It may be a little pricey, but if you're here for the best then look no further than the Arlo Ultra! This twin pack of security cameras carry the most up to date software and hardware, boasting a 4 K resolution for crystal clear footage whether it's midday or midnight.

The camera uses motion sensors to capture footage, so you won't have to search through lengthy recordings. Additionally, it offers the widest field of view at 180° and has a great app interface with premium AI features that allow you to tailor alerts to your exact preferences. 

Ring  offer a variety of cameras and home security systems that all support the same software. Why is this important? Well if you're looking to install more than one camera, by purchasing from Ring you can be certain that all of your hardware will be compatible.

If you're unsure where to start, check out this outdoor cam! It has a 140-degree field of view, HD resolution and integrated floodlights. And its motion detection can even create 3D maps of movements that trigger it. Do note that the drawback of such power for such a price is the need to be wired in.

This affordably priced outdoor security camera lets you keep tabs on what's going outside your home, wherever you are. The 1080 p resolution delivers sharp footage day and night, which can be stored either on a Micro SD card or on the cloud. 

Unlike other devices, this camera has two antennas which can be manually altered to help it achieve better reception. Quick, simple and easy to set up, this is a cut-price camera that's sure to give higher-end models a run for their money!

If buying a reliable camera is your top priority, we suggest this model from Ring. We've opted for the wired model over the wireless variation, as this prevents WiFi interference and guarantees a stable connection.

This camera features motion-triggered recording, a wide-angle view and full colour night vision. But best of all is the 110-decibel siren! This function can be activated remotely from the app and is a fantastic tool for discouraging crooks - it's pretty good for playing practical jokes too if you time it right. 

If you're after a security camera you can simply set up and leave to do it's thing, you might want to consider the EufyCam. Often forget to charge your devices? No problem! The battery lasts for 365 days, or up to 3 years in standby mode.

This security camera comes with a 16 GB micro SD card, which should be enough space for a year's worth of footage. It also has a siren system that will automatically trigger should anyone try and remove the camera, which is a handy feature to have when you'll be storing all the data onboard the device. 

If you're looking for a cheap, yet reliable model, this security camera from COOAU is certainly the best we've found. It comes with motion detection, an impressive IP66 waterproof rating and a crisp HD resolution.

We like that this camera gives you the option to store files either using a micro SD card, or through the cloud. Sensitivity and detection time can also be adjusted to reduce false alarms without completely turning the camera off.

If you're looking to save money on storage, we recommend the Blink Outdoor. Included with each purchase is the ability to store hundreds of clips on the cloud for up to a year, with no monthly subscription fees!

The Outdoor comes with a comforting 2 year manufacturer guarantee. It can be connected so you receive motion alerts directly to your smartphone, or can use Alexa integration to remotely operate the camera and view live streams and clips via Alexa-enabled devices. 

This 2 K camera from Arlo will provide you with crisp and sharp high definition images both day and night. It's super simple to set up the wireless magnetic mount, so you won't have to worry about getting out the power drill and making a mess of your nicely plastered walls. 

The system comes with a full house of additional functions for added security and ease of use. It may be up there with the most expensive models on the list, but if you're willing to fork out, we're sure you won't be disappointed. 

This twin pack of cameras from Google provides a wide 130° view of your outdoor area. We especially like that these cameras allows you to zoom in and enhance an image, capturing all the fine details. Due to the LED sensors that are in the camera, you can rest assured you'll get clear footage whether it's night or day. 

However, we do have one big concern, and that's the Nest's 30 minute cooling off period. This means that if a second activity occurs within 30 minutes of a first event, you won't receive a notification to check the camera in real-time. 

A bit different from the other entries on the list is this video doorbell. To ensure you don't miss any visitors, the 160°field of view provides a substantial view from the front of your house. 

Additionally, it has a nifty 'pre-roll' function that allows you to view a couple of seconds before the motion sensor kicks in. The motion detection zone can also be customised to fit your space.
