amazon new blink cameras have incredible battery life

Amazon has brought some phenomenal Prime Day deals to the table this year, making this one of the best times to shop for tech. One Prime Day smart home deal that caught our attention was the Blink Mini security camera, priced at only $25. This is about a 30% discount off the camera’s regular price of $35.

Security camera prices have declined recently, and we've seen better-quality budget cameras hit the market, like the Wyze Cam V2. You no longer have to pay $200 or more for a decent security camera. The Blink Mini is yet another example of this, with a retail price of only $35 and a Prime Day price of $25. In spite of the low price, the Blink Mini has respectable specifications -- 1080-pixel video, night vision, two-way talk, motion alerts, and a 110-degree diagonal field of view.

The Arlo Pro 4 installed outside.

As the holiday season approaches and the need for improved home security grows, Arlo has added two new options to its home security lineup: The Arlo Pro 4 and the Arlo Ultra 2 spotlight cameras. These cameras not only utilize color night vision, but also have built-in spotlights to pinpoint activity in their field of view and potentially scare away intruders. The new cameras supplement the company's other recent budget offerings and continue to broaden its portfolio.

One feature of note is that both the Arlo Pro 4 and Arlo Ultra 2 cameras are wire-free and don't require dedicated hubs anymore, allowing for more diverse placement. With no need for a hub to connect them to a wireless network, you aren't limited by the proximity of power outlets when placing these cameras.

sony 55 inch x950g 4k tv amazon discount 768x768

Recently, Sony has taken a backseat when it comes to brand popularity, overshadowed by fellow Asian companies LG and Samsung. That's not to say that the Japanese firm has lost its touch. Far from it, actually, especially in the 4K TV department. Sony still offers some of the most stunning TVs out there, with exceptionally gorgeous pictures and immersive, cinematic sound. In fact, Sony’s X900F Series is one of the best-looking LCD TVs we’ve seen in years.

A sort of sequel to it, the X950G Series, has just recently been released. This new breed of Sony TV looks nearly identical to its predecessor but thankfully comes at a much lower price. Right now, you can save a whopping $202
when you get a 55-inch unit of the Sony X950G on Amazon. Instead of $1,200, experience a more dynamic home theater setup for $998. What’s more, if you apply for the Amazon Rewards Visa card and get approval, you can get an additional $50 off instantly, reducing the price to $948.
