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...
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)
$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

Battery powered, Sharp, 1080p footage, Seven days free clip storage
Expensive
The Arlo Pro 2 is an expensive piece of kit, but it's hard to think of any missteps it makes along the way. The footage it captures is excellent, the motion and audio detection works well and it's pleasingly flexible.For many, the sheer number of features...
Easy to set up and install, Excellent control over recording, Cameras work with new Ultra Base Station
No activity zones unless powered
Verdict There are few systems that are as powerful or as flexible as the Arlo Pro 2. Giving you indoor or outdoor coverage, the system can be expanded to use multiple cameras. Image quality is generally very good – although a touch soft during the night –...
