To recap
The Arlo Ultra is a step-up in quality, with a great wide-angle lens and 4K HDR capture too. However, it’s an expensive camera and there are a lot of hoops to jump through to get to 4K - including the need to subscribe to get the most from it. There’s no doubt it’s a great camera that outshines most of the competition, but it’s still one that needs serious contemplation based on its cover price alone.
