Amazon cuts spring prices on August Smart Locks for Alexa, Google Home, and Siri

By

Amazon has dropped its August Smart Lock prices for springtime. As the weather warms up in many parts of the U.S., this is the season for spring cleaning, spring planting, and DIY home improvements. Adding a smart lock to your door is one of the most popular smart home security upgrades. August’s second and third-generation smart locks work with existing interior deadbolt hardware and, depending on the model and configuration, support Amazon Alexa, Google Home, and Apple HomeKit.

We’ve found Amazon’s best deals for August Smart Locks and put them all in one place. Whether you’re adding to your smart home, just starting out, or simply looking to add more security to your home, these three deals can help you save up to $62.

Even without an Amazon or Google smart home setup, the third-generation August Smart Lock adds secure entry management to your home. Use the August smartphone app to lock and unlock the door, grant temporary guest keys, and keep a record of who enters and leaves the house. Any family members who prefer to use keys can still do so, because the installation doesn’t block their use. With August’s DoorSense technology you can check the status of your door remotely and lock or unlock it directly from your phone.

Echo Spot vs. Echo Pop: Which Amazon device is better for your smart home?
The Echo Spot on a shelf.

The Echo Spot is a new smart alarm clock from Amazon, though it looks eerily similar to the existing Echo Pop. Both offer a similar, semi-ircle design -- though the Echo Spot is equipped with a touchscreen while the Pop is largely controlled via voice commands. There are a handful of other differences between the Echo Spot and Echo Pop, and since the Echo Spot is much more expensive than the Pop, you'll want to take a close look at both before opting for the fancy new gadget.

From pricing and design to sound quality and additional features, here's everything you need to know about the Echo Spot and Echo Pop.

The latest Philips smart lock can read your palm to open your front door
The Philips Palm Reader smart lock on a blue door.

Philips just launched a slew of new products, headlined by the Philips Home Access 5000 Series Palm Recognition Smart Lock. The device works not just with a physical key, PIN code, or Philips mobile app, but also with the built-in palm scanner -- making it one of the most futuristic smart locks of 2024.

According to Philips, the scanner works by tracking "unique palm vein patterns," making it nearly impossible to hack and offering families an ultra-secure way to lock their front door. Setup is just as easy as most other smart locks, thanks to built-in Wi-Fi so you can get up and running without the need for a secondary bridge. It also works with voice commands via Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant.

Philips launches its first smart lock with Wi-Fi that can be controlled from anywhere
The Philips Smart Deadbolt with Built-In Wi-Fi being installed on a door.

Philips has officially launched its first smart deadbolt with built-in Wi-Fi (aptly named the Philips Smart Deadbolt with Built-In Wi-Fi), giving users the ability to control their front door regardless of location. There's no need for a secondary bridge or other devices, as the lock itself connects directly to the Philips Home Access App via Wi-Fi, making setup a quick and easy process.

Further streamlining the setup process is the retrofit design of the smart lock. It should easily fit over most existing hardware, so you won't have to change out any deadbolts or worry about passing out new keys. That means the outside portion of your front door will largely look unchanged, though you'll still benefit from "smarts" such as voice command integration, auto-unlock function, door position sensing, and remote access via the mobile app.
