This 3-camera Alro home security kit is $300 off at Best Buy
Arlo Pro 4 Spotlight Camera

While Amazon's Ring cameras have been all the rage recently regarding home security, there are many other great options out there, such as the Arlo Pro 4, which actually features on our list of best home security cameras. While buying a whole new security bundle isn't always cheap, luckily, Best Buy has a great deal discounting a complete kit down to just $300 from $600. That's 50% off the original pricing for three cameras and parts, a price tag that can easily compete with Amazon's best Ring bundles.

Why you should buy the Arlo Pro 4 Spotlight Camera Security Bundle
There's a lot to love about the Arlo Pro 4, but the biggest is probably that it can connect to your router wirelessly rather than needing a hub or an ethernet connection, which is a huge leg up on competitors. The removable battery also helps decrease the number of wires since you can use the included secure mounts without worrying about running a power cable. Even better, this bundle includes four batteries and a dual battery charger, making your life much easier when swapping out batteries. As for battery life, while Arlo claims six months, you're more likely to get about a month out of it, which isn't bad.
