Amazon offers Arlo Essential Wireless Outdoor Camera at nearly 50% off

Amazon slashes the price of the Arlo Essential Security Wireless Outdoor Camera second generation to just $14.99, providing an affordable option for outdoor home monitoring amid wider market discounts.

Amazon is selling the Arlo Essential Security Wireless Outdoor Camera, second generation, for $14.99, according to Spoofee, down from a regular price of $30. The deal covers the 1080p HD model in white, and Amazon is also offering free shipping with a $35 purchase or to Prime members. Spoofee notes that it may earn a commission from purchases made through its links.

The camera is part of Arlo’s Essential range, which the company says is designed to offer affordable smart home security with features including battery power, person detection, package detection and animated preview. Arlo’s own product pages for the second-generation Essential camera also list a wider set of capabilities on the line, including a 130-degree field of view, two-way audio, an integrated spotlight and colour night vision, although the exact specification depends on the version sold.

Arlo said when it introduced the second-generation Essential cameras and doorbells in 2023 that the outdoor camera was intended to extend battery life and make the range more accessible, with HD and 2K versions at suggested retail prices well above the current Amazon deal. Against that backdrop, the latest offer stands out as a sharp discount for buyers who want basic outdoor monitoring without moving to a higher-priced model. Deal tracker Dealmoon also recorded the same $14.99 price, suggesting the offer is being circulated across more than one retail listing.
