My favorite video doorbell is on sale for Prime Day — and it has features to protect your packages from thieves
But this isn't just any video doorbell. Eufy's E340 video doorbell actually has a second camera and AI that work in tandem to keep tabs on packages. Oh, and it's on sale for Prime Day with Amazon selling the eufy E340 video doorbell for just $94. That's $55 off the usual price tag, and a saving of 37%.
Protect your packages from thieves with Eufy's E340 dual-camera video doorbell. Not only does it have a second camera lens to watch your porch, it also uses an on-board AI to detect any packages that are dropped off and taken away. The swappable batteries also make it a lot easier to keep yopur doorbell powered on without actual doorbell wiring. They do cost extra, though.
Eufy E340 Video Doorbell with spare battery: was $199 now $129
The E340's second camera is angled down at your porch, which means any packages that are dropped off should be left in full view of the camera. The on-board AI can also detect when packages have been dropped off, and perhaps most crucially, when they have been removed — alerting you with notifications.
It may not stop porch pirates from stealing your stuff, but it does mean you'll have a full recording of them committing that crime. Which the police (or Amazon) may be interested to see.
The main doorbell camera uses infra red night vision, but the bottom instead features two built-in lights for full color night vision. So you should get more detail than your standard grainy grayscale footage — which is a big win. The lights are motion activated too, which may even scare off a few skittish thieves.
Plus, unlike other video doorbells that need to be removed and recharged, eufy built the E340 with swappable batteries. That way you can pop in a new battery and minimise the amount of time your doorbell isn't recording. Sadly you only get one battery with this particular deal, but Amazon is selling an E340 with an additional battery for $129 — down from $199.
The other great thing about the E340 video doorbell is that it's completely standalone, and doesn't require a eufy Homebase to operate. Though Homebases are required for a lot of other eufy cameras, and offer significantly more storage space in the process. Because the E340's 8GB on-board storage isn't going to last long.

Ninja's 12-in-1 Smart Double Oven Returns at Prime Day Price, Even Less Than Black Friday for a Limited Stock
Roasting vegetables for dinner while warming garlic bread usually means juggling timers and opening a hot oven more than once. The Ninja DCT451 12‑in‑1 Smart Double Oven with FlexDoor solves that dance by giving you two independent cooking spaces stacked in a countertop footprint. Open the top door alone to broil salmon without dumping heat from the lower chamber, or swing the full door to access both zones when a big batch of cookies needs swapping. It feels like squeezing a second range into the corner of the kitchen without sacrificing counter real estate. Head over to Amazon to get the Ninja DCT451 12‑in‑1 Smart Double Oven with FlexDoor for just $230, down from its usual price of $380. That's a discount of $150 and 39% off. See at Amazon Each compartment has its own heater and fan, so you can air‑fry wings up top while a sheet cake bakes below at a gentler temperature. The control panel makes mode switching straightforward. Tap air fry, roast, bake, bagel, proof, reheat, broil, toast, pizza, dehydrate, keep warm, or rapid bake, then spin the dial to set time and temp. An integrated thermometer plugs into steaks or holiday roasts, pausing the countdown when the center reaches the exact degree you pick. No more guessing by color or cutting into the meat. Capacity is generous. The bottom drawer handles a 12‑pound turkey or a pair of 12‑inch pizzas side by side. Flip the removable Smart Finish rack and you create two levels in the same zone, helpful for party appetizers. The top oven is shallower, perfect for quick toast, melted cheese sandwiches, or a small tray of veggies that would crowd a skillet. A built‑in FlavorSeal gasket keeps aromas from traveling between chambers, so desserts do not pick up garlic notes from roasting potatoes. Cleanup earns high marks. Crumb trays pull straight out the front, and the interior coating wipes clean with a damp cloth after it cools. The FlexDoor's glass panels separate for deeper scrubs when splatters happen. Ninja includes an air‑fry basket, two sheet pans, the meat probe, and a wire rack, all dishwasher safe. When the oven is idle, a simple press turns on a bright interior light that doubles as a counter lamp. For small kitchens that need big flexibility, or busy households that want dinner and dessert finished together, this countertop double oven makes daily cooking smoother. The Ninja DCT451 12‑in‑1 Smart Double Oven with FlexDoor is still available for $230 at Amazon, well below its regular $380 price. See at Amazon

Amazon Confirms Closure of Its Shanghai AI Lab
Amazon is closing an artificial intelligence (AI) lab it established in Shanghai seven years ago, the latest American company to scale back its China-based research force amid ongoing U.S.–China tensions. The lab, opened during the 2018 World Artificial Intelligence Conference (WAIC), was Amazon's flagship investment in overseas AI research. News of its closure comes just days before this year's WAIC is set to take place in Shanghai.

Amazon's Fire TV Omni QLED Series is back down to its Prime Day low
Finding a quality budget TV isn't as hard as it used to be, with numerous deals happening throughout the year. Case in point, the 65-inch configuration of Amazon's Fire TV Omni QLED Series is back down to its Prime Day low of $449.99 ($270 off). The discount makes it cheaper than the starting price of the smaller 55-inch model. Amazon's Fire TV Omni QLED features built-in microphones for Alexa commands, low input lag, and support for two-way video calling with a compatible webcam. It also provides access to Netflix, Prime Video, Disney Plus, and most major streaming services. The Fire TV Omni QLED Series sits above Amazon's standard Fire TV Omni Series and 4-Series sets, but it's not quite as advanced as the newer Omni Mini-LED Series. It features a 4K resolution and uses a layer of quantum dots to improve aspects like color accuracy and brightness. It also supports full-array local dimming, offering better backlighting and contrast than an edge-lit set. The technology also helps reduce blooming, which is that annoying glow of light around bright objects on dark backgrounds. Both of these technologies can have a big impact on overall image quality when watching movies and playing games. There are three HDMI 2.0 ports and one HDMI 2.1 port with eARC. While the TV features a 4K panel, its refresh rate tops out at 60Hz. That means you won't get to enjoy the smoother animations offered by 120Hz, which is supported by current generation consoles. That said, the TV offers support for advanced HDR formats and boasts a built-in sensor that automatically optimizes the brightness based on the ambient light in your room. Additionally, the Fire TV Omni QLED Series features Amazon's ambient experience. This turns the TV into a canvas for displaying over 2,000 works of fine art and photography, personal photos, and helpful Alexa widgets. Speaking of Alexa, the TV has integrated microphones (with an on/off switch) that offers hands-free control, making it easy to set timers, check sports scores, and turn on your favorite movie. You can also bring up a live camera feed from your home security system when someone approaches your front door.
