Blink and Wyze make some of the best home security cameras we've tested. Both companies focus on affordable smart home devices, but Blink is owned by Amazon, whereas Wyze is a smaller, independent company. These brands have established a David and Goliath-like rivalry over the years to earn a place as the best budget security camera.
Both companies' flagship security cameras cost less than $50 and are IP65 weatherproof so they can be placed indoors or outside. The latest of these hybrid models is the Wyze Cam v4 and Blink Mini 2. Both cameras are useful additions to any home, but which you should buy comes down to the way you plan to use it and which smart home platform you use. Read on to see a breakdown of the features and costs of both to find which is the best fit for your smart home.
