Updated September 2026
Data from Amazon and official Ring and TP-Link sites.
2026 verdict
The Ring Indoor Cam Plus wins on ratings, 2K video, HDR, color night vision and privacy zones against the TP-Link Kasa EC70.
It records 2K with HDR and sees in colour after dark, supports privacy zone masking as well as motion zones, offers two-way talk and slots into Ring's app with Alexa, Home Assistant and IFTTT support. The TP-Link Kasa EC70 is cheaper, carries a 2-year warranty against 1 year, and wins on storage and alerts, recording 24/7 and event history to a microSD card at no cost and adding baby-crying detection, with a motorised base that pans and tilts to cover a room, though it records 1080p in black and white at night, has no siren or privacy zones and keeps person alerts behind a subscription. Buy the Ring Indoor Cam Plus for the sharper picture, and the TP-Link Kasa EC70 for free recording and pan-and-tilt coverage.
