In recent years, the penetration rate of smart door locks in China has been rising at an alarming rate. Many of my relatives and friends around me, whether they are changing their homes or simply changing their door locks, have chosen newer and more advanced smart door locks without exception. Recently, my house has also been replaced with a new smart door lock, which is the Huawei smart door lock Pro that everyone sees now. In this issue, we will share in detail the new experience brought by this door lock.
The installation process of a door lock is not complicated. I thought it would take a lot of time, but under the operation of a skilled installer, the whole process of removing the old door lock and installing the new door lock was completed in less than 20 minutes. In addition, the master also carefully explained to us the specific operations such as door lock pairing with mobile phone, password entry, etc., and the service was very thoughtful.
Before we experience it, let's take a look at what this door lock looks like. Whether it is an internal lock or an external door lock, Huawei Smart Door Lock Pro adopts an integrated symmetrical shape and a hollow handle design. The part of the lock outside the door, this star ring design is reminiscent of the design of Huawei's flagship mobile phone. The 3D depth camera and cat's eye camera are hidden inside. Anyway, after getting tired of seeing the door locks that commonly use push-down handles, this simple and integrated design does bring a bit of a unique sense of stability and order. The texture of workmanship is by no means comparable to ordinary smart door locks, I would like to call it a work of art in front of the door.
Unlike most fingerprint locks on the market, the main unlocking method of Huawei Smart Door Lock Pro is AI 3D face unlocking. While fingerprint unlocking is also convenient most of the time, prolonged use can cause the fingerprint to wear out, resulting in the problem of not being recognized. This problem is especially pronounced for the elderly and children. And Face Unlock effectively avoids this problem. Before using it, I was still worried about the unlocking angle. I always subconsciously bend down to unlock it, after all, I used to use my phone's face unlock to sometimes experience this. However, the unlocking angle of the Huawei smart door lock Pro is not a big problem. This is thanks to the built-in 3D depth camera of Huawei's flagship phone, as well as the clever design of the 16-degree elevation arrangement. As long as the height does not exceed 1 meter, 2 to 2 meters, it will automatically unlock and open the door after recognizing that it is standing in front of the door. And whether it's in the middle of the day in bright light or at night when the light is low, it unlocks almost as fast. This is due to the fact that Huawei Smart Door Lock Pro uses 3D TOF technology with a red external light source, and the ambient light conditions will not interfere with its recognition. And if you want to use a small dose of apples like **or**, it can't do it.
What I really like is not the advantages mentioned above, but the smooth experience when using Face Unlock. All of this is thanks to the AI dynamic Xi learning algorithm equipped with Huawei Smart Door Lock Pro, which enables the door lock to automatically record and learn Xi environment and face every time it is unlocked. In different makeup, hair and environments, this door lock can be accurately unlocked without the need to frequently collect face information. Imagine when you come home with a big bag, park your car, go upstairs to the door, and don't even have your hands free to open the door, the door lock is like a long-waiting family member, automatically opening the door for you. This is what I call an intelligent experience, Huawei Smart Door Lock Pro Even though it has reserved a variety of backup unlocking methods, including fingerprint unlocking, password unlocking, mobile phone unlocking, watch unlocking, and even the most traditional key unlocking, I still prefer the senseless experience brought by facial recognition.
In addition to automatically opening the door for you, when you are not at home, Huawei Smart Door Lock Pro can even help you "watch the door". This brings us to another surprising feature that I discovered during the experience - the distributed visual peephole. This 1080p cat's eye camera with a coverage angle of 150 degrees can capture everything outside the door, whether it is through the 397-inch high-definition color screen inside the door, or through a mobile phone or tablet. When a stranger stays abnormally, it will also activate the smart capture function. At this time, even if you are thousands of miles away, you can still receive the abnormal situation reminder in front of the door as soon as possible through the smart life app on your mobile phone and deal with it in time. If there is a guest to visit, and you happen to be not at home, then you can talk to the visitor in front of the door remotely on your mobile phone or tablet like **chatting, and provide a temporary password for the visitor to enter the house to rest.
It is worth mentioning that whether you choose this PRO version, Huawei smart door lock or Huawei smart door lock SE cat's eye version, you can enjoy the HAM US distributed visual peephole function, and control the security in front of the door at any time through the powerful distributed capabilities of HAM US.
Here, I would like to explain in detail the three products in Huawei's smart door lock series, their differences and purchase suggestions. First of all, Huawei smart door lock Pro and Huawei smart door lock are almost the same in terms of appearance design, but the main difference is that the Pro version has a unique face unlock function, and in terms of emergency power supply of the door lock, there is more function of reverse wireless charging with mobile phones and power banks.
Then, these three products all adopt a dual battery compartment design of 8800 mAh and 4 5 mAh batteries, and are equipped with TFC emergency charging function, so that the battery life is in the leading echelon among smart door lock products. The main unlocking method of the standard version and SE Maoyan version is AI fingerprint unlocking, which effectively improves the success rate of fingerprint unlocking through the AI learning Xi engine and deep super-resolution engine.
In addition, the S1 Cat Night Edition adopts the traditional push-down door handle design, and there is no auto-unlocking and auto-locking function. So, if you're looking for a high-tech unlocking experience and a distinctive look, Huawei Smart Door Lock Pro will be a subversive choice. If you're not interested in face recognition, but like this sense of quality, the standard version will be a good choice, **1,000 yuan lower than the Pro version. The S1 cat's eye version is more suitable for users who pay attention to practical functions and product cost-effectiveness.
If you are an ecological user of Huawei, buying a Huawei smart door lock will be a better choice. In addition to the linkage with mobile phones, tablets and other devices, Huawei smart door locks can also better cooperate with products in the HarmonyOS ecosystem to achieve various custom smart scenarios. Having more HarmonyOS items can lead to a richer experience.
That's all for this issue. Hopefully, this information will help you make an informed choice when purchasing products from Huawei's smart door lock series.
