Hi everyone,
I’m planning to install a home security camera system and could use some advice. What are the best home security camera systems available in terms of reliability, image quality, and ease of installation? Are there any specific features I should look for, like night vision, motion detection, or cloud storage? Personal experiences and recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

With my mother-in-law being ninety-six, I recently purchased a Litokam 5MP indoor security camera to keep an eye on her while we are up and she stays downstairs. As she gets out of bed, we can now see her and move to assist her if necessary. It also notifies our phones when it detects movement in the room, and the nighttime picture quality is excellent.
