Google Nest Doorbell is $50 off today

Google Nest Hello Video Doorbell

Smart home devices just keep getting smarter, and there’s a good reason why you might want security devices like the ones you’ll find in these Nest Camera deals, Google Home and Google Nest Mini deals, as well as these Amazon Echo deals. And right now, at Best Buy, you can save $50 on the Google Nest Hello Smart Wi-Fi Video Doorbell (Wired). It’s down to only $180, a steep drop from its regular price of $230. With all the safety, convenience, and peace of mind a Google Nest Doorbell provides, you can’t afford not to take advantage of this deal.

If you want a video doorbell that is solidly built and reliable, yet subtle and smart as can be, the Google Nest Hello Doorbell could be for you. It’s super easy to install, which is great news if you’re new to the world of video doorbells or smart home gadgets (you install it directly into your current doorbell wiring). And the video is not only clear, but responsive, too. Here, see how it matches up to Amazon’s offering with our comparison of Google Nest Hello vs. Ring Video Doorbell.

One thing we love about the Nest Hello Video Doorbell is the quality of the HDR video and how it captures the smallest of details, even at night. This video doorbell is designed with advanced motion detection software, so you can be alerted when someone (or something) is approaching your door. The doorbell doesn’t need to be pushed for it to begin working its magic. Another great feature: You can talk to whoever is at your door, and even leave a pre-recorded message if you can’t come to the entrance of your home. (This is super easy to set up with the app on your phone.)

And we can’t get over how smart this video doorbell is. It’s great at recognizing regular visitors, like family and friends, and can notify you via smartphone when they’re arriving. That’s perhaps the best feature of this smart doorbell — no matter where you are or what you’re doing you can know who is approaching your home. Also, in addition to the HDR camera, there’s 160-degree vision, which gives you a wider field of view than ever before. For an extra subscription fee, you can sign up for Nest Aware, which allows you to be notified when a package is left, and more options to keep you feeling safe and secure, and to give you even more peace of mind. At $150 off, this smart doorbell is a major bargain you don’t want to miss.

Built for pet hair: This robot vacuum was $900 but is now $220
The bObsweep PetHair Slam robot vacuum cleans the floor while a nearby dog looks at its food.

It isn’t all that uncommon to find a discount on one of the best robot vacuums, but it is pretty rare to find savings like you can currently find on the bObsweep PetHair Slam robot vacuum. This robot vacuum would normally cost $900, but right now at Best Buy you can grab it for just $220. This is a massive savings of $680, but you’ll need to act quickly. This is a limited time deal and the clock is ticking. Best Buy is also including free shipping with your purchase.

Why you should buy the bObsweep PetHair Slam robot vacuum
One of the first things you need to look out for when adding a robot vacuum to your smart home is capability. It isn’t going to add much convenience to your life if it doesn’t function at least as well as a traditional vacuum. The bObsweep PetHair Slam is a good addition to homes with pets and kids distinctly because it has such great vacuuming capabilities. It easily lifts fur off floors, and it makes easy work of large scraps and bits as well as dust and dirt that collects along baseboards and in corners. It competes well with the best robot vacuums for pet hair and can do the job on any home or office floor surface.

Best security camera deals: Get a single camera for $30 and more
Arlo Pro 4 Spotlight Camera

Whether you're working at home or still going to an office, having security cameras around your has can offer you peace of mind, but what might not give you as much peace of mind is finding the right one. Luckily, the best security cameras usually have some form of deal on them, and we've collected some of the best here for you to save you the trouble. So, whether you need a whole-house setup or just a single camera, there are deals for every need.
Today's Best Security Camera Deals
While there are a lot of great deals, our favorite is probably the Swann Enforcer bundle, with four 1080p cameras and local storage. That last bit is important if you have choppy internet and can't rely on cloud storage; plus, you don't have to deal with annoying subscription services, which is always a big plus. The downside is that it's a wired system, so you'll have to run cabling, and not everybody is willing to do that. On the other hand, if you want a wireless system, the Arlo Pro 4 Spotlight Camera Security Bundle is a great option since it comes with a charging station and costs $300 for three cameras, so essentially $100 per camera for 2k and a bunch of other functions.

Of course, if you only need one camera, the Arlo Essential Indoor Camera and the eufy Security SoloCam L40 are both great options. Which one you go for depends wholly on whether you feel the need for 2k resolution or not, although if you're doing it for an indoor space that isn't too big, it might not be worth going for 2k, especially if you only need a pet camera.
