Over 3.5 years and still going strong

Reviewed in the United States on December 11, 2025

Color: BlackVerified Purchase

I bought this when I moved in to my new condo over 3.5 years ago and have had nothing but good luck with this unit. Everything works every time except when I try opening or closing from the app. However I'm not sure it's the locks fault as my door isn't exactly new. The wifi connection However is strong and i never have an issue connecting. The battery life is about 9 months to a year, obviously depending on the amount of use. I recently gave my gf access and it has reduced the battery life somewhat. I also am using higher quality batteries with this unit to help with this. The quality seems to be there, since it's been almost 4 years now. The installation isn't bad. Anyone with the correct tools could do it as long as you're following directions and paying attention lol. Pretty much like anything else. It looks as nice as it works. I would absolutely recommend this product. I paid quite a bit more when I bought it than it it now. I really like this product and would absolutely recommend it. I'm buying one for a friend as a housewarming gift. Think its perfect.

Good features, but auto lock and interior aesthetics could be better

Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2025

Color: Oil Rubbed BronzeVerified Purchase

Installing the lock physically was very easy. It requires an app to set it up. After several failures with nondescript error messages, I tried another device and it worked on that one. With this, it took many times longer to configure it that it did to install it. Fortunately, once the app is up and running, installing a 2nd lock goes very quickly.

Some minor cutting to accomodate the new plates was needed. This was done using a utility knife. The plastic box-like object they provide wasn't useful though. The deadbolt recess was oval in shape. It would have been a lot of work to have to chisel all that out just to get the rectangular plastic box in there. That was left out.

The main drawback for me is the auto-lock. It is based solely on timing and doesn't care if the door is open or closed. Another lock I have is smarter. It has a hall-effect sensor and locks when the door is closed. Much nicer. I would much prefer this type of locking, but was unable to find a unit that met my requirements. I chose this one as something of a tradeoff.

The other problem is aesthetics. What works on the outside, aesthetically, doesn't work so well inside. The inside is a large dark brick like object whose color doesn't match the typical interior decor. It would be better if they had a few covers of different colors to use for the indoor part. I covered the battery cover to lighten the color. The outside unit, though, looks great. One of the reasons I bought it. But there are two very different sides to a door. I am not done yet. I will try to find a way to make it look nicer on the inside.

The app is for the most part well written (except for the lack of proper error messages), but the copy function from lock to lock isn't very useful. It doesn't bring your attention to its limitation which is that it only copies the card info. Nor does it say what it did. It just says copied 2 records. Not very informative. It does not copy the fingerprints. Getting the fingerprints is a lot more work. Being able to copy those would be a bigger benefit than the cards which are easy to add.

Overall, though, the unit is quite acceptable. The main thing likely to sink it is if the auto-lock turns out to be a nuisance. Auto-lock is a must have for me. A good auto-lock with sensor would be preferred. Time will tell.

Great Value Smart Door Lock

Reviewed in the United States on April 7, 2023

Color: BlackVerified Purchase

We swapped out our 1st gen August lock with this SMONET lock and matching handle (B09V571VMK). The combination looks great. The quality of the hardware is mid-range at best, but wanted to try a value lock first before upgrading to a name brand like Kwikset or Yale down the road. For $120 (after coupon), the SMONET lock works as advertised and quickly setup the pin code and fingerprints for the whole family, which all work well. We've only had it for a few days, so can't speak to its longevity, but the install was relatively simple and the app is straight forward and easy to use. The most difficult part was aligning the lock plate, which required some chiseling of the door frame, but would need to be done for any new lock.
In general, It just works, which is what we wanted, not an overly complex lock/app that tries to upsell the customer on accessories or subscriptions (which has regrettably become the norm these days). My favorite feature is the auto-lock settings, which can be set from 10-60 seconds after the door is unlocked. We never need to worry about an unlocked front door again as long as it's closed.
We also bought the gateway (B0811J4PL8) in order to unlock the door when not home and to control the lock from Google Home & Alexa. If you decide to do the same, it needs to be linked to the "ScienerSmart" app/service for Google Home and the "TTLock" app/service for Alexa. It's a bit confusing to have different names for everything (SMONET for the hardware, "Next Lock" for the Android/IOS app, "TTLock" for Alexa and "ScienerSmart" for Google Home. Once you figure this out, then can control the lock across all your smart devices. Google Home actually works better than Alexa and can unlock the door (with a code) from my google next. Alexa linked to the lock fine, but currently can't unlock the door as it says that I need to enable locking in the App, which I've done, but still doesn't work; I'll troubleshoot this more, but no luck on the first attempt.
To address some of the other critical reviews, this lock and company is likely based in Southern China and wouldn't expect to have a perfect owners manual or packaging; I don't think it was copy-edited by a native English speaker. That said, these types of locks are a dime a dozen in East Asia and trust that they're working off of proven technology that just needed adaptation for the North American Market. Some feedback for the SMONET folks…..If you want to up your game and improve review scores, I'd recommend hiring out a professional copy-edit company in Hong Kong, Singapore, USA and spend a bit more on the packaging to have thicker cardboard and replace the foam insulators with ECO/Cardboard options (take inspiration from Xioami or Anker). I'm sure these marginal improvements would allow you to better compete with the larger brands on the platform.

Easy to Use & Wonderful Customer Service!

Color: BlackVerified Purchase

We purchased this lock around 7 months ago & had no issues with it. Install is simple and straightforward. The lock is easy to use & reliable. The features of fingerprint, touch screen, app compatibility, & ic FOBS make it all the better. It has performed through -40°C and +40°C temperatures with grace.

Unfortunately I noticed that the lock wasn’t retracting fully and I contacted customer service. They put me in touch with Winter, who went above and beyond to help us out. She diagnosed the problem and sent us a new lock within a couple of days. Her service was prompt & professional. Thank you Winter!

Excellent value at the price point and a great customer service

I have this lock installed in my front entrance security door. My wife and I use the fingerprint feature for entry. Also with a "bluetooth bridge" ($40) which connects the lock to our wifi, I can use Google assistance for remote functions such as checking to see if the door is locked and if not, then google can remotely lock it for me
We also love the temporary passcode feature for those unexpected visits when we are not home and the ability to assign several passcodes is invaluable when you have contractors or cleaners going in and out because apart from the convenience, you also get a log of who enters and exits your home and when.
All and all a great smart lock, BIG on features at a very reasonable cost.
The only thing I wish it had is a direct WIFI capability without the need for a "bridge" and when Simonet comes up with a WIFI model, I'll be sure to order one.
Remember that for the best functionality you will also need a WIFI door sensor (about $20). This way google assistant can tell if the door is open or closed and the lock can be set to automatically lock, as soon as the door is closed so you will never have to remember to lock the door.
Customer service is also great. In fact when my first lock developed an issue after 4 months, I simply contacted Simonet for support and they sent me a brand new lock under warranty.
I could not ask for more and definitely recommend this smart looking smart lock.

Don't waste your money on this lock

Reviewed in Canada on November 30, 2024

Color: BlackVerified Purchase

I was very excited for this smart lock, but I absolutely would NOT buy again.
It was bought 11 months ago and worked fine for first few months, aside from finger print unlock which was hit or miss.
A few months ago it began malfunctioning – door says it has locked after locking with keypad, on app timer, and with app, but dead bolt hasn't moved or tried to lock. Tried changing batteries to see if that made a difference, but continues to not lock consistently.
Also it has on numerous occasions stopped working altogether and just makes an alarm sound despite having full batteries.
Don't waste your money on this product.

Excellent Smart Lock

Color: BlackVerified Purchase

Before buying a smart lock, I researched a lot and finally found this lock.

First, we can lock and unlock however way we like to:
1. Using a traditional physical key;
2. Scanning fingerprint;
3. Using the app;
4. Punching pass key on keypad;
5. Even comes with two IC card, that can be conveniently attached a keychain.

Secondly, we like the autolock function. After our desired time we set on the app, it locks automatically. We can never forget to lock as it locks by itself. It is very convenient and secure.

Third, the design of lock is slim and compact that suits on all doors, and we can choose a couple of different colour options to begin with. I chose a black one and we like it.

Fourthly, we can set many useful settings using two different apps. We can lock and unlock. We can set pass key and many other settings. It is very user-friendly and convenient.

Finally, it works well under all circumstances – hot and cold. It works perfectly even in extreme cold weather in Canada.

I strongly recommend it to anyone looking for a good smart lock for your home.
