Poor 1080p from Arlo Pro 2..is this as good as it gets?

Hello!
So after testing the Arlo Q, the Arlo Pro and another brand which I am forgetting now (not NEST), I decided to go with the Arlo Pro 2 as I figured the 1080p would give me the extra IQ I was missing from Arlo Pro.
Well...I am NOT impressed at all..this looks pretty terrible to me and I have it set to best video quality and great signal strenght.

I read some comments that the quality of tihs camera dropped after some firmwares or something like that.
Anyways, I am not sure I want to keep it but the only option I see is NEST which requires drilling holes. 😕

What is your question? I didn't see one.

Any battery-powered wireless camera will be limited in quality to conserve battery life, but I wouldn't call the clip you posted "terrible."

If you want something better you could wait until the new Arlo Ultra 4K camera is released. If you're looking for perfect image quality, then you'll need to buy a hard-wired AC-powered camera.
