A Toy until Netgear gets Serious
on September 4, 2016
Posted by: txbestbuyer
from Dallas, Texas
I really wanted this system to work. I liked the wireless and easy setup and it seemed to have good reviews. But in reality, The motion detection is a huge miss. I understand that the camera is in sleep mode to preserve battery life and wakes up when motion is detected. But by the time it wakes to record it's too late, the subject has already moved more than halfway through the shot. And I tried ever angle and distance. By the way, no 800 number support. They do have a good forum for finding answers but would have been nice to discuss my issues with someone over the phone. The final straw is when I placed the camera in my garage thinking surely it would pick up someone walking into the garage and walking right past the camera. Nope, same issue with camera waking up too late.
I will give it high markets for just about everything else, The setup i's ridiculously easy, you pair them with router then attach to these metal mounts. The cameras have embedded magnets which make it really flexible for tweaking.
The App is very slick. It is very easy to use and navigate. I really believe Netgear has the foundation for a good system, but something needs to change to improve the motion detection and recording functions.
If you want the cameras to monitor what's happening inside your home, then this system could work. Through the app you can go to any camera and request a live feed.
But for monitoring your home's exterior, no, this system does not work.

Yes, as everyone is stating the campaign does end quickly but getting through it was not short on fun. There were times that I felt totally immersed in the environment. The graphics are simply incredible. The level of detail is incredible. This is a top notch game. A must have for FPS enthusiasts. High replay-ability and great, great online play.
What's great about it: Photo quality graphics, excellent gameplay
What's not so great: Campaign is a little short

Average game, so-so on the fun

It's not all bad, just has a short lifespan on the fun. I ddi enjoy the ability to knock other racers out. Nothing like taking a swing at a guy on a motorcycle at 80 mph. The tracks are imaginative. Rent if for a week and if you enjoyed the gameplay for a week, come back to best buy and purchase it.
What's great about it: Nice graphics, excellent speed representation
What's not so great: actually gets kind of boring

This was the first game I purchased along with my PS3. I wasn't sure what to expect and was VERY satisfied. The gameplay is excellent and exciting. The weapons are simply amazing and fun to use. The online play is just as amazing. Bottomline, a great game to add to your collection.
What's great about it: Great story, great visuals, excellent weapons, fun
What's not so great: 24 hrs in a day
I would recommend this to a friend!

Can you turn the system off or on from a smartphone?

Yes you can. Th Arlo App is very nice. You can go to any of your cameras and turn them off AND you can turn them back on, very cool feature. You can also request a live feed to see what is going on at that moment, The camera can also send notifications when motion is detected.
