The best home security products of 2022/2023


As we prepare to wrap up another year, it’s a good time to look back at the best home security products of 2022. Our primary focus here is on DIY products, of which the industry has churned out plenty. The good news is that quality is way up, while prices have mostly held steady in the face of inflationary pressure. That’s what competition does for you.To get more news about home security product, you can visit securamsys.com official website.

Probably because of ongoing supply-chain disruptions, there were a handful of products didn’t reach us in time for adequate consideration, but we will review them as soon as we can and will update this list when we do. In a perfect world, no one would need to consider which brand of smart speaker or smart display they’ve already adopted when buying a home security product. Since you do, we’ve taken that into consideration here.

And as we always do with our annual best-of picks, we didn’t eliminate any great products from consideration just because they came to market before January 1, 2022.Ring’s best doorbell was its first home security product to feature radar-based 3D motion detection, a technology that can now be found in the Ring Floodlight Cam Pro and its Spotlight Cam Pro family of devices. Its camera captures what it sees in very high resolution–1536p–with HDR and a 150 x 150-degree viewing angle, so you get a head-to-toe view of visitors on your porch (and any packages they might have left for you). Ring’s Pre-Roll feature will record six seconds of motion before it sends you an alert, so you can see exactly what triggered the alert. If you also have an Alexa smart speaker or display, you can use Ring’s Quick Replies to have Alexa answer doorbell rings for you–and even record vistiors’ messages. You’ll need a Ring subscription to enable those last two features and to get recordings; you’ll only get a live feed without one.

The Logitech Circle View Doorbell offers video resolution 1200 x 1600 (WxH) pixels to give you a head-to-toe look at visitors, and it boasts a very wide field of view: 160 degrees. An LED light strip on the bottom of the doorbell will provide color night vision up to six feet from the camera, which is equipped with a 5-megapixel image sensor. Like all security cameras in Apple’s HomeKit ecosystem, you’ll get fabulous privacy features: First and foremost, if you also have an Apple HomePod mini or an Apple TV 4K (2021 model or later), you can keep all your security cameras’ video recordings processed locally. These recordings are encrypted when uploaded to your iCloud account, and no one but you has the keys needed to decrypt them.

Despite its name, the Nest Doorbell (Battery) can operate on either battery power or low-voltage wiring if you’re replacing an old wired doorbell. If you do have that kind of power source, the doorbell’s onboard battery will kick in in the event of a power outage. The Nest Doorbell (Wired) is equally worthy of consideration; it has the option to record 24/7 for up to 10 days. These are dual-band devices that can be connect to either 2.4- or 5GHz networks. The camera’s artificial intelligence can distinguish between people, animals, and vehicles moving within its 145-degree diagonal field of view. It can also remember familiar faces to provide you more informative alerts when someone approaches your porch. There’s two-way audio support, of course, or you can have pre-recorded greetings play when someone rings the doorbell. As with Google’s other Nest cameras, storage for three hours of recordings is included; you’ll need a Nest Aware subscription if you need more than that.

The Nest Cam (battery) is a powerful home security camera that’s flexible enough to be deployed indoor or out and is truly wireless. Its magnetic mount makes for easy installation and aiming, and it supports both 2.4- and 5GHz Wi-Fi networks. You get 1080p video resolution and a generously wide 130-degree field of view. Unlike some of its competitors, Google includes cloud storage for three hours of video recordings without a subscription. If you need more, its $6-per-month Nest Aware service bumps that up to 30 days for as many Nest products as you own, while a $12-per-month Nest Aware Plus plan increases your allotment to 60 days and up to 10 days of 24/7 recording (the camera must be plugged into its optional AC power cord to enable that feature).
