Amazon slashes prices on Arlo’s Pro, Pro 2, and Pro 3 wireless security cameras

Arlo wire-free security camera systems have populated the top spot of our Best Security Cameras list for several years. Each new generation of Arlo cameras, especially the Arlo Pro models, bumps up the protection and video quality levels. Starting the new year and new decade, Amazon slashed the prices on select Arlo Pro wireless security systems.

We’ve found the best discounts on Arlo wire-free security camera systems from Amazon in three generations, the Arlo Pro, Pro 2, and Pro 3. Amazon’s best deals are for 2-camera systems that include a required base unit and the cameras. We’ve included add-on cameras for each model, which Amazon also has on sale. Arlo supports mixed camera models in the same network, so if you already have one or more Arlo security cameras installed, you can add any of the cameras below. Whether you’re setting your first camera system or adding an existing Arlo configuration, these six deals can help you save up to $187.

Arlo Pro 3 smart home security camera systems

Arlo Pro 3 Wire-Free Security 2-Camera System — $61 off


The Arlo Pro 3 Wire-Free Security 2-Camera System is the latest generation, the model Digital Trends recently named the best wireless security camera for 2020. The new features in the Pro 3 cameras include 2K resolution video, a 160-degree viewing angle, HDR, and both color and black and white night vision. There’s also a new integrated spotlight in each Arlo Pro 3 camera.

After you connect the Arlo base station to your home Wi-Fi network, you can place the wireless cameras anywhere in reach of the Wi-Fi signal. Magnetic mounts make installation easy and fast. Each camera supports two-way talk, and the base station has a siren.

In addition to the Arlo mobile app, you can also control the Arlo Pro 3 with Alexa or Google Assistant to direct send alerts, view live video feeds and stored clips, talk with visitors, and turn on the spotlight. The Arlo Pro 3 system comes with three months of Arlo Smart cloud storage service with 30-day recording storage.

Normally priced at $500, the Arlo Pro 3 Wire-Free Security 2-Camera System is $439 during this sale.

Arlo Pro 3 Wire-Free Security Add-On Camera — $15 off

Arlo Pro 3 – Wire-Free Security Add-On Camera
The Arlo Pro 3 Wire-Free Security Add-On Camera is an easy way to add a latest generation Arlo camera to an existing Arlo configuration. Usually $200, the Arlo Pro 3 Wire-Free Security Add-On Camera is discounted to $185 for this sale.

Arlo Pro 2 smart home security camera systems

Arlo Pro 2 Wireless Home Security 2-Camera System — $187 off


The previous Arlo Pro 2 Wireless Home Security 2-Camera System is still a robust setup that’s enough for many homeowners, especially with its reduced sales price. The weatherproof and wire-free Pro 2 cameras record in 1080 full HD video with a 130-degree field of view, night vision, and two-way talk. If you don’t care about the Pro 3’s 2K video and spotlight features, the Pro 2 two-camera system is the sweet spot among the three generations in this sale.

Regularly priced $480, the Arlo Pro 2 Wireless Home Security 2-Camera System is reduced to $293 for this sale. If you want a very capable security camera system but don’t need the latest and greatest, snap up this excellent deal.

Arlo Pro 2 Add-on Camera — $90 off


Amazon also cut the price of the Arlo Pro 2 Add-on Camera, and it’s a better deal than the other models. Ordinarily $220, the Arlo Pro 2 Add-on Camera is $130 during this sale.

Arlo Pro smart home security camera systems

Arlo Pro Wireless Home Security 2-Camera System — $155 off


The Arlo Pro Wireless Home Security 2-Camera System with 720p HD video, 110-degree field of view, night vision, and 2-way audio is an excellent system, with motion detection, and indoor and outdoor operation. The sale price on the Arlo Pro two-camera kit is $28 lower than the Pro 2 system with two cameras, but the extra cost-savings may not be worth losing the Pro 2’s higher resolution and greater field of view.

Instead of the usual $420 price, Amazon reduced the price of the Arlo Pro Wireless Home Security 2-Camera System to $265 during this sale.

Arlo Pro Add-on Camera — $45 off


The Arlo Pro Add-on Camera is normally priced at $190, but you can get it on sale for $145. Because the Arlo Pro 2 Add-on Camera is on sale for just $130, there’s no compelling argument for this model unless the Pro 2 Add-on is out of stock.

Do you need a subscription for a Ring doorbell or camera?
The Ring Video Doorbell 3 installed near a door.

Anyone shopping for a DIY home security system has probably stumbled upon Ring. The company has an ever-growing lineup of cameras and video doorbells that are consistently ranked among the best available -- and since they're easy to set up and offer tons of functionality, it's no surprise they're so popular.

One thing to keep in mind when looking at Ring products is that you'll be on the hook for more than just the sticker price. Ring offers a monthly subscription service known as Ring Protect. Many of the best features for its cameras and video doorbells are locked behind this subscription plan, meaning owners who don't sign up will be missing out on important functionality.

Can you use a Blink Outdoor Camera without a subscription?

For security and peace of mind around your home, a Blink Outdoor Camera is one of the most popular choices for keeping an eye on your property. The outdoor cameras have features like motion detection, a Live View which lets you see what is going on at your property right from your smartphone, and an Activity Zones option that lets you choose which areas of your property you want to record -- which is handy if you live near a busy street where cars could constantly set off annoying motion detection notifications. The recently released Blink Outdoor 4 has improved on these features to make them even better than the previous Blink Outdoor 3.

Like most home security systems, Blink operates on a subscription plan, with a monthly charge starting at $3 to use the service. But if you don't want to pay for the charge, you might want to try using the cameras without the subscription -- though there will be some severe limitations if you do.
