The Aqara Smart Lock U200 Lite is a modern, keyless smart lock that can be retrofitted onto existing door locks, making it an ideal choice for both renters and homeowners. Thanks to Matter over Thread support, it integrates seamlessly into most smart home systems such as Apple Home, Google Home, Amazon Alexa, and Samsung SmartThings.
The lock offers multiple unlocking methods, including NFC stickers, Bluetooth connection, and voice control, providing users with flexible access options.
The built-in gyroscope enables automatic locking after the door is closed, enhancing home security. The silent mode is particularly useful for nighttime use as it minimizes operational noise. The 2000 mAh rechargeable lithium-ion battery offers up to 6 months of runtime on a single charge and alerts users when the battery is low, preventing unexpected power loss.
The U200 Lite can be easily installed on existing locks that have an emergency function, eliminating the need for complex installation or door modifications. This is especially beneficial for rented properties where significant alterations are not desired.
