Hello everyone,

 

I ordered the Arlo ultra station + 3 cameras from Amazon. I actually bought 2 sets and they were all packaged in the plastic wrap; however, when I went to go peel off the plastic on the lens/face of the camera I noticed a lot of microfractures. It is very hard to see unless you shine light on it at a certain angle. Pictures will be attached to this post. It was on all 6 cameras. Anyone else notices these lines? I am only afraid that water will get into it and damage my camera system or the battery. Unfortunately, the post will only let me upload one picture.

I'm not at all sure they are fractures but just some scratches due to manufacturing processes. Obviously, any particular camera may have real issues but only testing will tell. You have a warranty should an actual problem show up.

 

I haven't closely inspected any of my cameras (original, Pro/2/3 and Ultra) but I've had no problems in heavy rain or very moist conditions.
