Arlo Pro 6 Wireless Security Camera

The Arlo Pro 6 is CNET's top pick for 2026, and it earns that title with the most intelligent detection system in any home camera. It distinguishes between people, animals, vehicles, and packages — sending specific alerts so you're not bombarded by every passing car. 2K HDR video captures sharp detail day and night, and the built-in spotlight enables full-color night vision. The magnetic mount goes anywhere in seconds, and the rechargeable battery lasts months. Works with Alexa, Google, and Apple HomeKit. Local storage via USB is free; cloud plans are optional.
