cnet.co/1fdBCnC A proximity-based camera, accelerometer, and connected phone app turns this lock into a remote detection system...and it allows customized keyless entry, too.
it seems like a scam. They were originally suppose to deliver in late 2013 but to date none of the backers have received the locks. They are now saying November 2014 but based on their history, seems highly unlikely. It seems the creators of Goji have used all the time and pre-order money in travelling to different cities and doing product marketing and reviews rather than creating a final product and delivering it to the people who paid for it. Hell, they don't even bother updating the buyers!
I don't understand why these people are over-complicating something that is meant to be simple. Most of these electronic locks will not survive the harsh cold winters.
This type of almost new tech begs a lot more time to bake in the old tech oven. For those whose doors face constant inclement weather, how weatherproof is this device? I'm certain after a few more iterations all of this device's inherent flaws will either cause this tech to sink or swim. Personally, I hope tilt soar to unimaginable heights.
They should make a setting in this app so when you have your phone it knows you are near the lock and will unlock it and when you walk away it will lock it so you never need to touch it.
Holdon a sec gotta get my phone, and wait 5 minutes for touch id to accept my fingerprint, than wait for the app to take 2 hours to load, then wait for the bluetooth to unlock it. Or you could just put the fuckin key in
Thief's will want to steal your door lock instead of what's in the house lol
lol
Theif's...what?

Havoc Bah Goji went out of business.
Havoc Bah
You're right... I paid the full amount...
& at the End they told me sorry
We are bankrupt & your money is lost 😔🤔🙄
Buy the Samsung ones you know they will work and can get them from Lowes or Home Depo or Amazon
and how do you prevent someone to just rip off the fancy looking gadget from your door?

Depends on the lock. The August goes inside the house.

What happens when battery's run out?
I wonder how long the battery will last. Wifi could be the biggest drain depending on how often it would be used.

What happens if u say "NEVER LET THE KEY BE USED" and the batteries run out when u r outside?

Cool concept but I prefer the tried and true lock and key! No one can "hack" my key to gain entry into my house.
Cool, now people can hack into your home!
As if that's easier than replicating a standard key?
tksemipro
Lol, I was being a bit sarcastic. Hard to determine mood through text I suppose, though. :D
i wonder what aiden pierce would think of this lock haha
what happens when the battery dies and your out of the house ?? will you be able to use your key?
This is still a "scary" piece of tech. I worry that someone could easily hack it. Also, what happens if you go on vacation and, the battery dies?
DanielFriedman You use your key. BTW Goji went out of business.
USING A KEY IS TOO HARD RIGHT GUYS? WHAT'S NEXT PINCH TO ZOOM WITH YOUR EYES TO UNLOCK A FREAKING DOOR. AMERICA IS JUST GETTING TOO LAZY.
Dral B America is NOT lazy.
What if the batteries die? :P
I agree it seems lazy and tbh more effort to not use the key but the monitoring is a good feature!
Aidan Štokas IKR
Because using a key is just too hard.
Now they delayed shipping until April 2015 - SCAM!!!!!
TallisandTucker Goji went out of business.
You can buy now the samsung ezon and is much better
What if you loose or have your keys and mob stolen? A key pad maybe a better option.
Mitchseen Yeah a keypad would be a better option.
I really don't trust tech to keep my house lock.
Looks like a huge iPhone 5s fingerprint sensor.
Lockitron is much better and is less expensive and more ideal for renters.
dra250 IKR
i guess its used as a last resort, for the most time this is much more efficient
I think then it will send you an alert on your phone before it runs out and you will then have to use the actual key until you replace the batteries
Nate Riggs I think so too that you will get a low battery alert if your battery is low.
Oh my god we are domed!! Some dogs whatching it will hack it!!
O,it's gonna be easier to break in someone house
Heisenberg is the one who knocks
who holds the patent on this design?
That's why the smart come with a set of keys too
Until Someone hacks it
Wonder if the key lock will be "bump" proof?
Bruce Murray Probably not. Because if some burglar found out how to get to the key, they could bump it.
i thought the point is to not have a key hahah then whats the point if ur carrying a key on u still
don't fall for this scam! i bought the lock 2 years ago and never received it
Tom Yeh Goji went out of business.
*1 second, *2 seconds, *2 seconds....
i am the one who knocks
I like it .. really good tech
Just get a pass code lock.
it looks slow though...it seems more of a show off product
NSA made this
use a key?
first
So Cool! :)
no need for language hahah....ps then whats the point if ur going to have to carry a key in case the battery's run out?
how about finger print.
NoChillChicken Fingerprint scanners are good ideas.
Cool
itsaturkishword1 I don't like this lock
Niiiiice!
htakahashi I don't like this lock
was nothing but a scam :(
matthew rocha Goji went out of business.
Lol
