Logitech Circle 2 vs. Arlo Pro: Which should you buy?

Being neck-deep in tech, we were early adopters of smart home technology and smart cams are our forte. We live and breathe security cameras, and have gone through several different brands and models to find the best pick for you.

Netgear Arlo Pro

Safe and sound

$260 at Amazon

Pros

Wireless or wired charging
Supports solar panel charging
Local and cloud storage
