Independent testing
How much independent testing exists for each security camera
Of the 9 security cameras we track, 6 have been physically measured by at least one independent lab. Below is every one, ordered by how much independent hands-on evidence stands behind it — densest first.
A coverage record, not a ranking of which is best.
| Product | Independent labs | Metrics measured | Outlets on record |
|---|---|---|---|
| Arlo Pro 5S 2K | 2 | 2 | 2 |
| eufy SoloCam S340 | 2 | 1 | 2 |
| Google Nest Cam (Battery) | 2 | 1 | 3 |
| TP-Link Tapo C120 | 1 | 2 | 2 |
| Blink Outdoor 4 | 1 | 1 | 3 |
| Wyze Cam v4 | 1 | 1 | 2 |
| Google Nest Cam (Indoor, Wired) | 0 | 0 | 3 |
| Ring Spotlight Cam Plus (Battery) | 0 | 0 | 1 |
| Ring Stick Up Cam Pro (Battery) | 0 | 0 | 3 |
Each figure is a count of what independent testers actually did — how we count. A low count means little independent evidence has been gathered yet, never that a product is worse. See also the Security Cameras buying guide and the reviewers we cite.
