I've tested dozens of smart locks, and the one I keep on my door is $100 off right now

ZDNET's key takeaways The Aqara U100 smart lock was originally priced at $230, but it is currently discounted to $143. This smart lock is the most versatile I've tested; it offers a variety of unlocking options, a user-friendly app, and easy integration with Apple Home. The Aqara U100 drains the battery quickly, and the app doesn't always alert users, resulting in reduced performance within four months of use. $167.76 at Amazon $189.99 at Best Buy more buying choices The Aqara U100 Smart Lock

How to get free Windows 10 security updates through October 2026: Two ways

MicroStockHub/Getty Images With just a few months remaining until the Windows 10 end-of-support date, Microsoft seems to have belatedly realized that owners of tens of millions of consumer PCs running Windows 10 aren't ready to replace their old computers, and they're also not about to fork over $30 for a one-year Extended Security Updates (ESU) subscription. So, at the end of June, just days before the end of its fiscal year, the company waved the white flag and announced new "free enrollment
