Any time of year is a good time to think about home security, but if you’re travelling during the holidays it can certainly be nice to have some peace of mind that everything back home is safe and sound. And with two indoor Roku cameras available for just $30 at Amazon, you can keep eyes on your property without spending a fortune. That’s 45% off and drops the cost of each cam to just $15 — a total steal.
These cameras have 1080p video capture, night vision, as well as both motion and sound detection. That means they’re great at all manner of things, whether that’s keeping an eye on entranceways or using to keep an eye on your little ones. They’re really easy to install, as you can just place or mount them wherever is needed, and you can live stream what they see thanks to the mobile app.
Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money.
You don’t need a subscription to use these cameras, and they work great with Alexa and Google Assistant devices, plus Roku TVs, though opting for the subscription does unlock some extra features like cloud recordings and smarter person, pet and package detection.

Based on their popularity, here are the holiday deals that you should be considering:
Why this deal matters
Home security isn’t always cheap, but this deal offers a great chance to add a couple more points to any security you already have, or just to use them as cameras to keep an eye on pets or kids. Either way, getting two cameras of this quality for just $30 is an incredible deal.
Will this item arrive in time for Christmas?
If you’re ordering this as a holiday gift, you probably want to know if it’s going to arrive on time. With Christmas and Hanukkah both taking place on Dec. 25 this year, and Kwanzaa kicking off the day after, it’s important to note shipping deadlines for USPS, FedEx, UPS, Amazon and others.
Guaranteed shipping deadlines at some of these delivery companies arrive as soon as Dec. 16, with others offering expedited services that may allow you to order as late as Dec. 23 or even Dec. 24. Where delivery is no longer possible, be sure to assess your in-store pickup options or check out these great digital deals for the holidays.
The Roku indoor security camera 2-pack will arrive before Christmas, according to Amazon.
