Best Affordable Home Security Cameras Under $100
You do not need a professionally installed system to keep an eye on your home. A few well-reviewed cameras under $100 can cover a front door, driveway, or backyard — most with free basic storage included.
The problem
The cheap end of the security camera market is full of no-name brands that lose support after a year. We stuck to cameras from established manufacturers with a track record of firmware updates.
