I wouldn't recommend this specific iteration of this smart lock as it is strictly bluetooth and they will be releasing a wifi enabled lock in the future.
These biometric sensors don't really work the way you think they do. They don't take an image of your entire fingerprint. They will do small portion just enough to have a unique random string of characters. They make you record it multiple times to prevent false positives and have more data depending on the orientation when you press your finger.

In theory someone can still have your exact same finger print data even though everyone's fingerprint is different. Because it doesn't record your entire fingerprint. Also each sensor will record data differently because of tolerances within the equipment. That's why biometric data is usually stored locally.

Plus by that logic if you've gotten a passport or an ID then what's stop the government to send it to other foreign governments?

Repped. thanks for the technical detail on the sensor. I guess security is the reason why biometric door lock is not popular even though it seems so convenient.

That's outdated, I think they're up to Comet Lake now.

Just like the anti-Tiktok hysteria. When the EFF comes out and says an app doesn't pose a privacy risk to the general user, then you know the concerns are mostly B.S. Sure, if you are pro-demcracy HK lawyer or a protester, you shouldn't be using an app the government can look into. However, the Chinese government can't gain much from having backend access to a 20 second funny video...

Have you ever considered that US intelligence just might have more inside info on this matter than some volunteer-run nerd club?

Theoretically someone else can have the same key as you since there are a limited number of key patterns out there. If someone wants to break in they'll just grab the nearest rock/brick, they are not gonna hack into your smart lock to break in.

I was looking into this look and I read that there is a Wi-Fi module inside but it is not activated yet.

Wouldn't a wifi enabled lock use a lot more power?
