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.
The Netgear Arlo Pro 2 is being marketed as the next level 1080p HD security camera with total flexibility. Judging by the features alone, it certainly raises the bar for security cameras.
Sharper detail means better monitoring and tracking, so the Arlo Pro 2 features 1080p HD quality video for you to record and watch. With 2-Way audio, you can also listen in and talk back through the camera from your smartphone.
The Pro 2 boasts sound and advanced motion detection, with instant notifications sent to your smartphone or email. It's possible to highlight areas in your camera’s view where you want to receive motion and sound alerts. This is available when the camera is plugged in and used indoors.
Something else you can use when the camera is plugged in and used indoors is the 3-second Look Back feature. It captures activity 3 seconds before a triggered event so you’ll always know what happened, from start to finish.
Netgear's Arlo Pro 2 is IP65-certified to withstand rain, heat or cold. Meanwhile, Night Vision turns on automatically in low light so you can see clearly in the dark.
The camera can be powered by a long-lasting rechargeable battery for a wire-free option. Or, when indoors, plug it in to a power outlet to access advanced features.
You can keep a rolling 7 days of motion and sound-triggered recordings in the cloud for free, or hook up a USB drive to the Arlo Pro 2 base station for optional local backup storage.

After a recent break and enter at our property decided to look into security options,spoke to sales staff and did my own research finally deciding on the Arlo 2 wire free. I am a 69 year old pensioner with moderate technical expertise but had the whole system installed,positioned and functioning...
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.
easy install. Very long battery life. 3 weeks on and it has consumed 11% of battery. recommended
I have had this arlo pro 2 for a little while now and I give it 4 stars it's an amazing thing and the best wireless system I have ever used love it the only reason it never got a full 5 stars is because the voice or speaker feature where you can talk to people the other end of the camera is very...
I use the term ‘successful' because NETGEAR is a master marketer. They have smick marketing material, lovely point-of-sale, copious positive blogs, and multiple nice websites. You buy because of the brand recognition – not because it is superior to other offerings.
• 1080p video and 720p stills are reasonable quality when you can achieve it
No compelling reason to buy it over other brands; except perhaps the brand
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
Super easy to set up. I have one in a flower pot outside my front door, the 2nd one in my living room on a book shelf. I am notified of any movement OR sound when I'm not home. I brag on these to all my friends.
Arlo is the first security camera I have ever used. It exceeded my expectation. It was easy to activate using home Wi-Fi and get 3 cameras working. I have been using the system for 4 months and it detected every human and pet movement within the detection area.
Just fitted this system for a Friend, it was so easy. And awaiting my purchase of the same item.
