Prime Da7 2024 is almost here, and early Prime Day deals are going strong. Unsurprisingly, some of the best deals are for Amazon’s own products, like this Blink Video Camera Bundle for $59.99 or this 4K Fire TV for $149.99.
If you’re a Prime Member looking for a video doorbell deal and you wouldn’t mind a free smart speaker too, consider this Blink Video Doorbell and Amazon Echo Pop Bundle, which will run you $34.99 (the same devices would cost $110 if purchased separately).
Blink is owned by Amazon, so it’s no surprise to see the doorbell get a big Prime Day discount. However, it is surprising how much you’ll get for your $35: The Blink Video Doorbell with the Sync Module 2 alone normally costs $69.99, and the Echo Pop normally goes for $39.99.
The Blink Video Doorbell can be wired or use batteries. It uses your phone as a chime bell, has two-way audio so that you can communicate with guests from your phone, and supports 1080p resolution and infrared night vision. The Sync Module 2 lets you control up to 10 Blink devices with your phone and use local storage for your video files instead of paying for cloud storage, but you’ll need to buy a USB flash drive of up to 256 GB. Keep in mind that you will still need a Blink subscription to use all of Blink’s features. The Blink subscription plan starts at $30 a year for Blink Basic.
The Echo Pop is Amazon’s latest, most budget-friendly Echo smart speaker. It’s an “excellent” smart speaker according to PCMag’s review. One of its best features has nothing to do with the speaker abilities— if you use the Eero Mesh wifi system, the speaker doubles as a node to expand your wifi coverage.
