Amazon Ring fixed a security vulnerability in its Ring doorbell last month that could have potentially allowed hackers access to homeowners’ networks through Wi-Fi passwords. In December 2019, Ring faced more security issues when a family from Tennessee claimed that a man hacked into their Amazon Ring security camera. The hacker reportedly used it to talk to an 8-year-old girl in her bedroom. Turns out the whole thing may not have been hacking, but just poor password use by the owner. When Digital Trends reached out to Ring about the most recent incident, a representative had this to say: “Customer trust is important to us and we take the security of our devices seriously. Our security team has investigated this incident and we have no evidence of an unauthorized intrusion or compromise of Ring’s systems or network. Recently, we were made aware of an incident where malicious actors obtained some Ring users’ account credentials (e.g., username and password) from … [Read more...] about How to prevent your Ring smart cameras from being hacked

A Newport Beach, California-based manufacturer of smart televisions and other consumer electronics is getting into the bathroom business with a new line of smart mirrors that offer users a lot more than just their reflection. The company is called Evervue USA and its wild line of mirrors are called Qaio, “The Smarter Mirror.” When all its bells and whistles are powered down, the mirror does offer a user’s basic reflection but it can also do a whole bunch more. First, its standard panels are smart displays that can broadcast local weather, stocks, transit times, reminders and news, some in 4K Ultra HD resolution. In addition to coming with two remote controls to direct controls and lighting options, the Qaio mirror is also pre-loaded with Amazon’s Alexa digital assistant app, as well as its own proprietary smart mirror app and a clock. The 5mm-thick mirror glass is polished at the edges so the TV vanishes completely when it’s turned off. Users can direct … [Read more...] about Qaio smart mirrors give your bathroom a window on the world

Life gets busy. With long days at the office, taking care of a family, making time for friends, and more competing for time on our schedules, it’s tempting to trade in a gym session for some quality time on the couch whenever you get the chance. But with Mirror, the gym is right at home: Part mirror, part LCD screen, it has on-demand workouts built into it. You’re probably thinking that there’s plenty of at-home fitness equipment on the market, but this one isn’t an eyesore. Unlike a spin bike or treadmill, it also brings you a huge variety of exercises from yoga to barre, and even weight training. But at $1,500, Mirror is an investment you want to be sure about. We visited Mirror’s HQ in NYC to test it out and to see if it’s really worth cancelling that gym membership for. Looks sleek and high-end For $1,500, one would hope the product not only works well but looks nice too — especially if it’s hanging in the middle of your home. … [Read more...] about Dread the gym? This smart mirror delivers your fitness fix at home

Canary View Score Details “The Canary View is compelling for value hunters, but its motion detection isn't reliable.” Compact, well-designed hardware Fantastic 1080p day and night imaging Geo-fencing features supporting automatic activation Works with Amazon Alexa, Google Home and Wink App stability issues during setup Patchy motion detection Subscription membership required for full features Launched on Indiegogo way back in 2013, the original Canary All-in-One was a pioneering smart home security solution, integrating a surveillance camera, 90-decibel siren, and climate monitor. Broadly effective, the debut suffered from a few rough edges that were subsequently refined in last year’s Canary Flex ($199), which dropped the siren and climate monitor features in favor of a sleeker design, weatherproofing, A.I. support, and (as the name suggests) flexible mounting options. We loved it. With the Canary View at … [Read more...] about Canary View review
