Does it have 3rd position to open the door - as you did with key? That means positions locked, unlocked, and open - which does half more rotation to actually open the door if you have knob from outside?
Great and complete end to end detailed review of this smart lock. Answered all questions i had and i learned some things about smart locks. Enjoyed the demo too. like#59
I was searching info about smart locks and come across to this video, I must say wow wow wow, Great and complete end to end detailed review of this smart lock, none of the channel has such a detailed video, love it, subscribed your channel and recommended also.
A informative and comprehensive review as I've come to expect from yourself, thanks for sharing. The potential issues that I can forsee is that it looks to be a poor quality lock with zero break-in protection as there is no anti-snap protection visible, so a thief could break-in in just 6 seconds! It doesn't look BS kitemarked either. I would recommend that you contact your home insurance as it will likely become invalidated.
Indeed, that's what I thought too, it says on the box "copper", there is no antri-drill and / or anti-break protection, just soft metal, not even steel but copper. It's a pity as it's an affordable (maybe that's the reason?), easy to use and smart device! Pity you can not adapt it to one's own cilinder as you cand do with other brands, such as Nuki. I am sure it's totally fit for not high security doors, such as hotel rooms, offices in an office building and so on. But if it's your main entrance and the only lock, you will need at least a good, strong external protection shield. Very good and detailed review, thanks.
Hi! Thanks for the video, it got really good. TUYA products are best chosen by those who want to use them in a smart home because they integrate very well into complex systems. (I'm not thinking of the Tuya app) :)
Hello, I have the lock installed and I have any questions, I have linked it with smart life but I see that it only gives you the option to open, you cannot close it from outside the home, only if you use the airbnk app with Bluetooth. Is there any way to be able to close it outside the home? good video
You can set "Autoclose time" - so after open it will close after "n" seconds (+/- a delay of a few seconds). Since you can change this setting from remote you can close a door by first opening it and then have auto-close close it.
I just bought this too. It works great but my lock is too near the edge so I can't close my door. I wish there's a way around it. I got the fingerprint sensor as well which is surprisingly fast, no need for the app. My door is like yours too, glass with a narrow frame
How far from the middle does this lock come out by? Think I may have the same issue. Also what's the finger print sensor about, can you give me more details please Thanks
Hi, nice video thank you. I thought the lock cilinder for this model is changeable in length. The pivot that goes in the cilinder is variable like 40-100mm so it can sit flush to the shielding plate of the door handle.
Thank you for your video review. I was thinking to install it on my front door. But i do not know if it is IP65 or IP66. Compatibility with Google or Alexa would be great, but according to its price i think it is ok. What is your total experience?
the weakest part of all locks is the key, so having a key with a smart lock means you are achieving nothing as far as security is concerned, fingerprint locks should be fingerprint only, no key,
Depends on your security target - I was desperately searching for exactly this setup. I know I can recover from technical faults (sw) or loss of battery with a key. I would rather not want to be locked out of my flat (8th floor, no way to get secondary access path) having to call a locksmith that drills open my door/keyway. And the key locks decent from a lockpickers perspective (I'd give it a 4 or 5 out of 10) - better than most "landlord supplied" locks I have had in the past and if you have a house your windows and "other doors" will be a much easier target for most situations. Keep in mind a decent lock is ~150+ Euro, like the Assa Abloy Protect2. But if you loose the key or lock yourself out it will be much more expensive to get a locksmith to regain access.
this is probably the worst lock I've ever seen. The Bluetooth app is completely useless for automation. The original Tuya Zigbee gateway can only unlock the lock, but not lock it? This was programmed by a lunatic! The manufacturer provides no support. The thing has a huge battery consumption and no third party integration on Zigbee works. So it's not a zigbee, it's just a Tuya device. What good is a lock that can only be unlocked via an app?

Thanks for the comment, good to hear you enjoyed the video!
very beautiful upload nice share dear freind
Will it work with Conbee/deconz Zigbee?
I got the m531 version, battery life is about a month :( I'm trying to figure out, if I can put a 12v adapter on it.

Thank you for the support much appreciated!
is it not possible to integrate more smart features, like a sensor... by using zigbee hubs like homey, smarthings, or home assistant?
But that means if you open manually, the app will still show that door is locked, then i need to press 2 times to unlock then locked the door right?

Thanks for the comment, yes exactly insurance companies won't be happy with it, we need a major brand making products like this.

Very good and detailed review, thanks.
how it knows how many turns? usually they are 2 turn and half to open handle latch
The locker isn't strong enough to turn the lock all the way. Probably it is, but it stops too early.
Is there a work around?
Hi... I´d like to be sure that I understood... this device does not have LOCK remote option?
Hi, does tie has relays ? Or supports http commands? So I can open from external source. Is posible ?
what Zigbee hub are you using? I couldn't find it in the description. Thanks
My bad sorry, I've just added the details in now.
@@GeekStreet can i use my smart things v43 hub?
If it supports Zigbee then yes in theory.
You can yes
As usual very informative..thanks a lot
Thanks much appreciated !
Can you tell me how long the batteries last? Does it have a low battery warning?
My lock after 4 months is giving a very loud shrilling noise when it opens or closes and even hangs in between. What is the issue
So Tuya can be integrated with Google Home. Have you tried that to see if this device can be used with Google Home to lock and unlock the door?
Hi! Thanks for the video, it got really good. TUYA products are best chosen by those who want to use them in a smart home because they integrate very well into complex systems. (I'm not thinking of the Tuya app) :)
You have turned it for two times and the battery level dropped to 70% and then to 52%. Do you have to change batteries every day?
Lol, i know crazy
Bro, dose this lock have DOOR SENSE & AUTO UNLOCK(once you reach near door) function ??
No it doesn't have that.
can use face recognition smart lock, when stand infront of door and its unlock
How is the battery life, how often batteries needs replacement
It seems to drain batteries from the testing i was doing.

Set it to close by itself after so many minutes
You can set "Autoclose time" - so after open it will close after "n" seconds (+/- a delay of a few seconds). Since you can change this setting from remote you can close a door by first opening it and then have auto-close close it.
Very very very thank u!!!!

With a finger print sensor! Nice! I'll have to check that out
How far from the middle does this lock come out by? Think I may have the same issue.
Also what's the finger print sensor about, can you give me more details please
Thanks
Finger print reader he means.
Hi, just concern about battery life, how many months it gives ??
Hi, nice video thank you. I thought the lock cilinder for this model is changeable in length. The pivot that goes in the cilinder is variable like 40-100mm so it can sit flush to the shielding plate of the door handle.
That's M520/521 type, it is variable in length - shown here is Type 500/501 which is fixed 35mm/35mm.
How to disable manual hand open
Hi there. Does the lock comes with child lock so that our child wont accidentally open the door from inside to strangers outside?
Off hand i can't remember but I've shown all functionality in the video.
Does it support Alexa becoz smart life does support Alexa
its better not to handle oytside just a grab handle so when u unlock u just push the door in
how i can use it with alexa
What about security from hacking the wi-fi?
Excellent video, has put me off smart locks at the moment though, just not sure I trust them.
Thanks, it does the job, but its whether you have trust to put on your front door.
Thank you for your video review. I was thinking to install it on my front door. But i do not know if it is IP65 or IP66. Compatibility with Google or Alexa would be great, but according to its price i think it is ok. What is your total experience?
I wouldn't feel comfortable installing this on my front door.
@@GeekStreet Thank you
@@mixlimantz you're welcome, stick to a normal high security lock.
@@GeekStreet I was thinking about Nuki...😉
@@mixlimantz that seems like a good one.
What happen when battery die
You can use the key.
Where is the Remote Lock function??
Seems like no lock command, only autolock
Не понятно как работает от wifi

I'm glad I live in the US. It looks to me like our door locks are a lot more secure than yours.
I'm surprised really?
Lol US dead bolts are not as secured as mortise with euro profile cylinders. And US locks looks like they were design in the mid century
That's what I was thinking!
Oh absolutely more secure, but they probably have to be lol
🤔

@@Coyote973 Probably only Danalock
That’s not compatible with this door 👎👎👎
Yes i was disappointed too!
@@GeekStreet check M520/M521 type - it is designed for doors larger/thicker.
