After three weeks of daily use, I’m convinced this lock is a winner. The fingerprint scanner is *scary fast*—0.42 seconds feels like magic when you’re juggling groceries. No more fumbling for keys in the rain!

The hidden keypad is slick (literally—it lights up with just a touch), though I wish the digits were always visible like in the product photos. Cold fingers? No problem. The Schlage-compatible physical key backup saved me when my hands were full of pizza boxes.

Battery life is insane—still at 100% after heavy use. The USB-C charging is a thoughtful touch, though I’m side-eyeing that proprietary battery pack. Pro tip: Disable the doorbell in-app unless you enjoy phantom notifications every time someone brushes against it.

Installation was easier than assembling IKEA furniture, and those rubber gaskets? Genius move for door protection. Just hope Tapo fixes the widget sync issue—I shouldn’t need to open the app to see if it’s locked.

For Alexa users: Voice unlock requires shouting your PIN like a bank password. Not ideal, but understandable for security. Overall? Worth every penny for the peace of mind alone.
