Not ready for prime time!

I have three Arlo multi-site camera systems and am an Arlo fan, but this doorbell video camera has some BIG design flaws. The delay time when connecting the phone and the doorbell is quite large. It was practically useless about 50% of the time. The mounting brackets and corner brackets are made of plastic, which tends to bend too much, especially when installing moldings. Gypsum naturally has small bumps and small bumps. If the bracket is bent, the camera is not attached to the bracket. Even if the mounting screws are NOT EXACTLY flush, the camera will not mount in the bracket. It's even worse when you need to use a corner mount. Due to this design, the mounting screws protrude on one side, which also prevents the camera from being attached to the mount. It seems that this product was launched in a hurry before the holidays, and the design was not thought out. It's back! that this product was launched in a hurry before the holidays and the design was not thought out. It's back! that this product was launched in a hurry before the holidays and the design was not thought out. It's back!
