This Arlo camera system is 100% wire-free and can be installed virtually anywhere in your home. It’s also completely weatherproof, which makes it perfect for both indoor and outdoor use. Setting it up is fast and easy and does not require a computer.

In terms of the camera, you will find its 720p video recording reliable. It’s not a match for newer models’ 1080p and 4K quality, but it still offers a sharp and clear picture for monitoring. Its night vision mode allows you to see what’s happening even in the dark, and a motion-detection function automatically sends push notifications and emails to you if anything moves.

Arlo also added powerful intelligence to the cameras. Alerts can be customized to detect people and contact emergency responders directly from your smartphone’s lock screen (optional service). It can capture clips and send alerts whether you’re away or at home for around-the-clock peace of mind.

Another key feature of this security camera kit is its compatibility with Amazon Alexa, Echo Show, Fire TV, and Google Assistant. This lets you view your live video with just a simple voice command. Free apps make it easy to keep tabs on what’s happening on your property with just a tap of your finger.

Arlo claims that each camera will last four to six months before needing a recharge. There’s also a battery-level indicator so you’ll know when they’re running low on juice.

Overall, the Arlo 4-Camera Security System is an excellent wireless surveillance solution. With its no-nonsense operation, amazing battery life, and quick installation, it definitely hits all the right marks in home security. Get yours now on Amazon for a discounted price of $279.

Best security camera deals: Get a single camera for $30 and more

Arlo Pro 4 Spotlight Camera

Whether you're working at home or still going to an office, having security cameras around your has can offer you peace of mind, but what might not give you as much peace of mind is finding the right one. Luckily, the best security cameras usually have some form of deal on them, and we've collected some of the best here for you to save you the trouble. So, whether you need a whole-house setup or just a single camera, there are deals for every need.
Today's Best Security Camera Deals
While there are a lot of great deals, our favorite is probably the Swann Enforcer bundle, with four 1080p cameras and local storage. That last bit is important if you have choppy internet and can't rely on cloud storage; plus, you don't have to deal with annoying subscription services, which is always a big plus. The downside is that it's a wired system, so you'll have to run cabling, and not everybody is willing to do that. On the other hand, if you want a wireless system, the Arlo Pro 4 Spotlight Camera Security Bundle is a great option since it comes with a charging station and costs $300 for three cameras, so essentially $100 per camera for 2k and a bunch of other functions.

Of course, if you only need one camera, the Arlo Essential Indoor Camera and the eufy Security SoloCam L40 are both great options. Which one you go for depends wholly on whether you feel the need for 2k resolution or not, although if you're doing it for an indoor space that isn't too big, it might not be worth going for 2k, especially if you only need a pet camera.

Get a SanDisk Extreme Pro 4TB SSD for a ridiculous price today

Sandisk Extreme Pro SSD.

Here's an insane Cyber Monday deal that perhaps doesn't look like that much of a deal at first glance, given that we're talking about a $350 hard drive. But look a little closer and you'll see that B&H Photo has this on sale for something like 65 percent off.

That's still a chunk of change, but those who know, know. This is the sort of SSD that's a lifesaver if you're often moving around large chunks of data, like photos or video, from one place to another. And if you're in the photo or video business, that's you. It'll significantly speed up your Lightroom or Premiere Pro workflow for a few reasons.
