Nest’s lineup of wireless home security cameras are among the most popular options out there, and they’re great. They’re also so expensive though, and there are actually even better options out there that offer more features for much less money. The Wyze Cam Pan is a perfect example. It does everything a $200 Nest Cam can do and more, like remote pan and zoom, or automatic motion-tracking. It also includes 14 days of free cloud storage… all for just $38!
