The editors liked
The cameras and related Arlo app work well and allow advanced features like person alerts and motion zones (if you subscribe to the Arlo Smart cloud service)
1080p video and 720p stills are reasonable quality when you can achieve it
The editors didn't like
$480 is pricey for a two-camera kit. It's difficult to angle the cameras unless you mount and attach them to the included magnetic bases (which requires a more permanent install). Alexa and Google Assistant integration didn't work well in our testing
No compelling reason to buy it over other brands - except perhaps the brand

The Netgear Arlo Pro 2 is one of the best security systems around that offer users a wide assortment of configurations and more importantly, very easy setup and access from anywhere in the world. However where this shines from its competitors is that it d...

So, in an apartment (particularly a rather secure one), I simply wouldn't recommend Arlo cameras for security reasons; it's just not needed. So, no, I wouldn't buy it – I don't need it. We do have a couple of IP cameras around, so we can view things from...

While Arlo Pro 2 isn't revolutionary, it does upgrade perhaps the best wire-free security camera solution to 1080p, making some already good, even better...
IP65 waterproof rating, Are indoor and outdoor cameras, Wire-free
Unimpressive battery life, Overpriced,
The Arlo Pro aren't bad by any means, but certainly a tad overpriced with a few features that are behind standards. However, they are wireless and can be placed inside and outside with its IP65 waterproof rating. Built with 720p image quality, night visio...
Easy to install, Can record video to USB storage, Excellent camera control via app, Magnetic mount makes installation easy
Activity zones require permanent power or paid-for Arlo Smart cloud subscription, Night-time footage is fuzzy
Although the Arlo Pro 2 doesn't have the headline image quality of the Arlo Ultra, its lower price makes it more attractive, plus you get similar wire-free installation. The excellent app gives you fine control over your system, and free cloud storage is...

The Hue is a top-shelf bulb. If only its app were as good.Who needs a hub? LIFX's top-shelf bulb went on a diet, and despite slimming down, it's managed to improve on nearly all of its features.Every upscale home should have dimmers for lighting control...
100 percent wireless, Weather-resistant, 1080p video, 24/7 recording with a local storage option, 130-degree field of view
Expensive, Battery life depends on strong Wi-Fi, Lights require their own bridge
Most people who are shopping for a DIY security camera system want one that works great when they need it to work and is simple to set up and use. Chances are, they also don't want to spend $1,000 or more to have someone come to the house and do it for th...
