Arlo - Q Indoor 1080p Wi-Fi Security Camera - White/Black

I purchased the Arlo Q to use indoors with the Arlo Pro system (4 cameras). They all work great together as long as you don't mind the power wire for the Arlo Q. I was very pleased with the quality of the picture and sound (you can talk to someone through the camera using the Arlo app. I'm buying 2 more tomorrow. Great product and easy to set up. The first camera (Arlo Q) went into my garage.

I needed a 5th Arlo camera and having it wired (Plugged into 110V outlet) for power was perfectly fine in the new location. This camera works great and no batteries! The only thing I don't like about the Arlo Q is that you can't use it to trip the other, wireless, cameras to record like you can with Rules and Modes for the rest of the system. It seems to be independent of the other cameras with it's own Modes and Rules. Hopefully a Netgear update comes out fixing this but it's not really a deal breaker since I can easily work around that issue. Oh, and the power cord is awesomely long. I have it up at the ceiling level and it easily reaches the outlet. My walls are close to white and the cord runs down close to a window trim so it's hardly noticeable. If someone was going to run it down the middle of a dark wall it would be pretty ugly. Of course you might be able the paint the cord with some kind of flexible hobby paint to match walls.

It was amazing! For the first month that we had it then exactly 30 days later the 2 way audio stopped working. The night vision works well and the zoom feature works well. When I open the app to look at the picture it takes a good 4 minutes to refresh and load :( I guess I got my money’s worth I wish we would have bought the more expensive cameras.

Its a pretty decent camera if you just to capture a clear image of general movement, but for being a 1080 camera it cant read the plate numbers of cars 50 feet away, so detail is not there. I cant recommend it if you really need identifying information but as a general camera sure.

I installed this in my first bedroom window to catch views out my front door. Tons of different mounting options as it has a removable mounting base and great swiveling neck. You do have to play with distance, and angle to not pick up glare off the glass at night. The microphone works really well as I can hear outside sounds even though its inside. Now I want 3 more to get a full 360 view around the place.

I bought the arlo Q camera to add to my collection of the arlo pro cameras. I love the rechargeable pro cameras and now the arlo Q plugged into the inside of my home. Security is great.

I have been reading reviews for months before I picked out this camera. I wanted a nest cam since I have a nest thermostat and smoke alarms however while I liked everything else about the nest cam, I did not want to pay $10 a month for recordings, and without paying that $10 a month there was no way to record anything that happened, even if I was watching it as it happened on the app. All I wanted was a camera that could capture video when motion was detected while we are away on vacations or more than a few hours, or to check in on our puppy that we are soon getting. I don't want one that stores the video on a memory card as a thief could just remove that on their way out. This camera is perfect. For what I want at least. It was easy to set up. It has a long enough power cord to place it where I needed it. No batteries to replace. And it immediately stores the video clips in the "cloud" when it detects motion and these are viewable for seven days. There is no monthly fee for this and the app allows you to download the clip to your phone if you need to keep it longer than seven days. The video picture seems fine and I had no problem connecting to our Wi-Fi and setting it up. It is easy to arm and disarm it through the app. I can run through the room and within five seconds I get an alert on my phone that there was motion detected. I can then view it on the app or wait about 30 seconds and Arlo emails me a link in my email that goes directly to the video that was recorded. I thought it would cut off me running through the room since I did it so quickly however it started recording about five seconds before I ran through and therefore captured everything. I set it to record 30 seconds when motion is detected but you can pick from 10 seconds up to two minutes depending on your preference. The status light on the front of the camera can be turned off easily in the app so the camera can be hidden more easily if desired. I tested out the night vision briefly and while I don't have anything to compare it to, it seems like it worked well. Overall I am very happy with my purchase and like that I don't have to pay a monthly fee.

I’ve received this item free to review and test for NETGEAR’s First Look Review Program. It’s great to be part of this Program and will be giving all honest reviews throughout my participation with this program. ~First Thoughts~ When I received this package in the mail from NETGEAR I thought it would have been in a bigger box but it wasn’t. As I opened the package I enjoyed the way it was packed within its own box and felt like they want the customer to have a great experience with opening it. I find myself saying Arlo from times to times because it’s very catchy jingle. ~Setup~ The installation for the Arlo Q Security Camera was easy just had to find the right place for it in my home to watch the front door and the rest of the house. I used the wall mount included with the camera but didn’t want to screw the wall mount into my wall at the moment of install so I used heavy duty Velcro strips to place the wall mount onto the wall. The set up for this camera was easy took less than 10 minutes with the application on my android phone. I measured the power cable to this camera and runs almost 10 feet so you’ve got plenty of room move the camera to where you want it. ~Features~ Best features within a single camera at 1080P! The Night vison works great for this camera and the audio it picks up from the camera sounds very clear. The Motion and Sound detection works like a charm and with the Free 7 days of recordings work great for these cameras but upgrading your plan can help if you own more than one. The camera also supports 2-way audio so you can communicate between the people at your house. ~Performance~ The performance for this camera is great with only a 5 second delay from the time you watch it on a live stream to your device. The picture comes in perfect along with the audio. Everything is synced together when you review the videos with audio. ~Did Product meet my expectation?~ Yes it did! As with every product that comes from NETGEAR every customer should enjoy the quality that NETGEAR puts into the production of every single item that they make. ~Price-value~ The price of a single camera comes in at $219.99 so it is a hefty price at this price range for just one camera but the quality of these are great and you won’t regret it. ~Would I recommend this item to my friends and or a family member?~ As always I recommend this to any one that is looking for great product from NETGEAR. “I’ve received this Arlo Q Security Camera free from NETGEAR’s First Look Review Program”
