Using them for 2 years - very unhappy.
1. Every couple months hub will just stop working and need to be power switched
2. camera quality are sub par - cann get a clear picture of the porch pirate's face
3. worst one - the app is horrible. From the moment you get notification that someone is on your front porch (notification is almost instant - good) you will need 20 seconds before you can get live feed from camera on your phone. And that's on fast WiFi connection. And only if app works at all - often (every couple days) it just won't work - no recordings, won't play recordings, thumbnail preview on camera can be few weeks old
4. speaking something from camera speaker - plus another 10-15 seconds if it will work at all.
I'm so pissed with them. There is only thing they do good - giving you a recording of someone stealing your package while you deprerately trying to make app work.
Same my dashcams are 4K and I may drop it down to 2K. A dashcam needs to be clear enough to pickup a license plate number. I don't know how much detail would be needed though indoors. Picked up anyway they can go back if I really can't use them.
I surprised that your local cops actually make an attempt to catch the bad guys. Cops barely made the effort to file the case for me or my parents, separate incidents and different cities (both middle class areas). Maybe it's just FL
I have their doorbell, and I was going to get some cameras and maybe a flood light. I'm reconsidering after the privacy issues.
I went the Ring Doorbell but bought a bunch of the Euf.y outdoor floodlights and spot cameras (with solar) when they were on sale.
Aren't these outdoor cameras from eu.fy fine as long as the cameras points away from your house?

I don't think the monthly service fee is required, just if you want to use the features like cloud storage
I have an older arlo camera and I get 7 days and motion alerts for free, so I'm hoping this is the same way
The newer cameras require subscriptions. I also have the gen2 with no fees, but the video quality is lower and night vision isn't very good. That's the trade off
If you already have an Arlo system and want to add 3 more cameras, this is a pretty decent deal. But if you're starting from scratch, I'd personally look elsewhere than Arlo.
I use to have an Arlo Pro (1080p) setup at my house and my ex's place (both outdoors only). We set it up so we can see each other's cameras and alerts. We share 3 kids (and yes, we get along great… for the sake of the kids). They were good daytime cameras and mediocre at best at night. But it served its purpose.
Anyways, we started having problems with our Arlo after about a year. Many times the cameras wouldn't record or send alerts when objects were moving in view of them. Cameras suddenly were no longer showing up in the system… then her base station suddenly disappeared from the app. Kept having to reset the system. It was pretty frustrating.
Decided to replace the Arlo. Looked at multiple different systems… Blink, Nest, Eufy, etc. The Eufy 4K system was on sale on Amazon. Bought it and set the systems up at mine and my Ex's. The Eufy is wasaaayyyyyyy better than the Arlo that we had. Day AND night video feeds are way better. More consistent picking up objects and sending alerts. Added the Doorbell and Floodlights. No need for subscription service if you only need the last 7 days of videos saved. The Doorbell changes the outdoor Chime depending on the holiday season. For example, on Halloween, when you press the button, instead of the standard "ding dong", the doorbell let out a scream. Trick or Treaters loved it.
I'm sure there are many who love their Arlo System. I just had bad luck. I'm also sure people like their Nests and Blinks… but after 2 years, I'm super satisfied with my Eufy System.
P.s. I had the Arlo before they required a subscription service… when it was free. Not sure if there's a free service for Arlo.
