The Nest Cam Indoor is great. It has all the basic features you want in a wireless home security camera without all the bells and whistles you don’t need. There’s only one problem: it costs $200 for a single camera. That’s just insane, especially when you can find cameras that are just as good for way less. Check out the Wyze Cam 1080p HD Indoor Wireless Smart Home Camera, which is just $26 with free Prime shipping on Amazon. It has the same 1080p resolution and all the same features, but you can buy seven of them for less than the cost of one Nest Cam!
