| ![](/n.gif) | | PC World - 28 Jun (PC World)This year’s Prime Day is just a few weeks away and we’re already seeing some unbelievable discounts. Like, this Blink Video Doorbell plus Echo Pop bundle is just $35 at Amazon, down from $110!
What makes this early Prime deal so fantastic is that you couldn’t get either of these products alone for this price: the Blink Video Doorbell with Sync Module normally costs $70, while the Echo Pop is normally $40.
The Blink Video Doorbell lets you remotely answer your door from anywhere using your smartphone, with crystal-clear 1080p HD video during the day and infrared video during night.
The coolest part, however, is that it comes equipped with two-way audio, allowing you to speak with your visitors in real time. This can come in handy when you have packages delivered and you need to give special instructions, like where to place them.
The Amazon Echo Pop is another useful tool for smartening up your home. This compact and powerful smart speaker brings you access to Alexa and all its cool, smart features.
The two devices work seamlessly together. You can get Blink Video Doorbell alerts to the Echo Pop, and you can use the Echo Pop to chat with whoever’s at your door. If paired with the included Sync Module, you can ask Alexa to answer the front door, adding an extra layer of convenience to your daily routine.
Setting up both the Blink Video Doorbell and the Echo Pop is super quick and easy, so there’s no hassle to getting everything working.
This is seriously an incredible offer, so don’t miss out. At just $35 for Prime members, this bundle is a steal. If you aren’t a Prime member yet, sign up for a 30-day free trial to unlock this deal and the many more Prime Day deals that are coming up!

| ![](/n.gif) | | PC World - 28 Jun (PC World)We love the Kindle Scribe, but it’s even better when you upgrade it with premium accessories—and for a limited time, you can score the Kindle Scribe Essentials bundle for less than you’d pay for the Scribe alone. It’s an absolute knock-your-pants-off bargain.
This sweet bundle is now just $324 at Amazon (normally $520) and here’s what you get: the 64GB Kindle Scribe, the Premium Pen, the Leather Folio Cover, and a power adapter.
The Kindle Scribe is Amazon’s first Kindle that handles both reading and writing. It features a spacious 10.2-inch 300PPI Paperwhite display that’s glare-free and front-lit, so you get the same reading experience that has made Kindle the most popular e-reader on the market.
But since this is a Kindle Scribe, you can also journal, sketch, take notes, and more. It’s basically a digital notebook, allowing you to jot stuff on pages and keep your thoughts organized.
With the Kindle Scribe, your handwritten notes and drawings are saved directly on the pages of your ebooks and documents—a deadly sin with printed books, but perfectly acceptable now.
One of the coolest things about the Kindle Scribe is its ability to convert handwritten notes to text. Whatever you scribble down can be turned into text that’s legible to everyone, not just you.
This bundle comes with a Kindle Premium Pen, which has two features on top of the Basic Pen: a built-in eraser for easy corrections and a Shortcut button that can do things like highlight text or create sticky notes.
And the Kindle Leather Folio Cover is a sleek, modern protective cover that turns into a stand for convenient reading. It’ll also automatically wake up and sleep your Kindle Scribe as you open and close.
Grab this incredible Kindle Scribe bundle before this deal expires! It’s not even a Prime-only deal, although it wouldn’t hurt to try a 30-day free trial of Prime now that Prime Day is just around the corner.

| ![](/n.gif) | | PC World - 28 Jun (PC World)Recording your video game sessions isn’t exactly a new idea. It’s the entire basis of Twitch and its countless game streamers, both professional and aspirational. But game streaming requires a collection of special tools and techniques if you want to stand out.
Or, at least, it used to. Now, with its latest beta update, Steam will basically do it all for you. Steam has long been able to take screenshots and stream game sessions around a local network, but this new feature is laser-focused on recording and sharing your experiences.
With Nvidia’s Shadowplay now on the outs, this new one by Steam is probably the tool that’s most likely to be installed on gamers’ PCs already (or it will be once it moves from beta to full release). This should make Steam the most prolific game recording software in the world, even before most users are aware of the capability.

I tried out the tool with a few sessions of Hades II and found it remarkable how well the tool runs without even thinking about it.
Set it up to work in the background—shaving a bit of performance off your GPU, but not anything I particularly noticed—and your game sessions will just appear in your recordings and screenshots folder. (You can always navigate to the non-DRM files in Windows Explorer, but Steam includes a video player within its own interface, too.)
From this view, you can clip and export sections of your session, grab a screenshot, or send it to other PCs or even your phone, all without leaving the player window.
Here’s a quick snippet I grabbed in just a few seconds with no editing. Note how the tool preserves my ultrawide monitor’s 21:9 aspect ratio, something a lot of similar software struggle to do.
#id667d78ad822b9 .jw-wrapper::before { content: `Hades ii gameplay recording` !important; }
By default, Steam saves sessions in 120-minute chunks and at 12Mbps video (which was about the level of a YouTube stream for me), and it asks just under 11GB of space to keep the buffer running.
Naturally, all of that is adjustable within the Game Recording menu, as are the shortcuts to add specific markers. You can even bind a shortcut to a controller button—those back-mounted “paddle” buttons showing up on more and more gamepads seem like a perfect fit here.
Valve says that game developers will be able to automatically add markers and snippet sections to these recording sessions at some point, though I’m not seeing them at the moment. Other features include an easy-to-share QR code link generator and temporary links for “Hey, look at this!” shares with your friends. Oh, and it works on the Steam Deck.
All of this reminds me of the social tools baked into the PlayStation and Xbox, but with more options available for modern tech-savvy users. Valve’s continual work to make Steam the de facto platform for PC gaming seems to be paying off.
You can try out the tool by enabling the Steam beta and then checking out the Game Recording tab in the Steam Settings menu.
