Xiaomi‘s ecological chain company Lumi technology which manufactures smart home products under the Aqara brand has launched a new product for the home. The product is dubbed Aqara D100 Smart Door Lock and is presently listed for sale on Xiaomi Youpin. It carries a price tag of 1899 yuan (~$288).

The Aqara D100 Smart Door Lock does not have a traditional horizontal door handle, which reduces the steps of pressing and pulling. It can be opened after fingerprint recognition with the thumb, making the process shorter.

According to the official description, the Aqara D100 smart door lock uses Apple and Xiaomi dual security chips, meaning it can be connected to Apple’s HomeKit and Mijia smart home IoT platforms. The fingerprint recognition uses the 3D semiconductor fingerprint recognition module of the Swedish PB company, with a financial-grade fingerprint detection algorithm.

In order to facilitate the needs of different users in the whole family, the D100 has seven different unlocking methods. One-time/periodical password unlocking can be used for on-site service with convenient maintenance personnel and nanny, NFC unlocking is suitable for the elderly and children with shallow fingerprints, and the NFC function supports compatible Xiaomi mobile phones/bands and Aqara NFC cards. In addition, the traditional lock cylinder of this door lock adopts a C-level cylinder, which has certain anti-technical unlocking capabilities.

Different from traditional motors, the Aqara D100 smart lock embeds the motor into the lock body, which greatly improves the response rate of the lock body. According to Greenmi Lab tests, the unlocking time of D100 can be as fast as 1 second.

According to the official description, this smart lock is equipped with a two-cell battery and lasts up to 12 months; there is a Type-C interface on the door that can be charged directly.
