UGREEN recently announced its local AI NAS alongside its first smart home series. However, it states, “This wouldn’t have been possible” without consumers’ support, so UGREEN is saying thanks.
This morning (Sept. 30), UGREEN detailed a series of price drops for its upcoming local AI NAS products. The company’s statement reads, “To make HomeAgent accessible to more households and show our appreciation for the trust of our early supporters, we have decided to lower the manufacturer’s suggested retail price…” Previously, UGREEN listed its HomeAgent HA100 at $1,799. That’s now been reduced by $200 to $1,599.
Elsewhere, the company says it’s reducing the MSRP of its HomeAgent HA100 Pro by $600, going from $5,999 to $5,399.

UGREEN also listed its Super Early Bird and Early Bird discounts in this announcement. The percentage off remains unchanged; however, since the MSRP is different, the final price has decreased. You can view the updated prices below:
- 50% Super Early Bird price (HomeAgent HA100): $899 to $799; 40% Early Bird price: $1,079 to $959
- 50% Super Early Bird price (HomeAgent HA100 Pro): $2,999 to $2,699; 40% Early Bird price: $3,599 to $3,239
If you’ve been gearing up for UGREEN’s Kickstarter launch and you’ve already made your deposit, there’s more in store. The company says consumers who’ve made a deposit for the HomeAgent HA100 and HA100 Pro are eligible for one ID500 Pro camera gift.
On the other hand, UGREEN says there are several other products not receiving a price drop, such as the MasterAgent MA100. However, you won’t miss out on gifts. If you’ve already put a deposit down for the MA100, you are eligible to receive four) 8TB Digital hard drives.

UGREEN states it’s also pushed back its Kickstarter launch date for its HomeAgents. Launch has moved from October 27 to November 17.
We were able to get our hands on the HomeAgent HA100, and we were pretty impressed. Android Central’s Nicholas Sutrich has 15 years of professional IT experience, and UGREEN’s HA100 was as “self-explanatory and user-friendly as you can imagine.” Sutrich didn’t read the instructions to see if he could figure everything out on his own. In short, he got the HA100 going in about five minutes.
At one point in our hands-on, Sutrich said, “To say I’m extremely excited about these products is an understatement. From the looks of things so far, this does everything I’ve wanted a smart home to do and then some. Local control and storage are particularly attractive to me, especially since I stopped using Eufy years ago after all those old scandals.”
