Indoor Security Camera Deals

The TP-Link Tapo C120 is a steal for under $25. This little camera punches way above its price tag with sharp 2K video, color night vision, and built-in spotlights that light up your yard when motion’s detected. It’s weatherproof, so you can stick it indoors or outdoors, and the setup is a breeze. The motion detection is smart, too, distinguishing between people, pets, and vehicles, which cuts down on false alerts. Our expert points out in our TP-Link Tapo C120 review from 2023 that the camera “is loaded with features usually only found on more expensive models.” That’s why it received an “Outstanding” rating and also became the Editors’ Choice winner. If you want a budget-friendly cam that doesn’t skimp on features, this is it.

For slightly over $25, the TP-Link Kasa Spot Pan Tilt packs serious value. The 2K video looks crisp whether you’re checking on pets or keeping an eye on deliveries. What really rocks is the full 360° coverage — just tap in the app to pan/tilt and see every corner of the room. Motion tracking works great, and you can store footage locally with a microSD card. It’s rated “Excellent” in our review. Although the pan isn’t the smoothest we have seen, for the price this camera is a steal.

Smart Lock Deals

Per our 2020 review, “If you’re looking for a stylish smart lock that is easy to install and offers broad third-party support, the August Wi-Fi Smart Lock is your best bet and our Editors’ Choice.” It’s one of the smallest models from the company and features complete Wi-Fi support, which gives you total control over locking and unlocking remotely. It works with Alexa, Google, and HomeKit, so you can use voice commands or set up automations easily. All these fantastic features earned the lock an “Outstanding” rating. Plus, its compact design blends right in, making it a sleek and smart addition to any door.

The Aqara Smart Lock U100 is a reliable choice if you appreciate the Apple ecosystem, earning it an “Excellent” rating in our review. It syncs effortlessly with HomeKit, allowing you to unlock the door using Siri, a fingerprint, or the keypad. Moreover, if you’re locked out with a dead battery, the USB-C port comes to the rescue, or you can use the simple old keys. Though remote access needs an Apple hub, it’s a smooth addition to any smart home that’s now discounted by 41% off.
