Arlo Pro 4 doesn't need a base station??

[AndreasDidier]

I really want to get Arlo Pro 4 but the no base station thing worries me? How do you feel about all the processing power housed in each camera?

I don't really want the ultra but I may need to for a base station?

There's no processing difference in the camera between using your WiFi for the camera connection vs. using a base or hub. Use of a hub does give you some added functionality such as local recordings but that doesn't affect how the camera works. So, if you want to use a hub with the Pro 4, that's fine. If you are ok with the WiFi connection, that's also fine.
