SimpliSafe is celebrating the 4th of July with deep discounts on its DIY home security systems. As long as you sign up for a free one-month trial of SimpliSafe’s Interactive Monitoring service, you can get a 30% discount on all security systems . This promotion also includes a free SimpliCam security camera worth $99. This sale ends at midnight Tuesday, July 7, so if you’re shopping for home security cameras and alarm systems, snap up this hot deal.

Shop The Sale

To get the 30% discount on SimpliSafe systems and the free SimpliCam, SimpliSafe requires that you agree to a free one-month trial of its Interactive Monitoring service. Interactive Monitoring includes police dispatch and 24/7 alerts. After the free trial, the monitoring service costs $15 per month or half the price most security companies charge. If you prefer not to stick with Interactive Monitoring, cancel before the free month ends — you still get to keep the camera.

The Foundation
If you live in a small apartment or prefer to start with a basic system, The Foundation is SimpliSafe’s entry-level system. With The Foundation, you get a Base Station, a touch-to-wake Keypad, an Entry Sensor, and a Motion Sensor. Plug in the Base Station, place the other wireless components where you want them, and your system sets up automatically. You can add more sensors, motion detectors, and other alarms later if you wish. Forget The Foundation’s usual $229 cost, because if you try SimpliSafe’s Interactive Monitoring for a month, The Foundation costs $149 and you get a $99 SimpliCam for free.

Fraimic’s E Ink art frame generates art from your voice and looks incredible doing it
Fraimic's AI art canvas is one of the most thoughtfully designed smart frames I've come across.
Indoors, Interior Design, Person

We’ve seen a lot of "smart art frames" at CES over the years. Most of them feel like glorified digital photo frames in turtlenecks. However, there’s one that feels genuinely different: Fraimic, and I say that as someone deeply skeptical of this category.

The pitch appears quite compelling at first. Speak a prompt into the device, and its built-in mic sends the command to OpenAI's GPT Image 2.0, which then generates full-color artwork that lands on a Spectra 6 E Ink display.

Roborock brought FIFA World Cup fever to Miami and it was blast to experience
Roborock Miami Fifa World Cup event

World Cup fever has hit Miami, and I experienced a bit of it myself at the famed Aventura Mall. Robotic vacuum manufacturer Roborock hosted a pop-up event there all weekend, allowing guests to play games, win prizes, and find out about the company’s current lineup.

The installation, dubbed “Your Home, Your Stadium,” ran in collaboration with two of Roborock’s partnerships: Real Madrid and Miami Lighthouse for the Blind and Visually Impaired. So, naturally, there was plenty of Real Madrid memorabilia on display, including a shirt signed by France striker Kylian Mbappe. Real Madrid and Brazil legend Roberto Carlos was present on the last day of the installation to greet fans.
