The downside for me is the visible spectrum LED light with no infra red option.

Logitech's Circle View cameras have infra red LEDs, and the cameras capture video in the invisible-to-you infra red spectrum at night, playing back that video as visible-spectrum black-and-white. What does that mean? It means to the human eye it stays dark outside while the cameras still can capture security video and images. You get the security you need, but without leaving lights on all night or having a visible spotlight turn on every time a rabbit or car goes by.

For this doorbell, they stick with visible-spectrum light and use a visible spotlight, which apparently is either always on or always off. So either you have to have a spotlight on your porch all night, or the camera won't capture any useful video. Presumably, the workaround would be a motion sensor triggering your porch lights to come on. The world does not need more always-on or often-on visible lights at night.

No mention of how this device gets its power. Presumably not from that Apple Watch charger that's inexplicably included in the photo.

All the headphones do is sit there and look pretty? No ability to charge them, perhaps wirelessly while they sit there?

At least with this AirPods Max stand, the headphones are wirelessly charged as they sit there and look pretty!

I’m glad I saw this before it gets deleted. It looks cool, but that slight lean to the left of the headphones would seriously kick my OCD into overdrive. Why can’t they be level?

I’ve heard this functionality referred to as a “holy grail” of tech bio monitoring — a little bizarre to think Apple and Samsung would achieve it in the very same year...
