1. A bit loud when it's locking / unlocking. But it's not *that* loud (not enough to bother anyone) and also how often are you unlocking / locking the door???
2. There is like a 3-5 second lag between placing your finger onto the sensor and the door recognizing it / opening the door. It's slow enough to make you wait, but given it's wireless I guess that's the price you have to pay.
3. No HomeKit which was a big deal until I forgot about it.
I did way too much research months back when I was looking for a lock, for the price (I got it for $112.40 with tax for the lock itself) it's basically the only option if you want a fingerprint sensor, allowing you to keep the OG key, and not having to mount a massive obvious device on the outside of the door.
It'll crap out eventually.
Ask me how I know....

I installed this lock (without the keypad) at my daughter's apartment 3 weeks ago. She and her roommates say it works well and no issues. I suggested that they leave a key in their car or backpack just in case. And yes, it is a loud lock.

Love that thing, and not a single glitch in 5 years.
I just replaced the four AA batteries every 8 to 12 months or so.
