Eufy, a smart home brand from Anker, has officially revealed the Eufy Smart Lock E30 — the company’s first smart lock with Matter support. It’s now available on the Eufy store for $170, and it looks like a nice addition to Eufy’s smart lock lineup, joining products like the Video Smart Lock S330 and Smart Lock S230.
If you love syncing all your smart home gadgets together and creating powerful automations, the Smart Lock E30’s Matter compatibility is a big win. This allows you to control the device via hubs like Apple Home, Google Home, Samsung SmartThings, and Amazon Alexa, giving you more flexibility than you’ll find on most other smart locks.
Of course, you can also control the lock via the Eufy mobile app, where you’ll find plenty of ways to customize its performance.
Aside from Matter, there are plenty of other reasons to be excited about Eufy’s latest release. For one, it offers a streamlined design with both a physical keyhole and keypad. There’s even a fingerprint scanner if you prefer something quick and easily accessible. Eufy says the scanner can identify prints in just 0.3 seconds.
Another cool feature is the included remote control that lets you lock or unlock the door without needing to get up from the couch. Despite all these cool features, the Eufy Smart Lock E30 is rated to last up to eight months on eight AA batteries.
The price point of the Eufy Smart Lock E30 seems spot-on at $170, as it’s more affordable than the premium Yale Assure Lock 2, yet still gets you lots of useful technology. That should make it a good choice for shoppers on a budget who still want to bring additional functionality to their front door.
For peace of mind, the device comes with 18 months of electronic protection and 36 months of mechanical coverage, ensuring it serves your home flawlessly for years to come.
Outdoor security cameras are not always practical if you live in an apartment or rental. Drilling into an exterior wall may be off-limits, while pointing a regular indoor camera through a window can create another problem once reflections start showing up after dark.
Baseus is trying to solve both issues with the new PrimeSentinel W1, a $69.99 security camera designed specifically to monitor the outdoors through glass. It mounts directly to a window without drilling and uses a 4K Starlight sensor with an F1.0 aperture for full-color monitoring during the day and at night.

Technology evolves every day, transforming how we live and work. Our devices are becoming more than tools we use. They are increasingly capable companions that help streamline day-to-day routines and spark creative ideas. If you have been waiting for the right moment to upgrade your tech setup, the Discover Samsung Shopping Event offers an opportunity to explore what connected, AI-powered living can look like.
With AI progressing so fast, it's only a matter of time before we start getting AI companions like the ones we used to see in movies like R2-D2, Wall-E, or Baymax. Now, Singapore-based OKA Technology has unveiled Mori, a cute little AI companion that looks less like a conventional home robot and more like someone turned the Pokémon Foongus into a table lamp.
Mori isn't meant to clean your house or control your smart home, but to serve as what OKA calls a "Nature Companion." It uses subtle movements, warm lighting, nature-inspired sounds, and small reactions to make its presence around the house feel calming rather than distracting. Mori can sit quietly while you read, sway along to music, welcome you when you enter a room, or encourage you to slow down for a moment without requiring a screen or a conversation.
