Arlo Pro 5S 2K Spotlight Camera - Wireless Home Security Camera with Spotlight, Color Night Vision, Dual-Band Wi-Fi & 2-Way Audio - White, 4 Pack, VMC4460P

The media could not be loaded. I’ve been using it for a few weeks now and I’m genuinely so impressed with the quality, ease of use, and the peace of mind it gives me every day.From the moment I unboxed it, I could tell this was a high-quality product. The setup was quick and painless—just download the Arlo app, follow the instructions, and it connects to Wi-Fi in minutes. The magnetic mount made installation so easy. I didn’t need any tools, and I was able to position it perfectly by my front door within minutes.The video quality is crystal clear—like, shockingly good. The 2K HDR resolution makes a huge difference compared to other cameras I’ve tried, and the color night vision is amazing. Even in low light, I can see everything clearly, in full color, not just blurry black and white. The spotlight also activates with motion and lights up the area really well, which adds another layer of security.I also love the dual-band Wi-Fi feature—it keeps the connection strong, and I haven’t had any signal issues at all. The two-way audio is super handy too. I’ve used it to talk to delivery drivers and even told someone to leave a package in a safe spot while I was away.What I really appreciate is that it just works. No glitches, no delays, no constant reconnecting. I get motion alerts instantly and can check in on the live feed from anywhere. It makes me feel so much safer when I’m home alone or away for the weekend.Honestly, this camera has everything you could want—great quality, smart features, easy setup, and reliability. I’ll definitely be buying another one for the backyard soon. If you’re looking for a dependable, high-performance home security camera, the Arlo Pro 5S 2K is 100% worth it.

This Arlo Pro 5S 2K camera is everything I needed and more. The video quality is super crisp (you can definitely tell it’s 2K), and the color night vision is so much better than the usual grainy black-and-white. Setup was fast, the wireless design is super convenient, and the battery lasts longer than expected. I also love how clean it looks mounted—it’s giving high-tech but make it cute. Highly recommend if you want a smart security upgrade that actually does what it promises.

After having this Arlo system (I actually have 5 battery powered cameras, a wired doorbell camera and a wired floodlight camera) for couple weeks now I am comfortable stating that I regret this purchase. I’ll just cover 2 of the complete deal killer issues here, but there are additional problems with the Arlo system.First, a couple of the cameras will not stay connected and will not reconnect. I have zero connection issues with other devices on my wifi network and my connection speed to the Internet tests at just under 1gb per second. My doorbell camera will just randomly be offline and not work as does the wired floodlight camera. At this point the floodlight camera will not reconnect. I spent 2 hours of my time going through all of Arlo’s troubleshooting instructions before calling their customer support, which is apparently all based in India. I then spent nearly an additional 2 hours on the phone with their support doing basically the same thing.With this camera, it is located outside at 14’ high over my garage doors, so it’s not exactly convenient to spend a good hour’s worth hanging at the top of a ladder in below freezing weather. Regardless, I followed their instructions for nearly 2 hours which included sending them several screenshots verifying what errors their app was showing. Now I’m waiting until some other support people up their chain of command can call me back. Clearly there is either a problem with this camera or their software; neither of which I can control. I feel that I have wasted far more of my time than I should because their product has failed. It’s bad enough that this product lasted less than 2 weeks but now I am forced to literally waste hours and hours of my time speaking with people in India. I am done with this camera/floodlight.Now the worst problem with the Arlo product. One of the selling points is that, with their paid subscription, their camera software can detect the difference between a person, a vehicle, an animal and a package. Sadly, this is not true. I’ve now wasted hours on the phone with their customer support in India trying to resolve this problem with zero success.When “arming” their camera security system at night (or any other time for that matter) I do not need to have alerts sent to me because a squirrel ambled by at 3am. I also have outdoor pets that will also walk past the cameras all throughout the night and those too cause the Arlo system to send me a false alert that I have someone walking around home. It didn’t take but a night or two before we had to disable the alarm system all night to stop the constant false alerts.In order to try and prevent these constant false alarms, customer support had me turn the sensitivity down so far that the cameras won’t detect a person walking up to my door. The lady in India seemed to think this was a good solution! Then the other “solution” was to stop the system from contacting me when an alert was triggered. Again, this too renders the system useless.The addition problem with the Arlo system is that all these false alarms really kills the battery life of the cameras. Their solution to this problem is for me to buy a $60 solar panel for each camera. This adds enough to the already higher priced cameras that they are not competitive with the pricing.By the time you take into consideration the hardware problems, the connectivity issues, the software problems and difficult to understand customer support based in India, these factors totally erase any potential attributes to buying this wireless security system. Because of these problems, along with other problems I don’t have time to type out here, I see no value in the Arlo system at this time. I wish Arlo functioned as advertised but, sadly, it does not and I certainly cannot recommend this product and their required service.

I’ve been using this Arlo Pro 5S for a few days now and I’m really impressed! The video quality is super sharp, even at night thanks to the color night vision. Setup was quick and straightforward, and I love that it connects easily to my Wi-Fi without any issues. The spotlight is bright enough to light up my driveway, and the 2-way audio is a great feature when I need to communicate with someone outside. Battery life has also been solid so far. Definitely recommend if you’re looking for a reliable and easy-to-use security camera!

Spotlight is a little weak and it’s hard to tell when the camera decides to charge off the connected solar panel, but it has a great field of view and the video quality is great. Installation is easy. Very happy with the purchase. Only complaints are that it takes a while to load the live view, sometimes even stalls, and the camera won’t adhere to the activity zones that are set up. For example I set up the activity zones just inside the perimeter of our yard but it keeps picking up cars and people walking on the sidewalk and my phone blips throughout the day because of it, but otherwise a great camera.

The Arlo Pro 5S 2K Spotlight Camera delivers impressive video quality with sharp 2K resolution, vibrant color night vision, and a powerful spotlight that adds extra security. Its dual-band Wi-Fi connection ensures fast, reliable performance, while the built-in smart features like person, package, and vehicle detection work seamlessly with Arlo Secure. Setup is quick and easy, and the sleek, weather-resistant design makes it ideal for both indoor and outdoor use. Battery life is solid, and integration with Alexa and Google Assistant adds convenience. Overall, it’s a top-tier choice for anyone looking to upgrade their home security system.
