  • Advanced scheduling and geofencing controls, 7 days of free cloud storage, Optional local backup via USB, Backward compatible with Arlo Pro, Scalable multi-camera plans for businesses
  • App interface a little convoluted
  • Yes. There are cheaper alternatives out there, but we truly have not found another smart camera that offers the same power, versatility, cloud storage, and value as the Netgear Arlo Pro 2...

  • Precio, Tapa de goma puertos microUSB de las cámaras IP no ajusta de forma correcta

  • Les batteries rechargeables, La qualité Full HD, Les zones de détection paramétrables, L'enregistrement cloud gratuit durant 7 jours, Les possibilités de réglages et de personnalisation, La certification IP65 pour un usage en extérieur
  • L'absence d'autres accessoires (détecteur d'ouverture, etc.) pour constituer un véritable système d'alarme, Le potentiel souci d'installation
