Just a heads up, if you buy something through our links, we may get a small share of the sale. It’s one of the ways we keep the lights on here. Click here for more.

Amazon’s Cloud Cam is down to only $59.99, which is a steep discount even over its previous best price. It was selling for $120 at launch, so this is a huge deal for the security conscious. It can send you notifications when it spots activity, has a 1080p video stream, night vision, two-way audio and more. It’s not weatherproof, so it’s indoors-only and it does require a Cloud Cam plan in order to properly function.

You’re limited on the free plan, but you can still watch, download, and share the last 24-hours of activity and notifications. Upgrading to the Cloud Cam plan adds access to the last 30 days of recordings, person-detection, and “zones” that you can set up that enable you to avoid notifications for trees in the wind, etc. It has eight infrared LEDs to light up even the darkest room, and intelligent image processing to make it clear as day.

It’s also Alexa-enabled, so you can use the voice assistant to show you the camera feed or use the two-way audio to tell the kids that it’s time for dinner. You can also use the Cloud Cam as a nursery-cam for keeping an eye on your precious darling while they are sleeping or playing.

For the price, it is tough to beat.
