Best Indoor/Outdoor
The Arlo Ultra ($332) is the best indoor/outdoor motion sensor camera for two reasons. First, it has
the best video quality. It includes an extra-wide field of view (180 degrees), 4K ultra HD video and
color night vision. Second, Arlo’s home security camera includes helpful features such as a siren,
noise-canceling technology with the two-way talk option and a spotlight.
Not only does it detect motion, it can tell the difference between humans, pets and vehicles, so you
can customize your motion alerts and recording preferences. Plus, it’s wire-free and runs on a
rechargeable battery.

Every time your camera sees a face, its artificial intelligence memorizes it; eventually it will learn the
faces of people who regularly come to your home. That helps it notify you when strangers are
detected. It can also zoom in on a person for clearer video identification. Because this camera is
corded, you’ll need a waterproof adapter to plug it in outside, or drill a hole to feed the cord through
the wall for an inside connection.

You can also customize motion areas so that the Ring doorbell only detects movement in certain
areas of your yard, reducing false alerts. Plus, the app has a bevy of fantastic features, including a
neighborhood watch. Power comes from a rechargeable battery pack, or you can connect to existing
doorbell wiring.

Best on a Budget
The Zmodo ($80) is the best budget pick. It doubles as a home hub, streaming music and more. Our
favorite feature: This little camera swivels almost completely around (350 degrees), allowing it to
record more than a regular camera and follow what caused the motion around the room. It’s powered
by four lithium batteries.

Best Floodlight
The Arlo Pro 3 Floodlight Camera ($235) packs the smarts of a motion sensor camera with the
brightest light on the market, enough to illuminate your whole yard. This floodlight camera can be
set to come on only when it detects motion, or manually using the app. You can also set the camera
to record and/or notify you when motion is detected. The Arlo Pro 3 comes with a battery that must be
removed to recharge, or you can purchase a solar charger or permanent charging cable.
