Best ABUS security camera in this set

Updated: 16 October 2026

You want one best ABUS security camera, and the six amazon.co.uk listings in our [ABUS security camera comparison](/hub/electronic-surveillance/abus-security-camera) do not share one job. A 4.4 line on a monitor set answers a different question from 4.0 on an indoor cube at a third of the price. This page names a fit, and who should leave it, from the prices and Customer Reviews lines captured on 15 October 2026. The Products Compared editorial team did not run a laboratory test. Review text in the saved listings is not labelled United Kingdom. A qualifying purchase can earn us a commission at no extra cost to you.

What the star lines actually are

The highest line is the EasyLook BasicSet PPDF17000, 4.4 from 183 ratings, at £350.99. Two listings sit at 4.0: the indoor PPIC31020, 168 ratings at £96.47, and the lamp PPIC46520, 118 ratings at £239.82. The older lamp, PPIC36520, is 3.6 from 72 ratings at £220.03. The outdoor 4K PPIC54520B is 3.4 from 18 ratings at £148.66. The CASA30500 at £221.23 has no Customer Reviews line. Those figures are the amazon.co.uk lines we captured. They are not a British magazine test. A 4.4 can be the top pick inside this set for one job. It cannot be read as the best camera in the UK. If a camera is not as described, satisfactory quality sits with the Consumer Rights Act 2015, section 9. A star line does not replace that test.

If you want no app

The top pick for a kitchen screen and no phone account is the EasyLook PPDF17000. Reviewers say a picture appears after power-on, without joining the home router, and several describe the units as already paired. The bullets say no internet and no WLAN. The same file's table says Wi-Fi. We have kept both. Reviews describe privacy zones on the monitor and an intercom at the door. They also say you cannot watch the set away from that screen. Leave it if you need an alert on the train. £350.99 is the dearest listing here, the resolution cell prints 3.0, and you supply the microSD up to 128 GB. The Wi-Fi cell stays visible on the ABUS camera without Wi-Fi page. If you are still unsure you want a monitor, use the ABUS security camera buying guide.

If you want a phone and a card

For one indoor room, the best value in this set is the PPIC31020 at £96.47. It is 1080p with a 180 degree view, a privacy flap the bullets say also cuts the microphone and the Wi-Fi, and an 8 GB card named in the box. It is 4.0 from 168 ratings, the same stars as the lamp at £239.82, with more ratings and a much lower price. It is not water resistant. One support reply said 2.4 GHz only, against a dual-band bullet, and some reviewers call the night picture poor. Outdoors, the PPIC54520B is the 4K, IP66 camera at £148.66, with App2Cam Plus and a no-subscription bullet. Take it only if 18 ratings are enough and a fixed bracket is acceptable. The bullets do not promise remote pan and tilt.

What not to call best value

The CASA30500 is not best value because it sits mid-list. It is £221.23 for 480p and 60 degrees, a garbled title, no review line, and a range printed as both 8 metres and 30 metres. The indoor cube is £96.47 with 168 ratings. The 4K camera is £148.66. A middle price, in this set, is not a bargain.

Common questions

Does 4.4 mean British buyers?
It means the Customer Reviews line on that amazon.co.uk listing. It does not mean the reviewers were in the United Kingdom. On the EasyLook file, 47 of 50 sampled blocks are labelled Germany, and none is labelled United Kingdom. The same pattern appears on the other listings that have review text. We have not treated any star line as a UK laboratory test.
Is the cheapest camera the best value?
For one indoor room, yes, inside this set. The PPIC31020 is £96.47, 4.0 from 168 ratings, with an 8 GB card named in the box. That is the best value on those terms. It is a poor buy for a garden, because the listing says it is not water resistant. The same 4.0 on the £239.82 lamp is a different product, for a 230 volt light.
Why is 3.4 from 18 a weak base for a pick?
Eighteen ratings can swing on a handful of setups. The PPIC54520B sample includes reviewers who never got the app to find the camera, and all 14 sampled blocks are labelled Germany. Picture praise in those reviews is real, and the sample is still too small to treat 4K as the winner of this set. Use it if you accept a fixed bracket and can fall back to LAN.
Is 480p at £221.23 a bargain?
It is not the bargain in this set. The CASA30500 asks £221.23 for 480p and a 60 degree view, with no review line and a garbled title. The PPIC31020 is £96.47 at 1080p with 168 ratings, and it is indoor. The PPIC54520B is £148.66 at 4K with only 18 ratings. Leave the CASA30500 unless you already know you need that model.
What should you say instead of a test winner?
The highest score for a stated job is the top pick. The strongest price-and-review match for a stated job is the best value. Here the top pick is the EasyLook if you want the monitor and accept no remote viewing. The best value is the PPIC31020 for one indoor room. Neither phrase means a laboratory test, or the best ABUS camera on sale in the UK.
