I would recommend Arlo Pro cameras. They're cheaper than Arlo Pro 2 but 99% as good, if not better in some circumstances. The benefits of the Arlo Pro 2 only really come to light when it is continuously AC powered. With that, you get 3s lookback (prerecording) and motion zones.

Arlo Pro are arguably the best under low light

Avoid the Arlo HD wirefree cameras that run on CR123A batteries. The batteries are a pain and these cameras are not as good at detecting motion and also have a lag between motion and starting recording
