Our take on the Arlo Essential Pan Tilt 2K Wired Outdoor Security Camera
The Arlo Essential Pan Tilt 2K is a wired outdoor camera that rotates to cover a wide area from one mount. It records 2K video, has a built-in spotlight and color night vision, and uses a two-way audio link through the Arlo app. It suits renters and homeowners who want one camera to watch a yard or driveway without running several units. Against fixed 2K Arlo cameras it trades a wider field of view for a motorized head; against battery Arlo models it needs a constant power cable but never needs charging.
