Arlo Pro 3 Wireless LED Floodlight Security Camera 2K HDR, 2000-3000 Lumens, Custom Detections, Emergency Response, Connects to Wi-Fi, Color Night Vision, 2-Way Audio, Rechargeable (White)

I have two of these installed, one on each end of my house, and I have been using them for over a year. They have been very reliable. The floodlights are bright and provide more than enough light. The viewing angle is excellent, and the video quality is very sharp with good resolution. Installation was straightforward, and setup was easy. The only real downside is battery access. You need to be mindful during installation that you will occasionally have to take them down to recharge. One of mine is easy to reach from a window, while the other requires a ladder. You can avoid this by hardwiring them or adding a solar charger, but since I only recharge them a few times a year, it has been a minor inconvenience for me. Overall, they have worked exactly as expected and I am very happy with them.

I am very pleased with this camera. The setup and install on my garage was quick and easy. It connected to my Arlo base easily within seconds. I am amazed on how bright the light is. My garage sensor light just stopped working and that gave me the idea to add this to my system. It looks well made and durable and should have no problems outdoors. I do not think i will have any battery life issues because i purchased the outdoor power cord. I do recommend the cord because it increases the light brightness adding increased security to my home. I will give it about 6 months and do an update.

****updated Nov 1, 2020**** Poor support. I submitted a request for support through the Arlo app TWO WEEKS AGO and have not received a response. Unacceptable. Lowering to one star and I unfortunately I cannot recommend this item anymore after connection issues despite a very strong wifi network, and non-existent support. ***updated oct 2020***** When the camera is working, it's 5/5 stars. Clear picture, good notifications. But I've had intermittent connection issues over the first month I've had it. It will inexplicably lose connection from the wifi network for hours or even a day, and then suddenly reconnect, despite having a "strong" wifi connection according to the Arlo app. Annoyingly, I don't get a notification when it has disconnected. When I stand next to the device I get 400-500mbps on my phone (gigabit internet), so signal strength should not be an issue. Still, the camera will randomly disconnect or at least show as disconnected in the app. I've also noticed that it will occassionally miss obvious motion events (like my car pulling into the driveway and me bringing groceries in) without ever registering a motion event. I'm assuming this is a time when it has disconnected but since I don't get a disconnect notification I have no idea. So when the camera works, it's great. But the connection issues are a concern. I was planning on getting more Arlo cameras but I've paused that for now. ******End update I got this for my driveway since I was in need of both a Floodlight and camera. Installation was very easy and the device connected quickly to my wifi network. I'm happy with the 2k video quality, it's nice and clear. The app is pretty easy to use. The light is very bright although it does seem to take a second or two longer to recognize motion and turn on than a standard floodlight. One thing I'm always concerned about with these battery cameras is recording delay and notification delay. The recording delay seems to be 2 or 3 seconds from the time the camera detects motion before it will record. From a home security standpoint, that can be important. This can be eliminated if you attach a charging cable (sold separately) to the unit, then it will use what Arlo calls "foresight" and automatically record the 3 seconds before the camera detects motion. After playing around with this camera, I think it will be necessary for me to get the cable since I don't want to miss anything. I've had a few hiccups with getting timely notifications on my phone. A few times there was a 10 minute delay, but most other occasions I've gotten notifications in 4 or 5 seconds. Also, the battery has gone down about 25% in 4 days of use. I have been using it a lot since I've been messing with the settings, but at this rate the battery barely lasts 2 weeks. Getting the charging cable will also take care of this issue, so I'm not too worried. My biggest overall impression of my first Arlo device is that it's a good camera on battery only, but has the potential to be a great camera with attached power (AC or solar, both sold separately), since the power eliminates most of my complaints.

Excellent security camera that’s easy to install and pair with an existing system. The battery lasts forever. Ours has been on the same charge for over a year now, and is at about 40%.

Absolutely love this camera. I bought it on prime day and it was about half off. It is pretty easy to set up and install, has great video quality during day or night, and has a lot of customization on the what motion will trigger it. I live in a busy street and am able to create zones to prevent it from detecting motion every time a car drives by. The floodlight is insanely bright and it has a dusk to dawn feature to prevent it from turning the light on during the day. The battery lasts about 3 months and charges pretty quickly. I had a masked person walk up to my house recently in the middle of the night. The camera sensed the motion and sent an alert to my phone immediately. It also spot lighted them, which deterred them from trying to break in. I wish it hadn’t happened at all, but it’s terrifying to think of what might have happened if I didn’t have the camera, or if I had a camera that didn’t light up when it saw motion. I’ll be buying another one for my back door now. You do have to have an Arlo subscription for it to save video clips, but it’s very inexpensive. I think for a single camera, it’s like $2 a month and it’s around $10 a month for unlimited cameras. You get a free trial period when you first get the camera, but in my opinion it’s worth the few dollars for the extra features. It’s worth noting that the camera still works without the subscription, it just lacks some of the features that you would want out of a smart security camera.

Grat quality!

So far I’m pleased with the Arlo 3 floodlight. The camera quality is good with wide viewing area that leaves most images recognizable. The two way intercom works well and so far I have been able to hear clearly during a conversation. The flood light is extremely bright and the lighting really lights up my driveway. I must also note I like how the Arlo app compliments the whole system by giving you speaker volume settings, light brightness adjustment, and intercom capabilities all within a few simple clicks. One noticeable down side is a slight delay in camera/app response time, and the intercom has a delay as well, but I’m sure this is due to it being WiFi and internet speed. Overall I’m very pleased with the product and would recommend to anyone looking for a great camera system that is easy to setup without the hassle of wiring anything together.

I own quite a few Arlo cameras at home, mostly Pro 4S and Ultra variety. This is the only flood light camera from Arlo that I purchased and I have to say, it is the one I like the least. This camera has a couple of issues that I consider make it not very useful. First of all, this camera uses Arlo's own charging cable, so you can't hook it up to an electrical box, like a normal flood light outside of your garage. Due to this, I didn't install it at my garage, since I would need to find a way to run a charging cable to charge it. Yes, I know it runs on rechargeable batteries, but I don't want to have to swap out the battery every 4 to 6 weeks, so I prefer to run a charging cable to it. Second issue with this flood light camera is the flood light. The light is not very bright. I adjust it to max brightness and it still can't illuminate too much area. Initially I thought this low brightness is because I run it off the battery so I purchased an Arlo charging cable and connect it to the flood light camera, but it didn't help much. The brightness improved a little bit, but still not very useful. I mean a cheap $20 flood light from Home Depot would provide a much brighter flood light compare to this. Anyway, at the end I did keep this camera because by the time I decided that I don't like it and want to return it, I was already outside of the return window. The camera itself works quite well so I really don't have any complaints about the camera itself. However, the flood light is not very useful so if flood light is important for you, look elsewhere.
