If you’re looking for the chance to expand your home security on a budget, Eufy is introducing a few affordable new smart home products, including a pair of smart security cameras that cost less than $50.

The Eufy Indoor Cam 2K Pan & Tilt is set to release in May at a price of $50. The camera can pan 360 degrees around the room with a 100-degree vertical tilt, giving you a full view of any space. With 2K resolution and improved night vision, your home will be watched even on the darkest nights. The most impressive feature isn’t in the hardware, but in the software. The Eufy Indoor Cam 2K Pan & Tilt has Advanced Smart Detection, a feature that allows it to distinguish between humans, pets, and babies crying. You can also set custom activity zones to reduce the number of false alerts you receive.

The Eufy Indoor Cam 2K Pan & Tilt has two-way audio, motion detection, and works with Apple HomeKit, Alexa, and Google Assistant. It records 24 hours per day, 7 days per week, with up to 128 GB of local storage.

There’s a less expensive option, too: the Eufy Indoor Cam 2K. It has 2K resolution, enhanced night vision, and two-way audio like its more expensive cousin. What sets this model apart aside from the price is the pre-recorded pet command and the pet diary, features that let you keep an eye on your pet and record funny moments that happen when you aren’t at home. The Eufy Indoor Cam 2K is priced at $40 and will be available in May.

The next product Eufy plans to introduce to its lineup is the Smart Lock Touch. This is a smart lock also scheduled to release in May with a price point of $180. The Smart Lock Touch gives users four different ways to unlock the door: Your fingerprint, the keypad, via the app, or with the original key.

The Smart Lock Touch will operate for 365 days on a single battery charge. It has Auto-Lock capabilities that ensure you will never leave your door unlocked by accident. It also has a built-in door sensor to alert you if the door has been left open. While not completely waterproof, the Smart Lock Touch is IP65 rated, which means it can stand up to most weather conditions.

If you’re interested in either product, the Eufy Indoor Cam 2K Pan & Tilt will be available for pre-order on April 17, with an official Amazon release sometime in May. Even if you’re shopping on a budget, the lower price points of these two products will let you safeguard your home without breaking the bank.

This wild new TV mount moves your screen without you touching it
TVs can already adjust their picture and sound without much help from you. Perlegear now wants the physical screen to adapt to you as well.
Indoors, Interior Design, Lamp

TVs have become incredibly smart over the years. They can automatically tweak picture quality, adjust sound for your room, and recommend what you should watch next. Yet once you bolt one to the wall, there’s one decidedly old-fashioned thing about it: it’s staying exactly where you put it.

Perlegear has an interesting solution at IFA 2026. The company is showing off the AX1 Smart Adaptive Mount, a motorized TV mount that detects where you’re watching from and automatically moves the television to a more comfortable height. It’s an idea that sounds a little excessive until you think about how many different ways we use TVs today. You might be sitting on the couch for a movie, standing up for a workout, playing a motion-controlled game, or have kids watching from the floor. The ideal screen position for one isn’t necessarily great for the others.

iRobot’s new Roomba concept uses a piggybacking sidekick to reach tight spaces

Robot vacuums have long forced buyers to choose between cleaning power and clearance. Heavy-duty wet-dry models pack enough scrubbing force to tackle stubborn, sticky messes, but their bulky frames often can't squeeze under low furniture. Slim robot vacuums can glide beneath sofas and beds, but they typically lack the muscle to do much more than sweep up light dust. iRobot's new Roomba Duo concept, unveiled at IFA 2026 in Berlin, aims to solve this problem with an unconventional approach that involves deploying two specialized robots to work as a team.

From Smarter Entry to Screen-Free Wellness, These IFA 2026 Winners Do Things Differently
IFA 2026 Publisher Awards

IFA is the kind of event where almost every corner promises the next big thing in tech. Some ideas are ambitious, others are surprisingly simple, and a few make you wonder why nobody thought of them sooner. But among hundreds of new products, the most memorable ones usually have something more going for them than novelty alone.

This year’s IFA Publisher Award winners are a good example. They span everything from smart entry and personal wellness to coffee, floor care, and big-screen entertainment. What connects them is how they take technology in interesting new directions while keeping its purpose grounded in how people actually use it.
