00:00Okay, so here's a question I never thought I'd care about until I locked myself out of my own
00:04house at 11 at night in the rain, how much is a key actually worth to you? Because I spent
00:09the
00:09last couple of weeks digging through smart door locks, the kind that open with your fingerprint
00:13or your phone, and I found 5 that are genuinely worth your money. Not gimmicks, not the ones that
00:19die after 3 months. These are the best deals I could find right now, so let's get into it.
00:25First up is the big one, a smart fingerprint door lock with app remote control, Wi-Fi,
00:30a digital touchscreen, NFC, and an IP67 waterproof rating. That waterproofing is the part one want
00:37you to hear, because a lot of these locks fall apart the second real weather hits them.
00:42This one is built for a front door that takes rain, snow, whatever. You get remote control from
00:48anywhere, plus 2 IC cards in the box. It's $445.65, which is not cheap, I know, but almost 4
00:56,900
00:57people have bought it with a 4.6 rating, and for a main entry door you actually rely on, that's
01:02the
01:02kind of peace of mind that's hard to put a price on. Now, complete opposite end of the spectrum,
01:08the Velatipod smart lock. Fingerprint, passcode, app control, and here's my favorite detail,
01:14type C emergency power. So if the battery ever dies on you, you just plug in a phone charger and
01:20you're back in. No panic, no locksmith. This is an indoor door lock, so think bedroom, office,
01:27home studio, that kind of thing. And the price? $22.58. That is genuinely absurd for what it does.
01:37Nearly 4,900 sold, 4.6 stars, if you just want to try smart locks without committing, start here.
01:45Third is the smart door lock handle, and this is the one with the highest rating of the whole list
01:50of 4.9. That number does not happen by accident. It's a full handle replacement with fingerprint,
01:57keycard, keypad entry, physical key backup, and mobile app control, so basically every weigh-in
02:02you could possibly want. Over 4,300 sold. It's $286.13, which puts it right in that sweet middle
02:12zone you're getting a proper, solid, good-looking handle set, not a plastic add-on stuck to your
02:16existing door. If you want one lock that just quietly does everything right, this is my pick.
02:23Number 4, the Recube M5, this is the Tuya 1. If you already have smart home stuff running through
02:29the Smart Life or Tuya app, this drops straight into your existing setup, no new app cluttering
02:34up your phone. Bluetooth connection, and you can open it with fingerprint, password, physical key,
02:40IC card, or the app. 5 ways in. It's $250.62, over 3,800 sold, 4.7 stars. Honestly, for
02:52people who like
02:53their whole house talking to each other from one screen, this is the easy answer. And rounding it out,
02:58the V1 Pro Plus, and this one's a little different, because it's a cylinder lock.
03:03Meaning you're swapping out just the cylinder inside your existing door, not the whole handle.
03:09It's adjustable to fit different door thicknesses, works with either Tuya or TTLock,
03:13and handles fingerprint, password, and RFID cards. That TTLock support is why this thing is huge with
03:20landlords and short-term rental hosts, you can send someone a temporary code that expires on its own.
03:26It's $460.92, the priciest here, but with a 4.8 rating and 3,600 sold, it's clearly earning it.
03:34All 5 of those are linked down in the description, and the prices do move around, so it's worth
03:39checking before you decide. If this helped you narrow things down, do me a favor and hit that

03:49Thanks for watching, I'll catch you in the next one.
