Nice work, design team. The gingerbread graphics are fun.

I think these might be AI generated. I hope I'm wrong.

Is MacRumors going to disclose that those artworks are AI generated?

Any thoughts on the Aqara doorbell camera? I think it might be an odd product where out of the box needed a subscription with Aqara for the video? Later got Homekit support, but not clear whether you don't need the Aqara subscription and can instead use iCloud. Maybe I just use an Aqara E2 with my existing doorbell, and a camera pointing outside. Or... maybe there's a better Homekit doorbell out there?

I have one and it just works out of the box with iCloud. I don’t use the app at all, only for installation. Everything else goes via the Home app. It’s a nice doorbell and the HomeKit support is quite nice.

I wished there was better options for the HomeKit Outdoor Security Cameras. I don't think there are any that pan and tilt.

Would be nice to have more with flood lights on them, or at least some HomeKit flood lights without cameras, but the options are very limited.

Currently have two Eve Floodlight Cams, and they are okay as a cameras, just not a good floodlight.

Decent discounts on many products. Philips Hue lights are nice
