Arlo

For your family’s security, you should think about equipping your home with the second-generation Arlo Video Doorbell. The HD version of the device, which usually sells for $79, is currently available from Walmart with a $20 discount that makes it more affordable at just $59. With the savings, you’ll be able to buy more than one video doorbell for your house, but you need to act fast and proceed with your transaction immediately because this deal may disappear as soon as tomorrow.

Why you should buy the Arlo Video Doorbell HD 2nd Gen

The Arlo Video Doorbell 2nd Gen is featured in our roundup of the best video doorbells for a variety of reasons. There’s a 2K version available, but the HD version is nearly identical, aside from the video resolution. You’ll get a 180-degree field-of-view for a wider look at what’s happening outside your front door, and you’ll also be able to communicate with people through its two-way audio. You can even access livestreaming video through its lens from your smartphone or tablet. The Arlo Video Doorbell 2nd Gen is also weatherproof, and you have the option of going wired or wireless for its installation.

After buying the Arlo Video Doorbell 2nd Gen, you have the option of signing up for an Arlo Secure plan. The subscription makes the video doorbell even more potent, as it will unlock features such as 60-day video cloud storage, customizable activity zones, and 24/7 emergency response, depending on the tier that you choose. Every purchase of the Arlo Video Doorbell 2nd Gen comes with a 30-day trial.

The second-generation Arlo Video Doorbell is already affordable for the benefits that it provides, but its price on Walmart is even lower right now. The HD version is on sale at $20 off, slashing its price from $79 to only $59, but we’re not sure for how much longer. If you think your family needs the Arlo Video Doorbell HD 2nd Gen, don’t hesitate with your purchase so that you can pocket the savings.

My smart home experiment has reached its natural limit
Smart-home technology keeps improving, but being easier to automate doesn’t make everything worth automating
Computer, Electronics, Laptop, Smart Home

The first device I added to my smart home was a light bulb. It seemed like the safest possible place to start. I could turn it on from anywhere, put it on a schedule, and eventually work it into routines with everything else.

Then I tapped the button in the app and waited. The delay was only about half a second, but half a second is surprisingly noticeable when the alternative is a wall switch that responds immediately and has never once asked for a firmware update. Using my phone was worse. I had to unlock it, find the app, open the right room, and tap the light I could have switched on several steps earlier.
