Look, there are a lot of Prime Big Deal Days discounts floating around. No one would argue otherwise. That includes a ton of fantastic smart home deals. But we can all agree that sometimes, there are deals worth calling out separately when they are really good. That applies to this next deal on the new Ring Battery video doorbell. Normally $100, it’s only $60 today, saving you $40 or 40%. It’s super easy to install, runs on a built-in rechargeable battery, as the name implies, and offers head-to-toe color night vision support. You can see a lot more of what’s going on at your front door. If you don’t already have a video doorbell, do not skip this deal folks. It’s my favorite thing in my smart home.
A video doorbell, if you’re not familiar, allows you to answer your door and talk to whoever is there without ever opening the front door. More importantly, you can connect remotely to the doorbell even if you’re not home. That allows you to communicate with mail or package delivery pros, for example. Or, even communicate with someone bringing your Uber or Doordash order. The Ring Battery is a video doorbell that offers all of that, with better features than previous generations. We loved our time with the Ring Battery Pro model at Digital Trends. Reviewer Jon Bitner gave it four and a half stars praising its crisp video resolution, easily removable battery, and versatile installation support.
Ring claims this model offers 66% more vertical coverage from head-to-toe so you can see more of the people or persons at your door. You can see what they’re doing or not doing, and even respond via two-way audio. You’ll get smart alerts and notifications on your phone when movement is detected. That allows you to respond nearly instantly and in time with what’s happening.
Ring’s smart devices connect with Amazon Alexa, too. So, you can receive custom notifications on Echo devices, launch videos with an Echo device that has a screen — like Echo Show — or even interact via Alexa-enabled devices. The Ring Security and Privacy Control center ensures you’re always informed, plus you can customize the settings to make sure you’re only getting the information you want to know.
Normally $100, the Ring Battery is only $60 today which saves you $40. That’s a great deal, especially on this new model that’s super easy to install and use.

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.
