The prices for smart home devices have come down dramatically in recent years. You can find a smart video doorbell for as low as $30 these days, and right now you can pick up a smart security camera for half that price. The TP-Link Tapo is a 1080p indoor camera that features motion detection, two-way audio and local SD card storage. And for a limited time you can snag one for just $16.

If it's the weekend and you know it clap your hands ::clap clap::. You know it is, because it's time for another Apps of the Week roundup. This week we have some incredible picks for you including a video game-esque workout app, a powerful text-to-speech app, and perhaps the most anticipated and talked about app...ever. You don't want to miss this!

Gaming on iOS is extremely underrated. I say that as someone who plays Call of Duty Mobile just about every day on my iPhone. Sure the screen is a little small, but the graphics look great, and my Bluetooth controller makes it feel almost exactly the same as it does on a full-blown console. If you don't already have a controller, you need to get one ASAP, especially since Apple is now allowing game emulators in the App Store. There's already a fantastic emulator available, with full gamepad support, called Delta, so we thought now would be a great time to review the best Bluetooth controllers for iPhone.

Sometimes a deal doesn't need a lengthy explanation. This is one of those times. Amazon has this stylish iPhone case on sale for less than $10. It has built-in magnets for MagSafe charging and accessories, it has military grade drop protection, and right now you can snag one for just $8.

Honestly, this deal should need no explanation. It's a 10000mAh MagSafe battery pack, which is double the capacity of the standard battery, it's made by ESR, which is a fairly well-known brand, and it's only $12. We rarely see these things drop below $20, let alone $15, so take advantage of it while you can. It's an Amazon Lightning deal, meaning it will expire either when inventory runs out or at the end of the day.

Do you like clever, inexpensive tech products that turn out to be extremely useful? This deal is for you. Amazon has LaView's 2K wireless indoor/outdoor security camera at a 65% discount right now. The camera is shaped like a light bulb, and thus can be plugged into any standard light socket. It features 2K resolution, 360-degree panoramic view, advanced night vision, 2-way audio and motion detection, and right now it's on sale for an unbelievable $14.

Tell me it's the weekend, without telling me. It's time for another Apps of the Week roundup! This week we have some great picks for you including a voice-controlled budget tracker, an AI-infused journal app, and an app that can generate hit songs in minutes. And as always, we've selected a fun new game for you to check out.

This might be the cheapest HomeKit smart device we've ever featured, if you look at the per-plug pricing. Amazon has this 4-pack of Meross Smart Plug Minis available at a staggering discount. The plugs support HomeKit, Alexa and Google Assistant, they are ETL and FCC certified, and right now the 4-pack is on sale for $26—or just over $6 per plug.

Spigen cases always make our buyer's guides for the best iPhone cases because they are reliable, minimal, and affordable. We especially like their Ultra Hybrid MagFit case, and today the iPhone 15 model is available at a nice discount. The case is completely clear, save for the white MagSafe emblem on the back, it's thin and flexible, and it has raised bezels over the display and camera for added protection. For a limited time, you can grab one (or several) for just $14.

You know the old saying, "you can never have too many chargers?" Well, this deal is the embodiment of that. Amazon right now has this bundle of two Anker USB-C chargers and two USB-C cables at a fantastic discount. You get two 20W USB-C power adapters, with both USB-C and USB-A ports, and two 5-foot USB-C to USB-C cables for just $13.

It's been a while since we've had a good car charger deal, so let's change that today. This is the LISEN Fast Charging Car Adapter, and Amazon currently has it at a 50% discount. As you can see, the charger sort of looks like the face of a robot, with two USB-C ports (the eyes) and a single USB-A port (the mouth). It offers 66W of max power for fast-charging, it has a colored LED ring for ambient lighting, it's both UL and FCC certified, and right now you can grab one (or several) for just $10.

No, you aren't dreaming. It really is the weekend, and that means it's time for another Apps of the Week roundup! This week we have some great picks for you including a shift-based work calendar, a budget-tracker with personalized financial advice, and a social media network for pets. And as always, we've selected a fun new game for you to check out.

This product really hits on all the buzzwords. Bluetooth, smart, E-Ink—thermo, for crying out loud. Seriously, though, if you are sensitive to temperature or humidity, have a greenhouse, or you're just a tech or data nerd that wants to to track these things, this is a great deal. You get two of GoveeLife's E-Ink Bluetooth Thermo-Hygrometers which are accurate, easy to read and can be paired with other smart devices, for just $14.

Obviously if you are driving on a busy road or performing surgery, don't stop what you're doing, but for everyone else, listen up!

This charging stand has a Made for MagSafe iPhone charging pad (with a 170-degree tilt radius) and spots to charge your AirPods and Apple Watch, it folds completely flat for travel, and it comes with a 20W power adapter. Get it while you can at more than 50% off!

If you've been waiting for a good magnetic battery deal, here is your chance. This ESR for MagSafe Battery Pack is one of the few we've ever seen drop under $20. Features include 10000mAh capacity, which is double what these small power banks usually offer, strong magnets, and a 20W USB-C port for fast wireless charging, and right now it's on sale for $18.

Deal-hunters, listen up! We got a live one here. For today only (and really for only the next 10 hours or so), B&H Photo is taking more than 60% off the Kensington iPad Docking Station. This is a high-end dock/stand for your iPad Air or iPad Pro that features a bunch of ports, wireless charging pads for your iPhone and AirPods, and an SD card reader. It comes with a 3-year warranty, and right now it's just $70.

Here is a great deal for anyone looking for a budget-friendly charging station for the nightstand, kitchen, or even for travel.

We're big fans of the now Logitech-owned Blue brand when it comes to plug-and-play microphones. I'm pretty sure everyone at iDB has owned a Yeti mic at some point, and I am currently using the Yeti X. Well today's deal gives you the chance to snag a Blue USB mic at a fraction of the price. It's the Snowball model, and it's perfect for everything from Twitch streaming to making Zoom or Google Meet calls, and right now it's on sale for just $30.

We have had an impressive run of battery pack deals here lately, and they don't seem to be stopping. The latest one is this cute little portable charger from Baseus. Despite fitting in the palm of your hand, this battery pack features 22.5W of max power for fast charging, built-in USB-C and Lightning cables, an LED display, and right now it's on sale for just $18.

It has a 20000mAh capacity, which is double what battery packs in this price range typically have, and a fast-charging USB-C PD port, and right now you can grab one for just $18.

Get rid of those old, slow-charging, boring black bricks you call battery packs, and upgrade to this one from Anker at a nice discount. The Anker 533 Power Bank features 30W max power for fast-charging, two USB-C PD ports, a built-in Smart Display for charging status, and right now it's on sale for just $29.

We feature a lot of USB-C dongles and accessories on iDB, but most of the time they have a bunch of extra stuff like HDMI ports, USB-A ports, and card readers. Not today.

With summer now just around the corner, it's time to go down the check list of items you are going to need. Sunscreen? Check. Swimsuit and beach towel? Check. Grilling charcoal? Check. Portable Bluetooth speaker? If you don't already have one, we really like the UE Wonderboom 3. It offers impressive 360-degree sound, it's both waterproof and floatable, the battery can last for up to 14 hours, and right now it's on sale for just $68.

I'm secretly a huge EDC nerd, and for those unfamiliar with the term, it stands for Every Day Carry, and it's essentially a catch-all term for the cool/handy items you carry with you on a daily basis. This includes everything from wallets to flashlights, and of course multi-tools like this one from Gerber. The Gerber Gear Armbar Drive is a popular item in the EDC community thanks to its small size, sturdy construction, and bevy of onboard tools, and right now it's on sale for just $30.

This is not a drill. I repeat, this is not a drill. Amazon right now has a 3-in-1 iPhone charging station for under $15.

The 622 is a thin, portable MagSafe battery, with strong magnets and a built-in folding kickstand, and right now you can pick one (or several) up for just $35.

This isn't what I would consider a 'sexy' deal. It's not going to catch your eye, and have you picturing how different your life would be if you bought it. But if we're being honest here, if you're a Mac user and have $47 laying around, there is no reason why you shouldn't grab at least one of these Apple 96W USB-C chargers at 42% off.

Anker is of course known for its success in the battery and charging accessory space, but did you know it also makes awesome webcams?

We are obviously huge fans of Apple's hardware, but the company also makes some solid accessories. The only problem is, their accessories tend to be expensive, and are rarely given notable discounts. Fortunately, today is one of those rare occasions. We have Apple Watch bands, the Apple Pencil (2nd gen) stylus, and more Apple-branded accessories on sale at up to 80% off.
