Keeping homes safe and secure is a priority for many, and that is why shoppers are investing in at-home CCTV systems. For those who want something simple yet effective, there’s one indoor security camera on offer – and it’s listed as an Amazon’s Choice product.
The Tapo TC70 Pan/Tilt Indoor Security Camera is currently available from Amazon for £16.98, down from £24.99, in a limited-time deal. It offers 1080p high definition resolution and it is equipped with 850nm infrared light LED, which can ‘guarantee 30feet/10m clear video and images at night’, the site says. There is also no hub required, as it works with any Wi-Fi router, and no monthly fee.
It has a wide-angle enhanced lens, offering a large coverage range, and the brand says it could be ideal as a baby or pet monitor. Users can receive instant notifications when a person or motion is detected, and there is motion tracking available, too.

The indoor camera supports a two storage method choice and it works with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant. It is also equipped with a microphone and speaker, so users can watch and communicate with loved ones or even pets when they are not there.
Elsewhere, shoppers could grab this Ring Indoor Camera Plus 2K Security Camera for £49.99 from Argos. With its Retinal 2K, shoppers can ‘catch detail, even at a distance’, and it offers four times enhanced zoom and real-time alerts when motion is detected, the site says.

Or at Currys, there’s this BLINK Home Security Starter Kit with Video Doorbell System & Mini 2K+ Security Camera Bundle for £99.99. This works with Amazon Alexa, is battery or USB powered, and has two-way audio and motion detection.
The Tapo TC70 Pan/Tilt Indoor Security Camera has received an overall average rating of 4.6 out of five stars from more than 20,400 reviews.
One person said: “I have used these for the last three years all around my home and I cannot rate them highly enough! 360 view, full PTZ (pan/tilt/zoom) capability, intercom/microphone for two-way speaking/listening, clear night vision capability, controlled from an app which is very useful. You can view playback if used alongside an SD card, and you can set the recording to ‘continuous’ so you can view older footage if required (dependent on SD card capacity!).
“You can set up alert areas, so if motion is detected in that area, an alarm activates. I think they are exceptionally well priced and come with fixtures for ceiling/wall mounting. For indoor use only (external cameras are available in their range though). I work with surveillance cameras for a living and these are better and more user friendly than the ones I have in work!”
A second person said: “Incredible little camera at a very reasonable price. Very easy to set up with clear images.”
While a third added: “Great indoor camera, especially with the rotation and clear video. For such a low price, I couldn’t ask for anything more for that extra bit of security.”
Others left some feedback, with one writing: “Perfect, easy to set up (the) home camera. Clear image and zoom. Only records when you press this function. But for the price, it’s excellent. I use it to check in on pets whilst at work. Voice activation is also great.”
Another said: “This is a good adaptable camera but it often fails to connect with my phone when I’m away, which is annoying because that’s when I want it to work! It connects excellently when I’m in close proximity. When it does connect, it is a good device.”
