Fri Sep 06 2024
Lockly, known for pushing the boundaries of smart lock technology, has unveiled its latest lineup: the Zeno Series. This quartet of locks boasts sleeker designs, advanced features, and compatibility with popular smart home ecosystems. But are these upgrades enough to justify the price tags? Let's dive in.
The Visage Zeno ($349) and Vision Zeno ($429) are the star players, packing a punch with features like fingerprint scanning, Apple Home Keys support, passcodes, and facial recognition.
