Does anyone know if there were any design changes to the base station for the Arlo Pro 2? I just purchased the 4 cameras with base station and the picture on Best Buys website show a different base station than the one I received.

It looks like the smaller, round base sold by Best Buy in the 1-camera Arlo Pro 2 configuration is the VMB3500.  The other Arlo Pro 2 configurations come with the larger VMB4000 base station.  The VMB3500 lacks the siren of the VMB4000 (per this) and also appears not compatible with the new Arlo Pro 3 add-on cameras.

In addition, I believe that all Pro/Pro 2 system should now be coming with the VMB4500 base (might be wrong on this). 

 

I just checked the Best Buy site and did a quick search on "Arlo". The Pro and Pro 2 systems shown as the 2nd and 3rd results show the proper base.
