Prime Day brings with it a lot of exciting deals, but Amazon-owned companies Blink and Ring tend to dominate – not only with massing savings but also 'early access' deals meaning you can get in a few days early.
Now the event is in full swing I've found some deals on more than just those Amazon-owned firms, which. As Digital Camera World's resident smart home security camera expert that is quite exciting, since I prefer to have a full range of options available to me. (That said, I have also been very impressed with the Blink deals with subscription costs factored in - yes, I did the long-term math, and for the Ring deals too.)
Anyway, to my main point. Our list of best security cameras has other brands for good reason. For example, as an Apple HomeKit user, I'm fond of the Arlo system, which allows the use of an Arlo base station that lets your Arlo cameras integrate Apple's system, and there are some striking discounts to be had on Arlo cameras:

Or, you can go the whole hog and get a top notch Arlo system with high-res cameras, XL batteries, and the home hub and get a massive Prime Day deal too...
Eufy
One of the best brands because, while they might ask for a little more upfront, they (like Arlo) offer an elegant alternative to the subscription in the form of a base station. There are several choices – I reviewed this S330 bundle a few months ago and strongly recommend it:
Swann
Swann make a good choice as one of the more reliable PoE (Power over Ethernet) companies – it helps a lot they're not embroiled in an international trade blacklisting either like some big Chinese brands.
Blink & Ring
They're not without some great deals this Prime Day, and it'd be churlish to ignore them, especially these two brilliant deals:
