I recently installed the SwitchBot Lock, Hub 2, and Keypad Touch combo, and I couldn't be happier with my purchase. The installation process was a breeze, and it included everything I needed. So far, everything is working flawlessly.
One of the standout features for me is the convenience of the SwitchBot Tags. I can effortlessly unlock the door from both inside and outside by simply tapping the designated tags with my phone. What's truly impressive is that I didn't have to make any holes to attach it to the door or wall, which my HOA restrictions prevent me from doing. In fact, this is the only compatible smart lock I could find for my existing high-security lock. It's a game-changer! It can also automatically lock the door for me when it closes and alert me when it’s left open.
I haven't had a chance to try the keypad yet, but based on my experience so far, I have high expectations. Overall, the SwitchBot Lock combo has brought ease and security to my daily life, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a smart lock solution that seamlessly integrates with their high-security setup.
Overall, I really like these products. The Hub 2 looks nice and is easy to read (love the display!), but I don't have much use for it outside of just being a hub for other devices do to it's limited features. The standard features lock work great and is a game changer for not needing to carry a key.
Only suggestions I would make are around enhanced functionality:
1. The lock lacks the ability to lock/unlock based on you being within a geographical range from the house. It also lacks the ability to lock X time after you CLOSE the door. Right now it's just on a timer from being unlocked, so it locks even when the door is still open. August Home smart locks have great lock controls that I hope you all adopt soon.
2. Hub 2 - needs more AC control abilities (set comfy range to tell the AC when to turn on/off instead of one static temperature, set schedules, away mode, etc). Cielo Breez Max has great features that I would prefer my switchbot device have in order for me to purchase more and use as my preferred product.
