How could a smart home product help you?

“I have a newborn, so a camera could assist with monitoring [the] little one, or general home security. Alternatively, I have elderly grandparents [so] one of these could assist with ensuring their safety or reassurance.”

Chris, EE Store Customer

Home-security is vital. Especially since spending the majority of two years inside our homes. We’ve created new memories. Made the family a little bigger. Spent more time with the family. Splashed out on more money renovating. And so, protecting our homes, families, and belongings is even more important.

If you’re looking for a security camera to monitor the inside of your home, it’s convenient you get one that you can move around – one that’s not hardwired. It makes them easy to move around, take from room to room and immediately connect to your smartphone or tablet, no matter what room they’re in.

Whether you want to monitor your newborn baby, or indeed your elderly grandparents for safety and reassurance, it may be worth looking into a camera with two-way-talk so you can see and hear your loved one. You’ll be able to hear them if they need you and you’re in another room, as well as speak to them using the smartphone app from anywhere. If unusual activity is detected from your smart cam, you’ll be able to receive notifications and alerts from your smartphone, tablet, or PC.

Our verdict...

“Ring’s Stick Up Cam gives you protection anywhere. It’s smart, versatile and works with voice-assistants like Alexa and the Google Assistant. You can literally place it anywhere you like. Just pick it up and walk around with it, or you can fix it on the ceiling or on your wall.”

Ring’s Stick Up Cam comes in black and/or white, battery and/or wired, so you’re spoiled for choice when it comes to home security! Whether you go for the battery or wired variations, you can place the Stick Up Cam on your wall, on your ceiling, outside your house, or place it anywhere you feel like it in your home. You can connect the Ring Stick Up Cam to Alexa-enabled smart devices and see real-time footage, just by asking Alexa. The Stick Up Cam – Battery can stand on any flat surface. Just pick it up and move it around whenever you need it – helpful if you want to keep an eye on the little one. It’s also takes just minutes to set up and comes with easy charging. Stick Up Cam – Wired gives non-stop power so you don’t need to charge it, but is less portable than the battery version. Never the less, you can place it inside or outside the house, whether sunny or raining, and you can set up customisable motion detection and receive alerts when unusual activity is detected. Having one outside may give you peace of mind your grandparents are safe at home.
