What reviewers say
Distilled from the video reviewers — the score, what they praise, where they push back.?
Reviewers praise
- Built-in Wi-Fi means no hub required — remote access and notifications work without additional hardware
- Fingerprint reader supports up to 100 prints across 50 users and reviewers found it responsive
- Supports up to 250 access codes with time- and date-restricted scheduling for guests or recurring visitors
Reviewers push back
- Struggles on 1-3/8-inch doors — one locksmith reviewer could not install it without fabricating custom spacers
- All programming requires the companion app; nothing meaningful can be configured at the lock itself
- Requires a dedicated 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi band and does not reliably detect hybrid dual-band routers
A capable Wi-Fi smart lock with genuine fingerprint convenience and solid build, held back by narrow door compatibility and a mandatory-app setup that frustrates some installers.
Installation difficulty divides reviewers: the consumer channels called it straightforward and under 45 minutes, while the professional locksmith found it problematic on a correctly-spec'd display board
