![A Facial Recognition Lock for Half the Price?
SwitchBot Lock Ultra Review â Is It Finally Good? (Facial Recognition Keypad Test)
Last time I tested a SwitchBot lock, it won the prestigious Ugliest Lock award in my 16-lock showdown⌠by a landslide. So when they sent me their brand new SwitchBot Lock Ultra with the Vision Keypad (yes, facial recognition!), I wasnât expecting much.
But this one? Kinda surprised me.
In this video, I install and test the new SwitchBot Lock Ultra and Keypad Vision to see how it stacks up against my all-time favorite smart lockâthe Lockly Visage. From facial recognition accuracy, design improvements, and smart home compatibility to installation tips and low-light performance, I cover everything you need to know.
đ Is it perfect? No.
đŽ Is it way better than the last one? Definitely.
đ¸ Is it worth it at half the price of the Lockly? Watch and decide.
đ§ What Youâll Learn:
How the Lock Ultra compares to the Lockly Visage
Whether facial recognition actually works
Why this might be the best retrofit smart lock right now
What you need (and donât need) from SwitchBotâs hubs
Honest pros and cons (with jokes included, obviously)
