Amazon’s Big Spring Sale: Grab Exciting Discounts on Must-Have Items!
Amazon has reintroduced its Big Spring Sale, which may not rival Prime Day, but it still presents an appealing assortment of deals for those aiming to purchase high-ticket products at lower prices. This event is scheduled from March 25 to March 31 and marks only its second occurrence, yet it already seems to be a fantastic opportunity for shoppers. Importantly, you don’t have to be a Prime member to take advantage of these offers; however, Amazon asserts that members enjoy “better deals”. For those hesitant to commit, a 30-day free trial could be a worthwhile option, especially during this sale week. Just remember to cancel if you do not intend to continue.
Among the standout discounts currently available is the Arlo Pro 5S 2K Spotlight Camera (3-Pack), reduced from $449.99 to $217.78, which, as per price monitors, is a record-low price for this product. This three-camera set caters to individuals seeking reliable home security without the hassle of a complicated setup. Each unit operates wirelessly and delivers video quality at 2K resolution, enabling clear views of faces and license plates from a distance, with the ability to zoom in without loss of clarity. The cameras also feature integrated spotlights and color night vision that activates upon detecting motion, allowing for enhanced visibility in the dark.
However, it is important to note that these cameras lack local storage unless paired with the Arlo Smart Hub priced at $99, down from $110. This hub allows recording to a USB drive. Without it, an Arlo Secure subscription is necessary—costing $7.99/month for a single camera or $17.99/month for an unlimited number. This plan provides cloud recording, customizable activity zones, advanced object recognition, and smart notifications. A more comprehensive plan exists at $24.99/month, enhancing features with 24/7 emergency responses. Notably, the Pro 5S 2K is compatible with Alexa, Google Assistant, IFTTT, SmartThings, and if matched with a hub, also integrates with Apple HomeKit, showcasing its versatility for users involved in the smart home ecosystem, as highlighted in this PCMag review.
