Whether you, your kids, or even your furry friends are home, security is the most important thing. But what's the most crucial part of any reliable security system? A security camera, and it's even better at a discount price.
Below, ZDNet is rounding up the best security camera deals as we approach the 2022 installment of Amazon Prime Day. Prices change daily, and more devices surely will go on sale in the lead-up to and throughout Prime Day, so check back for the latest deals.
With an active Amazon Prime membership, you can secure a five-pack of Blink Outdoor security cameras for $190 off. This price isn't the lowest we've seen, but still a great deal at 50% off nonetheless.
Amazon Prime Day is just beginning and deals are rolling out on some products, including the Arlo Essential Spotlight, which comes with three 1080p cameras. With a 130-degree wide-view angle, you'll be able to deter unwanted people from entering your residence.
While the subscription is not included in the purchase, for $3 per month you can get notifications through the app, receive advanced object detection, and get footage downloaded straight to your phone.
If three cameras are too much, Amazon offers a two-camera kit and single-camera kit for $200 and $100, respectively.
Having a camera that has both waterproof and night-vision capabilities is key when trying to protect your residence. The 3MP camera on this product has infrared, white lights to help keep unwanted guests away from your home.
If you're looking for a cheap security camera with Wi-Fi and app capabilities, I'd pay attention to this deal as we inch closer to Amazon Prime Day.
Who would've thought that we would reach a point where we have cameras shaped as lightbulbs. This 3-megapixel lightbulb security camera connects to your phone and allows you to receive live video as well as notifications when motion is detected.
The Arlo Essential Spotlight camera is the best deal for an Prime Day purchase. But the price has been extremely fluid over the past year, so it could be a deal that's good to get before the price increases.
While price is important, quality is also key when it comes to protecting your home. Our deals are carefully selected with attention to both price and Amazon ratings.
Amazon Prime Day will be held on July 12 and 13. The 48 hour event will begin at 3 am EDT on July 12.
