You can never be too careful when it comes to home surveillance. This is why it’s a particularly good idea to buy more than one security camera at a time. And fortunately, most camera companies are more than happy to sell you a bundled batch of lenses for one lump sum! If you know what kind of security camera deals to look for though, this can be a great way to save some dough.

One such security bundle is available through Best Buy. For a limited time, you’ll be able to purchase an Arlo Essential 4-Pack for only $200. That’s a $130 markdown from the bundle’s original price. For those unaware, Arlo is one of the best brands in town when it comes to DIY home surveillance tech, and the Essential is no exception.

Why you should buy the Arlo Essential 4-Pack 

When you’re investing in home security, there’s a number of important criteria to address. First and foremost, you’ll want to make sure the cameras you purchase deliver exceptional video quality and decent audio capabilities. You’ll also want good battery life, solid storage options, and great customer service. Arlo checks all these boxes, as does the company’s Essential lineup.

Resolution is one of the most important camera factors, as the more pixels you have the more detail you’ll be able to get in the final picture. The Arlo Essential Series delivers up to 2K resolution and a 130-degree FOV, which means you’ll be working with a wide-angle lens. Night vision capabilities are here too, with all cams supporting up to 25 feet of IR visibility and color night vision.

Arlo cameras are tied into the Arlo Secure app to store video recordings, adjust system settings, check for software updates, and more. You’ll also be able to control the cameras using Alexa and Google Assistant.

It’s tough to say just how long this promotion is going to last, so we advise taking advantage of the discount while you still can. Purchase the Arlo Essential 4-Pack at Best Buy for only $200 at Best Buy. And while you’re at it, we recommend taking a look at some of the best Arlo Prime Day deals and Best Buy deals we dug up this week!

Google Home’s Interactive Storytime feature has me wondering who actually asked for this

Google Home's latest update introduces several new features, including Gemini-powered Interactive Storytime. While I’m not sure who asked for the feature, it lets families build original stories about specific topics on the fly, instead of just listening to a known story. 

So what's the big new feature here?

Proxima wants to move blood tests into the home, and it has cleared an important early hurdle
The portable analyzer delivers blood-count results in about 20 minutes, but its promise depends on transparent clinical data
Furniture, Table, Desk

Algocyte’s Proxima is designed to run blood-count tests from a small finger-prick sample and send the results to a clinician in about 20 minutes. For patients who need frequent monitoring, that could mean fewer trips to a clinic or laboratory.

The device has also moved beyond the concept stage. Proxima carries UK conformity credentials, while Algocyte operates under a certified medical-device quality system. Those steps give the project more weight than a prototype shown at a launch event.

Remember Samsung’s Ballie home robot? It may finally be inching closer to reality
Leaked app wireframes give the strongest hint yet that Samsung's Ballie home robot, first shown at CES 2020, might still be headed toward an actual release.

Samsung's rolling home robot has been the industry's longest-running "will it ever actually ship" joke, and I'll admit I'd mostly given up on it. Now, there's finally a glimmer of hope.

Samsung first unveiled Ballie as a concept at CES 2020. Then, it showed it as a significantly upgraded version four years later. However, the company never confirmed a release date or committed to releasing it at all.
