help Arlo Pro 5 Floodlight FAQ

Is there an Arlo Pro 5 Floodlight camera with 4K recording?

Arlo's standard Pro 5S is a 2K spotlight camera, not a 4K floodlight model. Arlo has sold a Pro 3 Floodlight Camera and separate 4K Ultra cameras, so shoppers should verify the exact product name before ordering.

Does the Arlo Pro 5S require an Arlo SmartHub?

The Pro 5S can connect directly to compatible Wi-Fi networks, so a hub is not required for basic cloud-connected operation. A compatible Arlo SmartHub can add options such as local storage and integration with an existing Arlo system.

Can the Arlo Pro 5S record in color at night?

Yes, its integrated spotlight can illuminate nearby subjects for color night footage. It also has infrared LEDs for conventional monochrome night vision when visible lighting is not desired.

Which features require an Arlo Secure subscription?

Cloud recording and advanced detection features are generally tied to an Arlo Secure plan after any included trial ends. Basic live viewing and two-way audio can still work without cloud recording, while local-storage options require compatible Arlo hardware.
