ArloPro 5S Spotlight Security Camera 2K HDR | Outdoor | Wireless | Dual-Band Wi-Fi Connects to Strongest Network |12X Zoom, 2-Way Audio, Siren, Color Night Vision,Live Stream(White, 4 Cameras)

I’ve been using the Arlo Pro 5S 2K Spotlight Camera for a while now, and I’m really happy with the performance. The video quality is excellent, even at night thanks to the spotlight feature. Setup was simple, and the app makes it easy to monitor everything remotely.The battery life is solid, and it recharges fairly quickly. I love that it integrates with my smart home devices too. Motion detection is accurate and hasn’t given me any false alerts. Definitely worth the investment for peace of mind around the house!

This camera are awesome. The picture quality is super clear—really crisp 2K video, even at night. Motion detection is on point and recorded activities have really clear video compared to another cheaper system we had. Setup was so easy; it literally took a few minutes to scan the QR code on the camera and connect to the app.The app itself is straightforward and makes it simple to tweak settings or check the cameras whenever you want. I can check the event directly when my phone sends a notification in the drop down. The spotlight feature is a great touch for added security. If you’re looking for a solid, hassle-free home security setup, this is a great pick!

After having this Arlo system (I actually have 5 battery powered cameras, a wired doorbell camera and a wired floodlight camera) for couple weeks now I am comfortable stating that I regret this purchase. I’ll just cover 2 of the complete deal killer issues here, but there are additional problems with the Arlo system.First, a couple of the cameras will not stay connected and will not reconnect. I have zero connection issues with other devices on my wifi network and my connection speed to the Internet tests at just under 1gb per second. My doorbell camera will just randomly be offline and not work as does the wired floodlight camera. At this point the floodlight camera will not reconnect. I spent 2 hours of my time going through all of Arlo’s troubleshooting instructions before calling their customer support, which is apparently all based in India. I then spent nearly an additional 2 hours on the phone with their support doing basically the same thing.With this camera, it is located outside at 14’ high over my garage doors, so it’s not exactly convenient to spend a good hour’s worth hanging at the top of a ladder in below freezing weather. Regardless, I followed their instructions for nearly 2 hours which included sending them several screenshots verifying what errors their app was showing. Now I’m waiting until some other support people up their chain of command can call me back. Clearly there is either a problem with this camera or their software; neither of which I can control. I feel that I have wasted far more of my time than I should because their product has failed. It’s bad enough that this product lasted less than 2 weeks but now I am forced to literally waste hours and hours of my time speaking with people in India. I am done with this camera/floodlight.Now the worst problem with the Arlo product. One of the selling points is that, with their paid subscription, their camera software can detect the difference between a person, a vehicle, an animal and a package. Sadly, this is not true. I’ve now wasted hours on the phone with their customer support in India trying to resolve this problem with zero success.When “arming” their camera security system at night (or any other time for that matter) I do not need to have alerts sent to me because a squirrel ambled by at 3am. I also have outdoor pets that will also walk past the cameras all throughout the night and those too cause the Arlo system to send me a false alert that I have someone walking around home. It didn’t take but a night or two before we had to disable the alarm system all night to stop the constant false alerts.In order to try and prevent these constant false alarms, customer support had me turn the sensitivity down so far that the cameras won’t detect a person walking up to my door. The lady in India seemed to think this was a good solution! Then the other “solution” was to stop the system from contacting me when an alert was triggered. Again, this too renders the system useless.The addition problem with the Arlo system is that all these false alarms really kills the battery life of the cameras. Their solution to this problem is for me to buy a $60 solar panel for each camera. This adds enough to the already higher priced cameras that they are not competitive with the pricing.By the time you take into consideration the hardware problems, the connectivity issues, the software problems and difficult to understand customer support based in India, these factors totally erase any potential attributes to buying this wireless security system. Because of these problems, along with other problems I don’t have time to type out here, I see no value in the Arlo system at this time. I wish Arlo functioned as advertised but, sadly, it does not and I certainly cannot recommend this product and their required service.

The Arlo Pro 5S 2K Spotlight Camera is a fantastic upgrade. The 2K video quality is sharp, and the spotlight makes night footage super clear. The AI detection notifications accurately detect people, vehicles, and animals, cutting down on false alerts so I can conveniently stay up to date when I’m away from home. The battery life is solid, and the dual-band Wi-Fi plus SecureLink ensures a strong connection, even during outages. The camera is weather-resistant, easy to set up, and the Arlo Secure app makes monitoring simple and fast. Highly recommended for anyone looking for reliable and smart home security!

Spotlight is a little weak and it’s hard to tell when the camera decides to charge off the connected solar panel, but it has a great field of view and the video quality is great. Installation is easy. Very happy with the purchase. Only complaints are that it takes a while to load the live view, sometimes even stalls, and the camera won’t adhere to the activity zones that are set up. For example I set up the activity zones just inside the perimeter of our yard but it keeps picking up cars and people walking on the sidewalk and my phone blips throughout the day because of it, but otherwise a great camera.

The image quality is amazing — super clear even at night. I love the spotlight feature and how easy it is to adjust motion settings.Battery life is great, and it was very easy to install and connect to my phone.I feel so much safer now knowing I can check my home anytime, anywhere.Highly recommend for anyone looking for a reliable and high-quality security camera!

I couldn't be more thrilled with my Arlo Pro camera system; it truly deserves every one of its five stars! The setup process was incredibly easy and intuitive, a true testament to Arlo's user-friendly design, allowing me to have crystal-clear video streaming to my phone within minutes. What truly sets the Arlo Pro apart is the profound peace of mind it provides, knowing that my home is constantly monitored with its sharp 2K HDR video, excellent color night vision, and reliable motion detection, giving me complete control and assurance whether I'm home or away.
