All-New Arlo Essential Video Doorbell Wire-Free Now Available

SAN JOSE, Calif., Dec. 7, 2020 /CNW/ -- Arlo Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: ARLO), a leading internet-connected camera brand, today announced the availability of its all-new Arlo Essential Video Doorbell Wire-Free. The latest offering brings the award-winning features of the popular Arlo Wired Video Doorbell to an easy-to-install, wire-free, battery-powered design. An industry-leading, 180-degree viewing angle with a square, 1:1 aspect ratio ensures users can see packages on the ground or visitors from head-to-toe on their mobile devices. HD video resolution combined with direct-to-mobile video calls, clear, two-way audio and personalized alerts, allow users to quickly reply to guests or take action. Able to connect directly to WiFi, the latest solution can be powered by its rechargeable battery¹ or hardwired for continuous charging². The Arlo Essential Video Doorbell Wire-Free is available now at BestBuy.com, Amazon.com and Arlo.com for an MSRP of $199.99.

"Smart video doorbells are a vital component of home security, especially heading into the holiday season when deliveries are more prevalent," said Tejas Shah, SVP of Product and CIO at Arlo. "The new Essential Video Doorbell Wire-Free provides comprehensive monitoring thanks to industry-leading picture and audio quality combined with Arlo Smart, our AI-based subscription service. Smart notifications enhanced by secure, simple access via the Arlo App, enable users to  quickly and easily live stream their front entryway, respond to delivery personnel, greet guests and even contact emergency services when needed."  

Direct-to-mobile video calls, clear, two-way audio and pre-recorded quick-reply messages all enable convenient, in-the-moment communication with visitors. Traditionally, video doorbells require users to take multiple steps to view and respond to guests once receiving a notification, causing delays where a user could easily miss their visitor. The Arlo Essential Video Doorbell Wire-Free solves this problem by sending a live, HD video call right to the user's smartphone once the doorbell is pressed, enabling them to quickly take action by deploying a response.

Features of the all-new Arlo Essential Video Doorbell Wire-Free include:

• 180° Viewing Angle: Optimized for the front door with a 1:1 aspect ratio so you can see a person from head to toe or a package on the ground
• Direct-to-Mobile Video Call: Calls your phone directly so you never miss a visitor

• Motion Detection and Alerts: Receive alerts when motion is detected

• More Ways to Answer: Quick Reply Messages enable users to play pre-recorded messages for instant response to guests
• Visitor Messaging: Guests can leave you a voice message if you're unable to answer the door, and you can listen remotely at your convenience
• HD Video with HDR: Capture vivid detail in bright and dark areas with HDR
• Night Vision: See who's at your door at night, even without a light on
• Weather Resistant: Designed to withstand heat, cold, rain or sun
• Platform Compatibility: Works with Alexa, Google Assistant and IFTTT for easy interaction, automation, and control
• Direct to WiFi: Connects directly to WiFi for simple setup allowing it to function as a standalone home security solution without the need for a separate base station
• Built-In Smart Siren: Trigger your siren automatically or manually from the Arlo app during an event
• Silent Mode: Temporarily disable incoming calls, Arlo Chime melodies, and/or traditional chime rings
• Notifications that Matter: Get alerts when your Essential Video Doorbell Wire-Free spots people, vehicles, animals or a package with Arlo Smart via an included three-month trial with rolling 30-day cloud recordings
