It's a shame that we live in a world where our security is consistently at risk, but it seems as though things are only destined to get more dangerous around here for the time being. There was also weatherproofing to consider in any outdoor models, with IP65 being a baseline for reliable performance in the elements. Other important features we scrutinized included motion detection, and while most models offer some kind of motion activation - to initiate recording, turn on lights, or send alerts to your phone - the upgraded Foscam G4 Outdoor Wi-Fi actually boasts the ability to differentiate among cars, cats, and people, so you can get fewer false positives sent to your phone or eating up your storage space. Resolution is also the main reason we sent away the Phylink spycam from our last ranking, as it topped out at 720p. With resolution expectations continually on the rise for any and all cameras - not just security models-, we wanted to make sure to include as many 4K options on this list as there were reliable offerings on the market, leading to the inclusion of the Arlo Ultra among others, which is one of the easiest options to set up and use, with a magnetic mounting system and an incredibly intuitive mobile app. They actually move the lens elements to refract the light in different ways, enlarging the image the sensor sees, not just blowing up the one it's already recorded, which can make a big difference when trying to see a face or make out a license plate. Even 4K footage will start to look pretty grainy when you zoom in digitally, whereas optical zooms are like the ones you see on nice camera lenses. Often, these cameras will deliver a digital zoom only, as is the case with the Lorex. ![]() Newcomers to the ranking include the H.View Outdoor Security and the Lorex E861AB-E Smart Security, with the H.View model earning a high place for its zoom function. ![]() And while it is a pretty good option, the Google Nest Cam Indoor has simply gotten too long in the tooth to justify a spot on a tech sector list, as it will turn six soon. Be sure to browse through our selection of IP camera systems, especially our 4K security camera systems which feature the best resolution cameras money can buy combined with our professional NVRs.While there weren't a ton of new models to feature in this category, we did see an upgrade to the Blink Outdoor HD, though this model has little new in its offerings and still suffers from the motion detection problems reported of its predecessor. For customers looking to build a future proof security cameras system, IP cameras are the best choice. Although there are several advantages to using IP security cameras, the main ones are 1) resolution support beyond 2K, and 2) easy connectivity with CAT5e or better network cabling. Watch the video on the top of this page to learn more about how easy it is to setup our IP Security Camera Systems using PoE technology. Most network cameras we sell have PoE connectivity built-in, making them easy to use with any NVR with built-in PoE switch. We rigorously test and review each IP camera model we sell to ensure it performs to specifications, and is easy to integrate with our network video recorders.
