Industry-Leading 180-Degree Field-of-View with Square 1:1 Aspect Ratio Delivers Most Complete Front-Entry Protection, With Direct-to-Mobile Video Calls for Faster Response
SINGAPORE – Media OutReach – 16
February 2021 – Arlo Technologies, Inc. (NYSE:
ARLO), one of the leading internet-connected camera brands, today announced the launch of
its all-new Arlo Essential Video Doorbell Wire-Free which brings the award-winning features of
its popular Wired Video Doorbell to an easy-to-install, wire-free,
battery-powered design. Arlo’s latest front-entry solution — which joins a
robust ecosystem of home security products and services — captures what conventional
video doorbells can’t. An industry-leading, 180-degree viewing angle with a square,
1:1 aspect ratio ensures users can see packages on the ground or visitors from
head-to-toe on their mobile devices. HD video resolution combined with
direct-to-mobile video calls, clear, two-way audio and personalised alerts, allow
users to quickly reply to guests or take action. Able to connect directly to
WiFi, the latest solution can be powered by its rechargeable battery1
or be hardwired for continuous charging2. With a RRP of S$329, the Arlo
Essential Video Doorbell Wire-Free is now available at
major retailers including Harvey Norman, Challenger as well
as the official Arlo stores on Lazada
Singapore and
Shopee
Singapore.
“In today’s world, having a smart video
doorbell at your front door is more valuable than ever,” said Brad Little, Vice President & Managing Director
APAC. “Unlike other video doorbells that
can lag in response time, our new Essential Video Doorbell Wire-Free leverages
the latest hardware and software advancements for swift, comprehensive
monitoring. Industry-leading picture and audio quality combined with our
AI-based subscription service, Arlo Smart, enable complete front door
protection. Users can receive smart notifications and secure, simple access via
the Arlo App, allowing them to quickly and easily live stream or respond to
guests.”
Direct-to-mobile video calls, clear, two-way
audio and pre-recorded quick-reply messages all enable convenient, in-the-moment
communication with visitors. Traditionally, video doorbells require users to
take multiple steps to view and respond to guests once receiving a
notification, causing delays where a user could easily miss their visitor. The Arlo
Essential Video Doorbell Wire-Free solves this problem by sending a live, HD
video call right to the user’s smartphone once the doorbell is pressed,
enabling them to quickly take action by deploying a response.
