We seriously love the new Nest Cam IQ. We also seriously don’t have enough money to buy a bunch of these $300 cameras to spread them around the house. That’s where the Lynx Indoor Wifi Home Security Camera comes in. It doesn’t have a 4K sensor like the Nest Cam IQ does, but it does feature facial recognition so it can tell the difference between your family members and an intruder. At $58 on Amazon, it’s an absolute steal.

Here are the key details from the product page:

* Intelligent facial recognition software to choose who your camera recognizes
* Crystal clear 1080P HD live video streaming with night vision to monitor in complete darkness
* Two-way audio, motion detection and instant alerts
* Built-in support for 802.11b/g/n 2.4Ghz (5Ghz currently not supported, please confirm that your router support 2.4Ghz Wifi Band) WIFI band. Access your camera with the Tend Secure App on your mobile device anytime, anywhere
* Two-way audio, motion detection and instant alerts
