Doesn't require additional app download ; Electronic shutter helps with privacy ; Designed to work indoors & outdoors ; Straightforward setup

Requires paid iCloud subscription to save videos ; Pricey cost for basic security features

Logitech has undercut all of its rivals with cheaper subscription plans and a unique feature in the form of Day Brief. It's still missing some advanced features, but it's now my personal favourite home monitoring camera.

Sharp 1080p video ; Works with HomeKit ; Weatherproof ; Easy to install

Only works with iOS devices ; Many features require an Apple device as a hub ; No Alexa or Google Assistant support ; Overly sensitive motion detection

The Logitech Circle View is an indoor/outdoor security camera that delivers crisp 1080p video and several smart features, but you’ll need an iCloud account and a compatible Apple device to serve as a hub to take advantage of most of them.

Easy to set up and mount anywhere. Simple app and Web portal. Battery-powered option. Two-way voice communication.

No way to configure alerts or recordings. Battery doesn't last long enough for realistic wireless use.

The Logi Circle has an modus operandi that focuses on capturing precious moments at home. Security buffs might scoff at the lack of comprehensive footage backup, but the experience is just fun. When was the last time someone said that about home security?

Affordable price tag, free and secure cloud storage, snippet/recording sharing, wide angle viewing, two-way audio

Poor quality footage at a distance or when zoomed in, only 24-hour max playback (without subscription)

The Logitech Circle certainly has a lot to offer and some stand-out features that make it a worthwhile addition to your home. If you're looking for a smart home camera that doesn't require a subscription cost then this is it. If you want footage...

Circle clearly has some lingering raw edges, but the good news is that Logi could – and indeed intends to – address them with software updates. With more control over clips and better sharing options I’d feel a lot more confident in recommending it....
