If you want to add security to your doorstep but think that installing an outdoor security camera is kind of overkill, you may want to consider getting the Ring Video Doorbell 3 Plus. This model operates wirelessly which means it can be installed anywhere with just a mounting bracket and screw. Once installed, you can hook it up with other Ring devices in your home through the companion app and then set up tasks.

The Video Doorbell 3 Plus is equipped with a myriad of security features that make it a great first line of protection for your home. It has upgraded motion zone settings that can be customized to focus on designated areas so false notifications are minimized. We also love the Pre-roll feature which lets the camera record a four-second preview video to identify what exactly triggered an alert.

Other convenient features include the two-way audio function which allows you to hear and speak to people from your smartphone, tablet, or Alexa-enabled device; a 1080p HD video resolution and a night vision so you can monitor clearly all day and all night; and the record and capture features so you can save and share photos and videos.

Nest Learning Thermostat (3rd Gen)

– $220, was $250

Google

A smart thermostat is a nice investment for your home. It can adjust and regulate the climate (both heating and cooling) conditions of an area without you having to lift a finger. If your smart home is run by Google, might we suggest the Nest Learning Smart Thermostat? This model is actually included in our list of the best smart thermostats mainly because of its learning capabilities. Once installed and the temperature you like is set, it will do the rest.

This Nest thermostat learns your household’s patterns and adjusts the temperature settings based on your habits. After a week of assessment, it will program itself to the temperatures you prefer. When there’s no one home, the Away Mode will automatically be activated to switch to an energy-efficient temperature. The third-generation model is especially efficient as compared to the older models since it has new set of sensors called Farsight that make detection more accurate.

Additionally, this device comes with a companion app so you can adjust it whether you’re in another room or miles away. The app is also useful for monitoring the equipment, getting alerts on dangerous temperatures, and receiving service reminders. You’ll also be able to keep track of how much energy you consume and make necessary temperature adjustments, helping you save on utility bills.

Best Buy just slashed the price of the LG Gram SuperSlim laptop by $500

In one of the most attractive laptop deals that we've recently come across, Best Buy has slashed the price of the LG Gram SuperSlim from $2,000 to $1,500. That's a steal when you consider the capabilities of this powerful device, so you're going to have to hurry if you want to take advantage of this offer because we're pretty sure that there will be a lot of interested shoppers. Add the laptop to your cart and complete the checkout process before the bargain gets taken down -- along with the $500 discount.

Why you should buy the LG Gram SuperSlim laptop
When you turn on the LG Gram SuperSlim, the first thing you'll notice about this laptop is its amazing display. It comes with a 15.6-inch OLED screen with Full HD resolution and a 0.02ms response time, for sharp and smooth visuals with realistic details and color, whether you're watching streaming shows or working on any type of project. However, even with this decent-sized display, the laptop stays true to its SuperSlim name, as it weighs just over two pounds and is thinner than an AA battery. It achieves this while maintaining durability, as it passed military-grade tests for vibration, high and low temperature, and more. There's growing interest in thin laptops, and LG is filling that niche with the likes of the LG Gram SuperSlim and the LG Gram UltraSlim.

Fitness trackers come in all shapes and sizes, but did you know that they can also come in the form of rings? If you're interested, you can get the Oura Ring 3, a smart ring that can monitor different kinds of health metrics, with a $50 discount from Best Buy. Instead of its original price of $299, you'll only have to pay $249, but you need to act fast because we're not sure when the offer will end. Add the wearable device to your cart and proceed with the checkout process immediately if you don't want to miss the savings.

Why you should buy the Oura Ring 3
Despite the arrival of the Oura Ring 4, the Oura Ring 3 remains a worthwhile purchase as one of the best fitness trackers that you can buy. According to our Oura Ring 4 versus Oura Ring 3 comparison, the Oura Ring 4 is thinner and lighter, and offers a slightly improved battery, but it shares the same fitness tracking features with the Oura Ring 3, and both are compatible with iOS and Android smartphones. They also both require an Oura membership that costs $6 per month to unlock deeper insights and exclusive features, so the lower price of the Oura Ring 3 compared to the Oura Ring 4 is even more appealing.

Google Pixel Watch 2 -- $200 $250 20% off

We were impressed in our Google Pixel Watch 2 review. We called it a “huge upgrade, offering better performance, battery, and more.” It offers “slick, fast performance” along with “comprehensive fitness tracking.” That’s thanks to Fitbit’s most accurate heart rate tracking, its body-response feature, and even skin temperature changes, as well as the now typical fitness tracking tools and the ECG app. It offers 24 hours of battery life from one charge, while its gorgeous design is more watch-like so it looks good on your wrist. It also has Google AI built-in and it has safety features like fall detection, an emergency SOS tool, and Safety Check where your watch shares your location with close contacts in the event of any issues.
