Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a subscription for the Arlo Pro 6?

Live streaming and basic alerts work without one. Features such as 60-day video history, 24/7 emergency response and activity zones need an Arlo Secure plan. A free 1-month Arlo Secure Early Warning System trial is included.

Is the Arlo Pro 6 the same as the Pro 5S?

No. The Pro 6 is the 6th-generation 2025 model that Arlo's US store currently lists. The Pro 5S no longer appears among the cameras listed on Arlo's US security camera page, so we review the Pro 6.

Can I swap the battery?

Yes. The rechargeable battery is swappable, which helps with cameras mounted in hard-to-reach spots. Arlo also sells a Pro XL with longer battery life.

Is $124.99 the regular price?

No. On October 26, 2026 Arlo's product page showed $124.99 as part of a limited-time Halloween sale of up to 57% off. Check the current price before buying.
