FAO bargain hunters: in case you happened to miss this deal when it was previously available, the Ring Stick Up Cam has dropped back down to a record-low price at Amazon. The camera is available for $55, which is $45 off of the $100 list price. The device fell to this price a couple of times in recent months, including in the lead up to the October edition of Prime Day. The camera's name doesn't have anything to do with an old-fashioned heist. Instead, the "stick up" part refers to the fact you can position the camera just about anywhere. This is a model with a rechargeable battery, so you won't have to worry about figuring out how to hook it up to a power outlet. You can keep an eye on the live 1080p camera feed using the Ring app or a compatible Echo device, such as the Echo Show. Two-way communication is available through those too. You'll get real-time notifications when the Stick Up Cam detects movement. There's the option to set up privacy zones for which the camera won't record or enable motion detection. In addition, there's a night vision mode. To store footage in the cloud, you'll need to subscribe to the Ring Protect Plan. This costs between $5 and $20 per month. The latest Ring Battery Doorbell is on sale as well. This model only debuted in August but it has already dropped from $100 to a record low of $60. Amazon says this iteration has a 23 percent improvement in battery life compared with the prior version. There's a pin-push mount that's said to make installation easier as well, while there's support for the Head-to-Toe HD video mode seen on other Ring cameras.

The Roborock Q5 DuoRoller+ robot vacuum is on sale via Amazon for just $300. Thats 33 percent off and a record low, as the regular price is $450. This is a limited time deal, for those who tend to mull things over for significant periods of time. No judgment. I do that too. In any event, this model actually made our list of the best budget robot vacuums. We loved the suction power, the precision LiDAR mapping and the robust app and voice controls. The DuoRoller+ is actually an updated version of the original Q5 with a bevy of upgrades. The suction power has gone up to 5500 Pa, the dustbin grew to 770ml and theres a self-emptying base. This model also comes with dual brushes, thus the name, which helps deal with ornery pet hair and the like. Its worth noting that Roborocks app has come a long way in recent years, if you had trouble navigating the UI back in the day. Its still not the most polished app, but it gets the job done. The battery allows for 240 minutes of continuous use on a single charge. This translates to around 3,700 square feet of cleaning per charge. The only major downside here is that the Q5 is a traditional robovac. It cant mop. You cant beat that $300 price tag though.

Microsoft has just announced its new Xbox Wireless Headset, and it now comes with a free Dolby Atmos license. Previous iterations of the headset required owners to purchase a license separately. Thats typically a $15 purchase, which covers up to 10 Windows or Xbox devices. Another notable upgrade is its battery life, which, according to Microsoft, has increased to 20 hours of playtime. Microsoft Regarding the Dolby Atmos license, Microsoft once posted that it had an exclusivity window with Dolby for Dolby Atmos and Dolby Vision. This was later proven untrue as the company clarified that the post was published in error. However, the fact that this headset comes with a license saves users some cash and could help more people try out the technology. Our best gaming headset list also contains some headsets that come with Dolby Atmos licenses, like the Audeze Maxwell. The new Xbox Wireless Headset model doesnt only have audio improvements. The microphone now has voice isolation and an improved auto-mute to prevent outside noises from garbling your audio output. Clear communication is important when communicating with the team to win, after all. Besides having Dolby Atmos support, this new headset works with Windows Sonic and DTS Headphone:X. Windows Sonic is a spatial sound solution found on Windows computers. DTS Headphone:X is another 3D sound solution also for Windows, but requires a free download from the Microsoft Store. All three are designed to help enhance game audio and make it more immersive for the player. If the sound isnt good enough for your tastes, you can adjust it using the Xbox Accessories app. To reduce latency, the Xbox Wireless Headset comes with a Qualcomm S5 Gen 2 chipset. It also has Bluetooth 5.3 support. Currently, the Xbox Wireless Headset is available for purchase for $110. While Microsoft hasnt mentioned which regions have it in stock, its available in select regions both online and from retailers.
