Save $110 and call your friends and family with Portal by Facebook
Celebrate summer and save a huge chunk of change on Facebook’s 1st generation Portal. It’s a smart video display, and it’s on sale for $110 off when you use the code PORTALSUMMER after you add it to your cart. That brings the total down to just $89 from a normal price of $200. This is one of the best prices we’ve ever seen on this version of the Portal, and it’s definitely the best price we’ve seen outside of big sales events like Black Friday.
The key to it all is the smart camera, which uses an advanced AI to track your movements and keep everyone in the frame. It can pan and zoom automatically even as you shuffle aroound the room. You can take 12MP photos and it has a 140-degree field of view.
The Portal can seamlessly connect with Facebook Messenger and WhatsApp to make video calls to anyone and everyone. The video calls are clear, and the audio is precise. There is even Amazon Alexa built in so you can control the rest of your smart home from the Portal as well. Use it to view your security cameras or video doorbells. Turn off the lights, stream your favorite music, and more.
if you’re worried about privacy, there is an easy switch to disable both the mic and the camera. It even has a separate physical cover you can put over the camera when it’s not in use.
