Eufy Security Video Smart Lock is a 3-in-1 doorbell, security camera, and door lock (Crowdfunding)

Smart Home security may involve a door lock, a doorbell, and a security camera, but instead of providing three different devices, Eufy Security Video Smart Lock combines all three features into a single device that can be installed on your front door.

The device’s smart lock can be opened via a fingerprint scanner, an Android app, or voice commands through Alexa or Google Assistant, while you can watch the feed from the integrated 2K camera through the app whenever motion detection, combined with human detection, detects visitors.

3-in-1 smart video door lock

The auto-lock feature and/or a depleted battery could potentially lock you out of your home, but the company says a low-battery notification is issued when the battery is under 10% as a reminder, and when the battery dies, you can charge it via the ports under the lock to directly power up the lock in case of emergency, but obviously, the latter only work when you are inside. The Video Smart Lock also provides physical keys for manual input.

Another potential security hazard is the ability to use Google Assistant/Amazon Alexa voice commands since an intruder could potentially says “Hey Google, open the door” or “Alexa, open the door” to gain access to your home if he/she’s located close enough from the smart speaker.

We could not find any details about the internal design of the device. Just like the earlier (2018) Eufy Evercam security camera, Eufy Security Video Smart Lock has been launched through a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter that has raised close to $700,000 so far. The smart lock is offered for $229 plus shipping, and deliveries at expected to start in May 2022.
