Meh.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The camera pans really slow, and I haven't figured out how to best use the features. The app is not very user friendly. I prefer Blink and Ring over Arlo so far. The notifications seem to work only sometimes, and the camera will go into sleep mode when it's supposed to be armed.

Great

This security camera is the best. It is super easy to set up, no hassle at all. I love that it is plug in so no need to worry about the battery. It was easy to connect to app and the motion tracking is an amazing feature, really gives you peace of mind that all corners are covered.

Awesome camera!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This indoor camera is so cool and modern! You can either install it on the wall or just place it on a flat surface. It is super easy to set up on the phone as well with their app. It tracks movement so it can rotate 360 degrees and follow whatever is moving. You can go on the app and see the video live or older clips. You can also talk through the camera live as well which is cool. Overall I think this camera is awesome and would definitely recommend for anyone who wants a great quality indoor camera!

Meh!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's an ok option if you're on a budget. The big issue for me was the lagging when in live mode. It is egregious even with the highest speed internet on the market and over WiFi. The app is also super basic. The big positive here is the ease of installation.

Didn't know I needed it until I got it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This camera is great for our grand babies' room. It makes it easy to see them while they are sleeping, playing, or getting into trouble. Easy to set up and easy to use. Clear videos and love the night vision!

Very nice quality recording

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So I set this camera outside in my porch just to get an idea on how well it works. The video quality is pretty good. The app is useful but I feel like it could be far better. I couldn't figure out a way to get the camera to stop recording over the smallest motion unless you turn it to home and than it just doesn't pick up any movement. I had over 600 video's of nothing. Which I found to be a bit annoying. I do know with Ring I can change the sensitivity to prevent that. However I did not find that in the Arlo app. I do like that it turns and follows motion. That's one of the best features of this camera. I do love that it has safety features for fire and an alarm to scare off intruders.

Happy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the Arlo Essential Pan Tilt Indoor Camera for a few weeks and I’m impressed with its performance. The installation was very simple and it took less than 10 minutes to set up and connect to the app. The video quality is crystal clear, especially in 2K resolution, and I love that I can pan and tilt the camera remotely from my phone. Motion detection is responsive and accurate, sending instant alerts without too many false alarms. The night vision is also excellent and captures detailed footage even in complete darkness. The app interface is intuitive and makes it easy to check live footage or recorded clips. Overall, it gives me peace of mind knowing I can monitor my home anytime.

Very nice camera

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have owned many around cameras and this one is by far one of the best ones I have owned. It mounts and tracks movement. You can also remotely move it from your phone. The video quality is very good and it has excellent zoom.

So Many Features!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This camera has a lot of really great features that make monitoring your home seamless. First, the very accessible app helps things run smooth with the ability to arm, or disarm your home at the press of one simple button. I appreciate that when the camera is disarmed, the camera lens turns downward. I think this helps myself and guests feel more comfortable. The camera stands so nicely in my armoire but is also comes with a mounting kit. The camera easily swivels towards whatever motion is going on in the home. The picture quality is clear (even at night it's easy to see) and the arrows on the app helps you point the camera in any direction. The audio also comes in great. Additionally there are tons of great features. Too many to even name! I feel safer in my home thanks to this camera!

Reliable plug-in power, smooth firmware updates, clear 2K video, and great privacy features.

I've been using the Arlo Essential Pan Tilt Indoor Security Camera 2K for some time now and I'm very happy with its overall performance. Setup was quick and simple, and since it's plug-in powered, I don't have to worry about charging batteries or losing power unexpectedly. The camera stays consistently connected and works reliably. The 2K video quality is sharp and clear, both during the day and at night. The pan and tilt feature allows me to see the entire room, and motion tracking works smoothly. I receive alerts almost instantly, which is very helpful. Regarding firmware, updates install automatically through the app, and I haven't experienced any glitches or connection issues. Everything runs smoothly in the background without needing constant attention. I also really appreciate the privacy cover, which gives me peace of mind when using the camera indoors. Overall, this camera is easy to use, stable, and dependable for everyday home security.
