Getting a decent video doorbell is almost essential for any home in 2025. These smart devices make it easier to see who’s at the door — helpful for avoiding unwanted visitors or guiding delivery drivers to a safe spot. Video doorbells can also double as security cameras. And the good news is that there’s never been a better time to get one.
Right now, you can get your hands on the Blink video doorbell for just $35 for Amazon’s October Prime Day sale. That works out to an excellent 50% discount, and sees the smart doorbell return to its lowest price ever. Act fast though, as I expect this deal won’t be around for long.
You do need to be an Amazon Prime member to snag this huge discount. But other than that, ordering couldn’t be easier. You’ll also get to choose between the black and white version.

The Blink Video Doorbell’s latest iteration includes head-to-toe coverage, in HD resolution — so you can see everything going on outside your door. The battery runs for up to two years at a time, which is excellent for anyone that forgets to plug in their smart devices.
Despite the affordable price, you still get support for the smart features you know and love, like two-way voice communications, smart notifications and more. It’s perfect if you regularly find yourself waiting for a delivery but are stuck elsewhere.
The included Sync Mobile allows you to save videos using a paid subscription service, but local storage is also offered. It’s a pretty excellent offering considering the price.
