People always ask me what to buy for Black Friday – here are 5 smart home deals you shouldn't skip

To this day, I still think the Reolink Doorbell (Battery) is one of the best options out there. It recently earned four stars in our full review as a strong, affordable option for anyone looking to boost front-door security, and I couldn't recommend it more.

Even thought it was launched a few years ago now, the Google Nest Hub Max is still one of the best smart displays you can buy. It's also a great first gadget to buy if you're just starting your smart home, and don't forget to check out our Google Nest Hub Max review for more details.

I will always love a smart home starter kit, and this one from Philips Hue is the best one I've seen all week. It includes the Hue Bridge, 2 x B22 smart bulbs and a smart button for just £40 – which is amazing seeing as the Bridge alone has an RRP of £49.99.

I personally think the Philips Hue Festavia are the best smart christmas tree lights out there. However, a lot of other people do too, which means they're hardly ever sale. That's why this Very deal is such a good find!

You can never go wrong with a basic security camera, and the Aqara G100 would be my choice. It's 2K, has 2-way audio and colour/IR night vision, which is pretty good going for a sub £30 price tag.
