Amazon’s wireless Ring Doorbell Pro returns to best price ever at up to $100 off

All-New Ring Battery Doorbell Pro
Amazon low/$130

While the new Ring Wired Doorbell Pro with 4K visuals did just debut during the Amazon Device reveal event in September, the 2024 Ring Battery Doorbell Pro remains in the lineup and is now seeing a deep discount. This model carried a regular $230 list price up until earlier this month when it appears to have received a permanent price drop down to $200, but you can now land one down at the $129.99 low once again.

Amazon’s popular Blink Mini 2 smart cam just dropped to $18 all-time low, 2-pack down at $28 (Up to 60% off)

We are now tracking a deal at Amazon that drops its ultra-affordable Blink Mini 2 smart camera down to $17.99 with free shipping for Prime members or in orders over $35. This is regularly a $40 unit, which is now seeing a straight-up $22 markdown. Today’s 55% discount lands it $2 below its previous all-time low and our mention from last month when it hit $20 as part of Amazon’s early Prime Big Deal Day sale. The entire Blink Mini 2 lineup, which includes both 2- and 3-pack along with the outdoor adapter, has hit a new all-time low today, so be sure to grab them. While the newer Blink Mini 2K+ offers sharper 2K resolution, the current discount on the original Blink Mini 2 makes it an easy recommendation. Head below for more details.
