Score: 88/100
Philips Smart Lock with Handle
Score: 78/100Rankings
The eufy C220 is a premium hub-free smart lock featuring Matter support, IP53 waterproofing, and USB-C emergency power. Its main trade-off is the reliance on disposable AA batteries and non-rekeyable physical keys. It is best suited for users in extreme weather environments or those prioritizing maximum security certifications.
The Philips WiFi Keypad Door Lock is a smart deadbolt featuring built-in 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi without requiring a hub, offering multiple unlock methods including fingerprint, PIN, and voice control. It supports up to 100 user PIN codes and 20 fingerprints, with auto-lock capabilities and remote app management for enhanced home security. While it offers fast biometric access and easy installation, users should be aware of the limited fingerprint capacity and potential battery drain from Wi-Fi usage.

“triumph of form and function”
“arguably the best lock in its class”
Professional reviewers praise the Philips WiFi Keypad Door Lock for its seamless remote control via hub-free Wi-Fi, fast fingerprint recognition, and easy DIY installation. Editors highlight the convenience of voice integration and flexible PIN management, though they note that the reliance on batteries and the Grade 3 security rating are limitations for advanced users requiring higher security standards.
Everyday consumers appreciate the effortless app and voice control, quick fingerprint entry, and the auto-lock feature that prevents forgetting to lock the door. Users find the guest PIN functionality particularly useful for rentals and families. However, recurring complaints focus on battery life draining faster due to Wi-Fi usage and occasional connectivity glitches when not on 2.4 GHz networks.
