The best October Prime Day home security deals at a glance:




BEST SINGLE SECURITY CAMERA DEAL

TP-Link Tapo MagCam

$59.99 at Amazon with on-page coupon (save $60)

Amazon’s massive fall sale takes place on Oct. 8 and 9 this year, so if you’re shopping for some good deals this fall you’ll want to tune into Prime Big Deals Days. Last year we saw nice discounts on kitchen appliances, Amazon devices, Apple products, and plenty more.

If you’re looking to give your home security a bump, the mega-retailer has dropped prices on video doorbells and security cameras of all shapes and sizes.

Looking for Ring, eufy, or Wyze cameras? You won’t find them on this list. Between exploiting user data, security breaches, and a lack of transparency, we strongly recommend steering clear of these brands. You can read more about our concerns in our best home security systems guide.

We’ll be keeping a running tab below on all the best home security deals as Amazon’s October Prime Day plays out. Check back regularly for the latest updates.

Best video doorbell deal

Why we like it

Ahead of the Prime Big Deal Days event, the Blink Video Doorbell has dropped to just $29.99 from $59.99. That’s 50% in savings and matches its Prime Day price from July. Is there a chance it could drop even further? Sure, but we see no reason to wait if you’re in the market for a smart doorbell now. The Blink Video Doorbell lets you see who’s at the door even when you’re not home with a 1080p HD live view and two-way audio, plus infrared night vision once the sun goes down.

Best home security bundle deal

Why we like it

If you could put a price tag on peace of mind, it’d be pretty close to this Blink Whole Home Bundle deal. It includes the Blink Outdoor 4, Mini 2, Video Doorbell, and Sync Module 2, all for just $89.97. That’s 55% off the retail value and the lowest price we’ve seen on this particular bundle. The Blink Mini 2 can take care of the inside of your home, day or night, while the Outdoor 4 can keep an eye on things outside. Paired with the Blink app, the video doorbell can show you who shows up at your door (even at night). And the Sync Module 2 will let you keep track of all the action in one place (and store your clips locally). It’s one of the most affordable ways to keep an eye on every part of your home.

Best single security camera deal

Why we like it

If you only need a single security camera, the TP-Link Tapo MagCam is a reliable choice. While we haven’t had the chance to test it out, our friends at PCMag (owned by Mashable’s publisher, Ziff Davis) have done the honor and awarded it a 4.5 outstanding rating. “It’s an excellent value for a battery-powered camera that offers color night vision, built-in spotlights, local and cloud storage options, free intelligent alerts, voice control, and many other features,” the review states, all of which earned the camera an Editors’ Choice award. The TP-Link Tapo MagCam security camera usually sells for $119.99, but ahead of Prime Big Deal Days, the camera is down to an all-time low of $59.99. Just be sure to select the on-page coupon before adding it to your cart.
