Which one should you buy?

For most Australians the Tapo C211 at around $44 is the best indoor security camera, pairing 2K video and a full pan-and-tilt sweep with free on-device person detection and local microSD recording, so there is never a subscription to pay. Buy the $39 Imou if you want the cheapest 360-degree pan-tilt camera, the Wyze Cam OG if you want full-colour night vision and a spotlight or plan to move it outdoors, the Ring Indoor Cam if you live in the Alexa and Echo world and want a swivelling physical privacy cover, the Xiaomi C302 if a retracting lens shield matters most for privacy, and the $83 Reolink E1 Pro if you want 3K clarity, auto-tracking and dual-band Wi-Fi. One honest note: only the Ring leans on a cloud and subscription model - the other five record free to a microSD card - so the decision really comes down to storage and privacy, not the spec sheet.
