Customers are dissatisfied with the motion detection of the camera. They mention that it does not detect motion well around the edges of the view, and it only records when motion is detected. Some customers also say that the camera would alert them to motion, but the video shows them. They say there is no feature to limit motion detection to specific zones.

Customers are dissatisfied with the recording quality of the security camera.

They also say that the live view delay is always there and that they spend a lot of time waiting while using the app.
"...It seems like there is a little lag in connecting, but I was doing it all on my home wifi at the same time...." Read more
"...My only criticism is the length of time that it takes to start recording - if the subject is fast moving, you may miss part of the video...." Read more
"...Also, when the cameras detect motion, there is a delay of 1-5 seconds before it starts to record since the cameras need to wake from their sleep..." Read more
"...The recording lag, the inability to only record when motion is present and a functionally stunted app will be my reasons for returning this system." Read more

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I did a significant amount of reviewing and searching and comparing before I made my purchase. I didn't over think but I didn't impulse buy either. I wasn't looking for some god awful ugly outdoor city street intersection design, nor was I looking for the "black dome" federal building cam. I also didn't want to run power cords over the eaves, down the molding, and through the house or be stuck with the only outdoor outlet location that I have. Wireless totally caught my eye, and if the batteries last longer than a couple months, then to me that is a huge win. That plus the sleek, adorable, sexy, slim design...ohhh-la-la!
I was like a kid at Christmas when I opened the box. Included in the kit was (1) camera, (4) batteries, (1) hub, (1) power cord (1) ethernet cable, (2) magnetic mounts with screws, start up directions.
I am not and IT wiz, but I can hold my own. This set up was SO easy. I will say this....I had a friend here who kept my package-opening-excitement in check. He told me "follow the directions exactly as they tell you". Ok,, I could have easily jumped and gone out of order. If I did would there have been a problem? I can't say but I did read other reviews where some had difficulty. I had none. Plug in, wait for the hub to connect to the wifi, while that was happening start my online account, sync, and away we go! I have all Apple products and I did not have any download or viewing problems or any need for add on software.
For now I have the default set on "optimum" to see how the battery life does with the video quality and 80% sensitivity.
Video quality. Clear, true color, and bright. There is a zoom option when viewing from my phone. Yes, in zoom at the current settings it can get a bit grainy. I wouldn't be getting this to read serial numbers on dollar bills going into a cash register, but for what I was looking for, I am impressed. I tested the night vision camera going down to the basement and I think it's great. Like I said, no serial numbers on bills, but you can definitely see what it is that your looking at. (While writing this the notification banner keeps popping up. The bugs by the porch light are doing a jig triggering the camera. I will keep this in mind when I find the best mounting place.)
Currently I don't have it mounted on it is on my front porch railing (don't try to come steal it, I will see you!!!). I have a porch light and front yard pole light that are on all night. I have already checked the quality of the viewing. Porch light on or off doesn't change it much. I'm thrilled.
Motion detection. As mentioned, I don't have it mounted yet and it is at mid-drift level. I don't think it is at the best location to say one way or another how well the detection is. From what I can tell already is that you have to keep in mind where it is located an what you think it will trigger. From my porch to my driveway where a car would normally park is about 25 - 30 feet and about 60 feet to the road. It might not pick up the movement of a car coming in but if someone walks up the walkway it will.
I ordered the "stick" mount for it. That will be here tomorrow. Once I have that I am going to take the time to test which mount I will use and the location for the best viewing and motion detection.
Notifications. I have it set up for email and banner alerts. When motion is detected, a banner alert (like a text message) will pop up (settings depending on your phone). It immediately starts the camera to record. There is a red light on the camera indicating that it has been triggered. I have it set for 120 seconds of recording time. Once it is done recording it will send you an email notification which proves a link for viewing. Since this is coming from the "cloud" it takes 2 minutes recording time plus another say 30 seconds for the email. You can view real time once the banner alerts you. It seems like there is a little lag in connecting, but I was doing it all on my home wifi at the same time. It will be interesting to see if that lag goes away when I'm away from the house on 3G or other internet.
I will update this in a week or so with new findings. But as of right night I AM VERY VERY PLEASED WITH MY PURCHASE. If you are looking to solve crimes or protect Fort Knox, this might not be your best choice and I'm sure there are higher priced more technical cameras out there to buy. But you you want a good quality, modern, completely wireless FREE viewing home safety/surveillance camera for added comfort, then this is a very good buy.
To being with, the set up as far as pairing up or syncing each camera with the attractive Netgear WiFi unit that it comes with is uncomplicated and easy. Press a button on the wifi unit till it flashes yellow, then press a button on each camera until the blue light starts flashing quickly to indicate it paired or synced. They are catching motion and or video the minute you sync whether you have them in armed mode or not. You can get on your Arlo app and view what is on each camera live whether armed or not. It is constant. ONce you arm your cameras through the app, any motion will send you alerts. I have not perfected my camera placement yet but getting there. I have some over hanging branches near one camera out front and if very windy it will constantly set off alerts so need to trim back or tweak the position of the camera some. Out in the horse barn was too far away from the base unit so the camera worked intermittently with a weak wifi signal, but anywhere around your home you will get a strong signal unless you are in a sprawling mansion.
One of my issues is that the cameras do seem to hork the batteries. And I've had a couple of the cameras go off line and never figured out why. The free app you upload on your phone is brilliant and uncomplicated to use. Simply "arm" or "disarm" your system from anywhere. Turn off an annoying single camera that maybe tripping and constantly sending you email and app alerts because of a blowing tree branch, a big dog hanging around on the porch, etc. You can manage each camera separately and view its battery level and wifi strength. Capture photos off of the video if you do receive a motion detection alarm.
For us and our rather rural location, having our own systems for home, garage, horse barns is a wiser choice than paying an alarm company to come out and do a cheap limited install, and then obligated to a monthly payment to monitor when it can all be right in your hands and YOU are the one most familiar with what sheriffs dept or neighbor to call if needed. I use all the cameras outside. I don't need to see what they are doing once inside my home and I don't have the uncomforting thought of someone possibly hacking into the cameras (if possible), and watching us inside our home.
While it does have a few inconveniences, such as battery usage, an occasional camera will lose it's sync, this is a great motion detection set up that wont miss! Don't just hand over all the things you have worked hard for in life and the things your family enjoy and love. Especially if you have pets at home who are vulnerable to criminals who will not care if they are harmed or killed in the process of taking your processions.

The couple little annoyances I have found is that there doesn't seem to be a way to specify an area of the view range to detect motion in. So wherever you have it pointed, it will notify you every single time there's movement in the frame. I have 2 cameras that I would like to keep an eye on the front of my house, and I've tried to position them to avoid the street and sidewalk, but there are small areas in the corners of the frame that cars or people may walk through, so there's a lot more recording happening than I would prefer. The other thing that I wasn't super thrilled with is the notification system; I want to get notified of the motion sensor being triggered, but if you have push notifications enabled, you will get the push notification as well as an email. I have blocked the alert email address because it was driving me nuts. So now I just get the push notifications. But because of the other issue I just mentioned, every time there's the tiniest motion detected, it sends a notification. If you were able to specify which part(s) of the view to detect motion in, it would solve both issues.
Anyway, otherwise I think they're great and can't wait to see how they hold up in -30 degree weather.
That's where it ends. These cameras are NOT as good as I thought. They need to be mounted very close to what you want to monitor. I mounted the cameras on the outer wall of my house outside the second floor window pointing down. I did this so they would be out of arms reach of being stolen. Doing this, they were mounted at a distance from what I wanted to monitor, so the quality is not that good. Night vision at a distance is terrible. All that said, the cameras are okay to see what's going on.
After a week, one of the cameras went offline and I tried everything to get it going again. It did not happen. Finally called Netgear and the rep suggested changing the batteries. I told her the cameras are new and the batteries should not need changing but I did it anyway and the camera worked! The camera worked off and on for two days and went offline again. The new set of batteries were done. Countless email exchanges with Netgear and all kinds of suggestions what to do with camera. Finally after more than two weeks of never ending email exchanges, Netgear figured the cam was defective and wanted to exchange it for a new one. The catch? User pays for shipping returns and it's $25.00! What!? What kind of return policy is this? I purchased a defective camera! I told them no thanks, I will return the entire package to Amazon for a refund. Doh! With the endless and pointless email exchanges with Netgear, I missed the return window with Amazon by a day. Not sure if they did this on purpose.
Bottom line, cameras are okay but just okay. Cameras need to be close to what you want to monitor and they have bad nightvision. Netgear customer service is questionable and their return policy is horrible.
UPDATE 3 MONTHS LATER: All 3 cameras keep going offline. It is usually a problem with the batteries but not always, sometime the cams just need to be re synced. All three cam are within 25 feet of the base unit. Batteries usually last about 5 weeks and then have to be changed. In the 8 months of owning these Arlo cams I have gone through 36 batteries and these are not your standard AA batteries. I have spent over $120.00 just in batteries.
I have had it with these cams and throw them out when when my battery supply runs out. I have 12 batteries left. I will accept the $550.00 loss with the purchase of these cams. I would not even think of selling them to someone unsuspecting. They are junk and I am too honest.
With this update, I have changed my two star rating to a one. I would give it a zero if I could.
