It's a shock when someone actually calls your phone, but when someone shows up at your doorstep unexpected is even more of a surprise. Instead of hiding in another room, a video doorbell allows you to check on your front porch from your phone. From the doorbell's live stream, you'll be able to tell if it's your Amazon delivery, the neighborhood kids, or someone you'd rather not encounter.

A video doorbell is also a great way to get immediate notifications when a package is delivered, instead of checking your Amazon account every few minutes. If you're ready for a doorbell upgrade that adds to your home security, check out these sales at Amazon during the week of Oct. 30.

Why we like it

With 2K video resolution, the Arlo Video Doorbell gets the job done perfectly, and it's currently 38% off at Amazon. Instead of the list price of $129.99, the Arlo is down to just $79.99. The Arlo focuses on showing you exactly what you'd want to see when checking on your front porch: a head-to-toe view with a 180 degree-wide angle.

With the Arlo app, you'll be able to get real-time notifications from motion alerts and live streaming. There's also a night vision mode which is especially great during darker winter months. The doorbell's weather resistance means it'll hold up in any weather.

Why we like it

Increasing your home's security system doesn't have to come with a huge cost. With Amazon's sale price, the TP-Link Smart Video Doorbell can be all yours for just $49.99, marked down from the list price of $69.99. While some video doorbells use 1080p resolution, the TP-Link uses 2K which means you'll have a sharper image to see fine details like faces or license plate information.

Instead of getting up to open the door, you can arrange for the doorbell to call your phone, allow you to answer the door with your smartphone.

A common downfall of video doorbells is giving you alerts that you don't need — like when the cat walks by. Instead, the TP-Link allows you to set specific activity zones to monitor for motion or people.
