With so many different security cameras on the market, including indoor and outdoor options, how do you know which one is the best for your home?

While outdoor cameras are especially useful and a must-have for any home, this article will discuss indoor security cameras in more detail.

In particular, we will highlight what you should take into account when shopping for an indoor security camera.

What should you look for when shopping for the best indoor security camera?

To help you find the best indoor security camera for you, it’s important to take into account several factors. 

For example, you should consider:

  • Image quality
  • Whether or not the camera is wired or wireless
  • If the camera is live feed compatible 
  • Motion sensors and real-time alerts 


Each of these features will now be explained in more detail below: 

Image quality 

The quality of the security camera is paramount. If the quality is poor, then in the event of an incident, it may be difficult to see what exactly happened, and may make identifying a suspect much more difficult.

So, ideally, you should choose a camera with HD quality if possible. 

Wired vs. wireless connection

There are two main types of security cameras: wired and wireless. Wireless cameras are often battery-powered and the more reliable of the two. 

For example, if your power was cut, these cameras can still record footage. 

It is also worth noting that some wired cameras also contain backup batteries.

Live feed

Not all cameras allow you to access a live feed. However, if you can purchase an indoor security camera that contains this feature, then we highly recommend making use of it.

Not only can you check in on your home throughout the day, but you can also check the cameras at night for peace of mind, and if you have a babysitter, for example, you can check in once in a while to ensure everything is okay.

Of course, you do need to let people know that you are recording.

Motion sensors and alerts

Finally, some cameras contain motion sensors and alerts. Say, for instance, movement is detected, you will receive an alert to your phone or other smart devices, allowing you to access the live feed and see exactly what is going on.

This feature is arguably the most important, providing you with real-time and useful information, allowing you to act accordingly.
