Xiaomi has launched a new smart door lock which is already listed for pre-order on Jingdong (JD.com) with a decent 1299 yuan (~$203) price tag. The Xiaomi Smart Door Lock 1S, as it is called, is an upgraded version of the first-gen Xiaomi Smart Door Lock which is a well-received product.
Unlike the first-gen Xiaomi Smart Door Lock, the new Xiaomi Smart Door Lock 1S comes with support for both the MIJIA app and Apple Home Kit. The device also comes with 3D semiconductor fingerprint identification which allows the use of biometrics to open the door more accurately. The device also comes with a financial-grade Swedish PB fingerprint detection algorithm that effectively rejects fake fingerprints and gives users greater security.
There is also support for NFC unlock with the NFC sensing area, and keypad area integrated into one. With NFC, devices such as Mi Band 6 NFC version, Xiaomi Mi 11 series, Redmi K40 series, Xiaomi watches and other NFC devices can be used to easily unlock the device.
In terms of the mechanical build, the Mi Smart Door Lock 1S has the main control chip placed in the rear panel which prevents anti-riot demolition and electromagnetic interference.
