  These are very good but are expensive. Arlo has better security out of the box but the subscription is more expensive so you will pay considerably more over time.

  The AI smarts of the arlo are pretty damn good also, animal detection etc.

  I have no experience with the newer Arlo, but the company disgusts me. I had a set of 4 original Arlo HD 720P, and later a set of 3 Arlo Pro 1080P. When Netgear hived off Arlo, things went down the toilet - they progressively reduced the video bitrate to a point where the 1080P couldn't be used to recognise anyone you didn't already know - in broad daylight. The quality was shocking. Then they tried to remove the 7 day free (and it was challenged in court in US), then they did an end of life job on a bunch of products (even models that were only a couple of years old, and recently they removed email notifications from the Arlo Pro (and many others). What we bought into was eroded slowly but surely to almost nothing.

  11 months ago I bought a set of 4 Eufy 330 4K with solar, plus 2x EufyCam 2 Pro 2K - the difference is night & day. The Eufy video is soooo much better, the AI built into the Basestation 3 for people, pet & vehicle recognition is great, so I just don't get false alarms anymore. The 4 solar cams are mounted outside where they get a couple of hours of sun and they are all still on 100% battery after 11 months (and some have around 4,000 recordings in that time). Even the two Eufy 2K cameras are sitting at over 60% battery after 11 months but admittedly they don't see too many detections because they are inside. My recordings are all on a 250Gb hard drive inside my base station.

  I have since bought a Eufy E340 dual camera doorbell and it works as well as the cameras. It's battery is sitting on 92% after about 6 weeks (including all the parcels delivered as a result of finding BF bargains on OZBargain).

  Arlo sent me a voucher code about a year ago to get 50% discount off replacements for my EOL products but when I factored in the subscription costs, the more expensive Eufy cams still looked cheaper over a few years.

  I wouldn't touch another Arlo on principle because the company cannot be trusted to "change" what you bought - like pushing through forced firmware updates to the cameras that reduce video recording bitrate to ridiculously low levels just to save them some server data space or removing features that were available when the cameras were new. They might have a slightly better reputation regarding data security (although there has been no reports of dodgy Eufy business for well over a year now since the big blowup), but they are as dodgy as hell regarding hamstringing their products to force you into a dearer subscription or upgrading.
