I'm sure most potential buyers are looking over and trying to decide which upgrade to get, the Ultra or the Pro 3. After going over everything I believe the Pro 3 will be the better option for me. 2 deciding factors, you have to pay extra for the Ultra 4K. Per Arlo website, cloud storage of 4K resolution video clips requires add-on subscription ($2 per camera) above the normal smart plan price. Also 4K streaming requires the Arlo app and Ultra camera to be on the same local network. I believe that means you probably have to be at home to view actual 4K footage. Steve I'm sure you probably covered this but with Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals, just wanted to make people aware just in case they were on the fence about the two cameras.

I purchased an Arlo Pro 2 system with 10 cameras after unfortunately, having 2 break-ins. A Flat screen TV, an Electric Guitar, and a Video Camera were taken. The burglar was seen on the property, and was spotted later on Main Street. The police said "Yeah, we know who he is, but we can't arrest him unless we see him carrying stuff out, or catch him in the building. Or a picture of him inside and carrying the goods." That's when I researched the different camera systems and decided on the Arlo. I put cameras at all entrances, in the Sanctuary, hallways, library, office, and one watching the Parking lot. The stickers on the windows and doors are probably the greatest deterrent, but it's nice to know that if someone does break in we are notified by phone. We also wanted to protect our children in nurseries and Sunday School rooms, so those areas are also monitored. When I saw how well the Arlo system works, I bought another system with 2 cameras for my daughter and grandson as protection from a former husband. She can arm the cameras at both entrances to her house, to call the police if a person attempts to enter the house, and the base unit has a 4 inch speaker that emits a LOUD siren. When she is out at night, she just looks on her phone to see if anyone is near her house before she gets home, and she can turn on the lights by internet. It gives me peace of mind living 100 miles away, and she is more relaxed.

After watching your video, the improvements that you showed are worth the extra money. All the other reviews only "Talk" about how the 3 is "Mildly" better image quality but not "worth" the extra cost. Your review makes there improvements clear and I will be keeping my 3 and maybe even opting for an Ultra to add to my system. I also love that you included talk about the base. Something nobody else has done. Thank you so much for this excellent video which I saw on Amazon when looking at Arlo Pro 2's.

I recently upgraded to the pro 3 cameras and choose the black, less noticeable in the places that we installed. Having issues with notications but soo far like the bigger viewing area and viewing in color. The tracking makes me dizzy when watching. This is an upgrade from the pro 2 we were getting too much white out. I do miss the 7 day cloud storage and will not be looking forward to having to pay for a subscription. Why not offer a few days of storage. This has been a drawback for a lot of people. These cameras are expensive enough already. These videos have been very informative. Will tell others to watch before they buy.

Thank you for displaying all three of these cameras side by side for the comparison! The Arlo Pro 3 looks great too and I especially love the recharge method on it.

I’ve had the Arlo Pro for several years. But 3yrs ago someone stole most of my cameras. The video quality was ok at that time which was 5-6yrs ago. Just got my mom the Pro3 system. Quality is pretty good, still fine tuning the system so we don’t get false alarms. Had to turn off pet detection and turn down the sensitivity which wasn’t covered in this review. The spot light is pretty bright which I was impressed by given how small this device is. Setting up the custom zones was easy and also helped cut down on false alarms. Personally I’m ordering the Ultra for my house. Quality seems to be much better however due to COVID the Ultra was not available in town and we needed something in the moment for my mom. We did get 1yr free cloud access which I wasn’t aware of. If anything I think Arlo drops the ball advertising stuff like this. Alone with external store on the packaging. When I called Arlo they were super helpful and pleasant to chat with. I would hope that someone takes the time to setup a video showing how these cameras can be properly setup. I think this frustrates many people. I’ve had the system before and along with being tech savvy you can say I was able to trouble shoot this while others like my mom would have returned the product.

Definitely see the difference in all 3 cams when compared. Recently bought a pro 3 add on and put it on my pro system. Ultra would be fantastic to own but you MUST have some kind of subscription to watch videos. Ultra system is way out of most people's price range IMO, so having to pay for extras is not realistic to my budget. Will say that pro 3 when using zoom is still very good with resolution, and can distinguish car tag numbers very well. Did a lot of research before actually buying my system, but then things changed so fast and maybe wish I had waited a little longer to buy. My original purchase was pro that include 3 cams and 3 security lights for close to $400 which I thought was a pretty good deal from HSN. Another note for anyone who is curious, pro 3 is backwards compatible with regular pro base. I made sure before buying. Thanks for the video and the incredible opportunity to maybe get an upgrade!
