It brings native Apple Home Key support to a door for right around $100.

Best time to buy an iPhone in 2026: When prices drop & which model to buy
Macworld If you’re planning to buy a new iPhone, timing your purchase can save you hundreds of pounds or dollars. There are certain times of the year when buying a new iPhone is a bad idea, and others when you can pick up a bargain. While Apple rarely discounts its latest models, prices often fall after new iPhones launch in September, during major sales events such as Black Friday, and through retailer and carrier promotions throughout the year. Whether you’re looking for the latest iPhone or hoping to get the best value on an older model, understanding Apple’s release cycle – and when retailers typically cut prices – can help you decide whether to buy now or wait. In this guide, we’ll explain the best times to buy an iPhone in 2026, when you should hold off on upgrading, and how to get the biggest savings. We’ll also answer common questions, including when Apple is likely to reduce the price of older iPhone models and whether it’s worth waiting for the next generation.

The worst time to buy an iPhone This is generally in the weeks leading up to Apple’s September launch event, or in the early spring, when new models are expected to be announced. Buying just before a refresh means you could miss out on new features or pay full price for a model that’s about to be superseded. The best time to buy an iPhone This depends on where you live: In the U.K., where most iPhones are sold unlocked and off contract, the biggest savings are typically available during major sales events such as Amazon Prime Day (usually in July and October, and occasionally in March) and Black Friday in late November. However, worthwhile iPhone discounts can be found throughout the year if you know where to look. In the U.S., where people tend to buy iPhones through a carrier, the best time to upgrade is often during Black Friday when networks enhance their offers with larger trade-in values, bill credits, gift cards, or discounted service plans.

Smart Home Diary: Sometimes the smart thing is to live with dumb switches
I think if we are honest with ourselves, most of us would admit that smart home tech falls into one of two categories. First, there is the genuinely useful. Second, there’s the stuff we do just because we can, and it is to some degree cool. I think I’ve now discovered a third category: things that really aren’t worth all of the time and effort they take …
