      Best Security Cameras on Amazon 2022

      Photo Illustration by Scouted/The Daily Beast/Amazon.

      Security cameras aren’t just for people wanting to keep tabs. I use mine to mostly see which sunspot in my apartment the dog is laying in and to make sure nothing happened to the place while on vacation.

      Over the years, security cameras have gotten more and more affordable for the everyday homeowner (or renter). You don’t need a whole system with wiring to stay safe. Whether you want to keep your house secure or just want to spy on pets while you’re away, these are the best, easy-to-set-up security cameras you can get on Amazon.

      FOR ADDED BENEFITS

      Wyze Cam Pan

      This is the camera I have in my apartment and I can’t emphasize enough how impressive it is. For the price, you get a camera that pans 360 degrees with 1080P full HD video and night vision. Free, rolling 14-day cloud storage is also available without an SD card, but you’ll get continuous storage if you add one. It also lets you know if it detects a smoke or carbon monoxide alarm.

      Buy at Amazon$50

      FOR INDOOR/OUTDOOR

      Blink XT2 Outdoor/Indoor Smart Security Camera

      Down from $320

      The Blink camera is an indoor/outdoor camera that has two2-way audio, a two2-year battery life, and customizable motion detection. It includes free cloud storage for up to a year and it works with Alexa to help you arm or disarm your camera with your voice. It has infrared night vision and sends alerts straight to your phone.

      Buy at Amazon$215

      FOR MOUNTING ANYWHERE

      RING Stick Up Cam

      While most of Ring’s offerings are meant for the outdoors, this has the option of being indoors or out. Mount anywhere or simply place where you need in your home easily. This camera is powered by an easy-to-use rechargeable battery pack and works with Alexa to keep you informed. 

      Buy at Amazon$100

      FOR WIRELESS

      ZUMIHALL Security Camera

      Down from $80

      This cam is wireless and battery charged. If you’re worried about it losing juice, don’t. It lasts for 2-5 months so you can rest easy and you can set it up anywhere, wire free.

      Buy at Amazon$58

      FOR 1080p RESOLUTION

      YI 1080p Home Camera

      At a similar price point as the original Wyze camera, the YI Cloud camera adds on an optional 24/7 emergency response system if you notice something happening in any of your alerts that require police, fire, or EMS. The 1080p capabilities mean a crisp picture and it even has activity alerts that can tell you what’s going on like a baby crying.

      Buy at Amazon$25
