Prime Day is an excellent opportunity to boost your home’s safety features, and you simply can’t go wrong with the Arlo Pro 5S. This security camera is currently available from Amazon at its lowest-ever price of $90, which is 50% off its original price of $180. However, with the shopping event almost nearing its end, you may lose your chance at the savings of $90 if you don’t hurry. Proceed with your transaction right now, especially if you’re planning to buy multiples of this security camera for your home.

Why you should buy the Arlo Pro 5S security camera

The Arlo Pro 5S is our top pick among the best home security cameras as it comes with everything that you’d need from such a device. With 2K video quality, you’ll be able to see everything clearly when you’re looking through its lens using the Arlo app, and it also has up to 12x zoom, color night vision and a 160-degree field of view. It’s a wireless camera that’s powered by a rechargeable battery, and it works with your smart home ecosystem of choice — Amazon’s Alexa, Apple Home, or Google Home — for seamless integration with your family’s devices.

You’ll be able to further maximize the capabilities of the Arlo Pro 5S with an Arlo Secure plan. Starting at $8 per month, membership unlocks helpful features such as a 30-day video history saved to the cloud, smart notifications, AI-powered person and vehicle detection, and so much more.

There’s no shortage of home security camera deals for Amazon’s Prime Day, but you’re going to want to go for the Arlo Pro 5S, which is on sale for its lowest price ever of just $90. There’s even a chance that the 50% discount on its sticker price of $180 doesn’t make it to the final minutes of the shopping event, so there’s no time to waste. If you’re thinking of buying the Arlo Pro 5S security camera — or multiples of it — you should finalize your purchase as soon as you can to make sure that you pocket the savings of $90 each.

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.
