Among the first models out of the gate that ships Apple Home-compatible with Ultra Wideband tech that “just works,” we are now tracking the first solid price drop on the new Schlage Sense Pro UWB Smart Deadbolt Lock via Amazon. 

Google’s latest Nest Cam Indoor will run you at least $92 at Amazon right now, but Best Buy is now offering “excellent” condition open-box units down at $66 right now. 

While it might not be the newer wired model, we are tracking a chance at seriously deep savings on what is still the latest wireless Google Nest Wi-Fi Video Doorbell down at just $63– this model costs $180 straight from Google.

Update 6/28: Nanoleaf has decided to extend the annual Nanoleaf Day sale through July 29.

We might be well into Black Friday in July, by the annual Nanoleaf Day sale starts today with loads of solid price drops across its lineup of smart lighting solutions. There are some notable “Doorcrasher” deals available if you get in there quickly (limited stock) that deliver a solid 50% off everything from its light-up Pegboard Desk Dock through to the Block Combo XL Smarter Kit, and the PC Screen Mirror Lightstrip, but that’s just for starters. 

You will find the latest Google Nest Doorbell (wired, 3rd gen) marked down from $180 to just over $140 at Amazon right now to come within $5 or so to this year’s Prime Day deal, but you can score one for better than half that price courtesy of this Best Buy open-box deal today. 

As we reported over at 9to5Google, the new Google Home Speaker is now up for pre-order for the first time starting today. Listings are now live at Best Buy and directly on the official Google Store. 

Alongside a long list of Pixel 10 deals live ahead of Prime Day, and as much as $600 off open-box units at Best Buy, today we are taking a closer look at some deals on the latest Google Nest Doorbell 3rd gen. They are now down at $140 on Amazon, but there are also some much lower prices live courtesy of Best Buy at over $100 off. 

The official ecobee Memorial Day sale starts today. The smart home brand is getting a head start on things this year, delivering much of the same deals we saw during the Amazon Big Spring Sale alongside up to $120 off complete home monitoring and security bundles. 

While the ultra-rare discounts we tracked at Crutchfield on the Philips Hue Bridge Pro is sold out (for now, anyway), we also spotted an offer on the seldom discounted Philips Hue White and Color Ambiance Twilight Bedside Lamp as well. 

If you’re quick, you can still lock in the extremely rare deal price on the latest Philips Hue Bridge Pro. As part of its wide-ranging May sale event, Crutchfield is delivering a chance to actually save some cash on this thing and you can still lock it in. 

Update 5/12: This rare discounts is still live, but the Crutchfield listing is now marked with a low stock warning.

Deals on the latest Philips Hue Bridge Pro have been rare at best – it was hard to even get at full price for a while there. While it is still out of stock on the official Hue site, it has been readily available on Amazon at full price some time now, and we are catching a rare discount today at just over $79 via Crutchfield. 

Crutchfield has now launched a massive spring/early summer Black Friday in May sale loaded with discounts on everything from the CarPlay/Android Auto in-dash digital multimedia receivers and car speakers it is well known for right through to Samsung smart TVs, up to $1,000 off select Canon cameras and lenses, and Philips Hue offers including a rare deal on the Philips Hue Bridge Pro down at $79.19 shipped. The Crutchfield Black Friday in May sale is now in full swing right here and you can scope it out in more detail down below. 

Update 4/28: This deal at Amazon is now live once again, and the “excellent” condition open-box deal has now dropped another $8 for nearly 40% in savings on the new list price. Details below.

Today Amazon is bringing back the Big Spring Sale price on Google’s latest Nest Cam Outdoor (Wired, 2nd Gen), landing within $1 of the lowest price we have ever tracked there. And we have open-box units at even lower prices than that. Details below.

Update: This deal is now live once again.

Deals on the latest Google Nest Learning Thermostat (4th gen) has remained relatively light since release. There have been some solid discounts in the $60 range, but nothing overly deep just yet. As of right now the regularly $280 latest model with the included Nest Temperature Sensor is on sale for $239.99 at Amazon, but Best Buy is serving up a deep $120 price drop on its “excellent” condition open-box units. 

Update 3/25: This deal is now live again as part of the now live Amazon Big Spring Sale.

We have been tracking a steady string of price drops on the latest Google Nest Cam Indoor (Wired, 3rd Gen) at 25% off, but Amazon just dropped the Berry red model to a new all-time low at 31% off. 

While the official Google Store and Best Buy are now charging full price, Amazon is remaining particularly aggressive with its discounts on the latest Google Nest Cam Indoor (Wired, 3rd Gen) at up to 25% off the list price. 

The Google Store is now offering $20 off all three colors of its latest Nest Cam Indoor (Wired, 3rd Gen), but Amazon is currently undercutting that price on the Berry and Snow White models at 25% off the list price and we have open-box units for even less than that.  

Eve is a well known smart home brand around here, with a rather extensive lineup of sensors, outdoor weather stations, light switches, plugs, and a whole lot more, most of which with updated Matter support. At CES 2026, the brand is introducing its very first indoor thermostat to expand its footprint in your home.

CES 2026 is about to officially kick-off and the new product reveals are already starting. Next up, we are taking a look at the latest from smart lighting brand Govee with three new flagship products headlined by its most advanced floor lamp yet and a pair of Sky Ceiling Lights, one of which brings “true-to-life sky illumination indoors.”

During the Black Friday festivities, we caught a rare deal on the latest Level Lock+ (Matter) Smart Lock with Apple Home Key, and it is now live once again down at $249 shipped courtesy of an Amazon Lightning Deal at nearly 25% off the list price. Details await below. 

Update 12/3: Amazon has extended the Black Friday pricing on the 2025 Google Nest gear for what appears to be one more day based on a series of new countdown clocks on the listing pages.

While Amazon does not have official countdown clocks running on the Google Nest Black Friday pricing like it does on the Pixel 10 deals, it does appear as though the deals on the new Google smart home gear that released earlier this year will jump back up in price (Google seems to think it will anyway). Today might be your last shot at the official holiday pricing on the 2025 Nest indoor and outdoor cam as well as Google’s latest 3rd gen doorbell.
