operated, but it has a better picture quality and does everything I need from a security camera.

@thehistoryprof6750 5 лет назад

Andy, good review. Question: how many times have you recharged to date, and have you experienced any diminished performance following a recharge. Some Arlo owners have stated significant reductions in battery life, i.e., initial charge 4 months, subsequent charges 2 months, then one month, then two weeks, then battery required replacement, etc. Hopefully this is not common given the popularity of Arlo.

Great info and review Andy. I looking to buy a camera security system but I'm new to them and have a question. When the camera sends you an "Alert", can (or does) it send it to you via text message? I saw that you mentioned that it can send you an email but I don't check my phone every time I get an email but, like most people, I almost always check a text message right away. If the message is sent somehow thru the app, does that require the app to be running on your phone 24/7? Thank you!

@aslye 7 лет назад

It only sends notifications through email and phone notifications. For example on an iPhone all you have to do is allow the app to send you notifications and it will instantly notify you through a pop-up notification on your phone (this does not require the app to be running)

This Arlo Pro system does NOT WORK PROPERLY! The stupid cameras start recording after the motion detection event has already occurred. So typically you will end up seeing only the tail end of whatever/whoever caused the motion detection trigger. Yesterday they had a massive outage due to which the system worldwide was down for more than 12 hours. The number of glitches and issues with this system are NUMEROUS! I was super excited about this system because I wanted to install a wire-free surveillance system. But with the number of glitches and issues I have faced with this over the past one year, I cannot recommend this item. Well, if you like having headaches, want to throw your month and/or are relying on a dysfunctional system for your home surveillance/protection then go right ahead. You have been warned from an existing customer.

@jenifferzhang5822 6 лет назад

Having problem using my (new) iPhone X and this camera systems software. The audio does not work (talking through to camera)(yes, I allowed the software to use my microphone). At first I thought it was a problem with the Arlo. But the audio(microphone) does work fine, on my iPhone 6S, iPad, and Mac Computer. Therefore, it appears to me, they need to upgrade Arlo's software to work with the iPhone X. The video works fine on this phone, but not the audio. And if I were to return a product for NOT working, it definitely would NOT be the iPhone X! Netgear, FIX YOUR SOFTWARE!!!

Note to anyone looking to getting this product, the product (hardware) itself is ok, but the service around this product is really flaky - as @Minds eye has pointed out, and from personal experience after having used the product for almost 1yr, the system behind Arlo randomly goes down without notice, even from the company, making you to believe that it’s a router connection or network issue - but really it’s because their system behind the product is down. What made me realise this is, after the first time I experienced the system outage, after numerous factory resets, including our router, the internet (middle) led light would simply not light up. I even went to the effort of changing the Ethernet cable connecting the Arlo base to the router - still no luck. Accepting defeat, i left it for a day or so....on the 2nd/3rd day the base decided to just start working again all on its own...and agin we recently experienced this same scenario and we’re without security surveillance for 4 days!! It’s frustrating. The base decided to start working again on the 5th day....To top it off, when I tried using their chat feature to reach out to them for help, I sat there for 10min and got no where! Working in digital and experience design, waiting 10min for a chat to load is quite laughable for any digital product. Unless Arlo addresses their flaky system, I wouldn’t recommend this product to anyone who needs a reliable security surveillance system. I am currently looking for a wired alternative.

I have setup an LG G PAd 4 Android tablet for her to use as a monitor in the kitchen. The thing is, whenever it detects motion, it just gives the notification, and she still has to click it to see. Is there a way to make it automatically open? If this Arlo wireless system has this function, I will get this instead of the Ring spotlight. Please let me know, anyone. Thanks in advance (she is driving me nuts lol)

Seeing how much these high end systems cost, I wouldn't be surprised if people broke in just to steal the security camera system!

I bought the three camera system and spent two days trying to make it work. Returned it to store and got my money back. Will never buy this brand .

I bought a 5 camera system of Arlo Pro 2, and they all work great. Had them a month, and they are perfect.

I was told it would let you talk to anyone closest to the camera if so how

@aslye 6 лет назад

You can speak through any camera using the mobile app

Seem like what you are talking about sound great. However you don't mention nothing about security.

Can't get my outdoor camera off night vision , images almost totally washed out.

@aslye 6 лет назад

A toggle to turn off night vision should be in the camera settings

The base DOES require wired power

What good is a security system that depends on internet service being there? Not a wise decision.

@pgvandy1 6 лет назад

It may depend on what works for each consumer, geographical location, type of application city, rural, wooded... whatever. We "had to used comcast exfinity hd cameras" Even tho the internet was on ... the cameras constantly would go out and need to be reset. Pain in the %$#. So when it goes immediate eye rolling..on what we have to do next (recently as a matter of fact) it went out and we could not reset it from out of state. You have to go to the main source (attic, room or whatever and physically unplug wait then preset. In the mean time .... our wifi was on and "never" went out. I dont know if there is something to the camera frequencies or whatever - we had comcast upgrade to the top of the line (according to comcast) we even had a new wire put in. Still unreliable. We recently bought ARLO.. awesome product. We can hook up more cameras than we need (5) and WE DO NOT HAVE A MONTLY FEE like COMCAST! I love the free 5 camera recordings - all we need anyway and no fee. Its a win win. :) I might add both cameras were HD but the clarity and the sound feature also sealed the deal.
