Doesn't record 4K video out-of-the-box, Positioning is important to save on battery life, Magnetic mount makes the camera easy to steal
Thanks to its 4K image sensor, the Arlo Ultra produces some of the most detailed footage we've seen from a security camera. However, the high price means that there are cheaper alternatives that will suit most people better...
Abstract: The OnePlus 7 comes in a couple of configurations. The base model costs £499 and has 6GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage. For £549 you get 8GB of RAM and a massive 256GB of storage. These prices edge outside the mid range, but still give you an awful...

Maybe. If you need a high-quality camera in a location where wires are impractical, by all means, get the Arlo Ultra. The video quality is great, and the speed is better than other wireless solutions. I also like the inclusion of a spotlight on the camera...

The Arlo Ultra isn't cheap. A single camera plus the required hub and one year of free Smart Premier cloud plan is $399.99. An add-on camera costs $299.99. Other packages include multiple camera systems, with the hub and Smart Premier cloud plan, such as...
Abstract: The Arlo Ultra is a wireless 4K security camera with HDR, night vision and an integrated spotlight. It's on the pricey side, but you get very flexible installation options since you don't need to run power or a video cable, and you can choose between 4K...

Abstract: Arlo Technologies recently re-launched its Arlo Ultra 4K wireless security camera after experiencing issues during its initial availability. The widely reported issues, which caused the company to pull back on the launch, involved bugs and connectivity is...
4K video capture, Automatic zoom and tracking, Color night vision, Onboard LED spotlight
Doesn't support 4K in automatic zoom-and-track mode, Incompatible with existeing Arlo base stations
Despite its rocky debut, the Arlo Ultra is another win for Arlo and security DIYers. This 4K security cam shares many features with the Nest Cam IQ Outdoor—which will remain our top pick in outdoor security cameras due to such features as facial recogniti...

High quality design, Quality components, Feature full, Person and object detection, Zoom Tracking subjects
Very expensive, Useless recordings outside Activity Zone, Battery life is poor when lots of activity present, Placement optimisation due to battery life
The Arlo Ultra does not have the most complete ecosystem, but it has great features that make it very fun and practical to use. The Auto-Zoom and Subject Tracking is very cool and makes for a nice demo. However they are sadly not available when in 4K, the...
