The Essential Outdoor XL Wireless 2K Security Camera (2nd Gen) provides robust smart home security with crystal-clear 2K resolution and an impressive 4x longer battery life compared to the Essential Outdoor Camera. You can zoom in 12x to capture intricate details like license plates. Receive instant alerts and view live video directly on your phone when motion is detected. Deter unwelcome guests with the integrated spotlight or activate the integrated siren automatically or manually through the Arlo Secure App.¹ Even in low-light conditions, Color night vision reveals important details, and noise-canceling audio ensures clear two-way communication with visitors. Setup is simple, connecting directly to Wi-Fi in minutes, and its extended-life rechargeable battery and weather-resistant design offer flexible, wire-free installation anywhere around your home. Advanced AI identifies relevant objects like people, packages, vehicles, and animals. Create activity zones to focus alerts on specific areas, and rich notifications enable you to view clips on your smartphone's lock screen for quick action like the one-tap emergency response that allows immediate dispatch of police, fire, or medical responders. All your recorded clips are securely stored and accessible for 30 days in the cloud.¹

Yes, I'd recommend this product.
Changing phone has been much easier than expected. New phone seems to work pretty much the same way the old (very old) one did and virtually everything has transferred from the old phone to the new one.
I’m honestly so impressed with this camera!

I’m honestly so impressed with this camera!
The video quality is amazing — super clear, even at night thanks to the color night vision. The audio is crystal clear too, and I love that it has two-way talk. If someone comes to the door, I get a notification right on my phone and can speak to them directly through the camera. It’s so convenient and gives me real peace of mind. Highly recommend this for anyone looking for a reliable and modern home security system!

Misleading description. It says it has screen protector. It does not. What I understand when I read that is that there is a full cover.
Essential Armor Case - Great quality for the price.

Yes, I'd recommend this product.
Got it on sale for 20 bucks which is really good for a UAG case as they are pricey lol no complaints seems like a nice case more on the flexible but still firm side so if you’re wanted rigid this isn’t it. Overall I’m satisfied with purchase
I love UAG

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had been looking for a camera for my front porch and I received this Arlo security camera from Infuenster for free to try and review. It's helped me tremendously with keeping an eye on my yard and dogs. I love this camera and I bought another for my daughter and she loves it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very easy to install wherever you want it. Having it set up through my phone is a great plus for when im at work. The motion light is great for light to see, not using my porch light as often.
