VISION PRO

SwitchBot Lock Vision stores face scans locally with no cloud required

The Short Version

SwitchBot's Lock Vision smart locks use 3D facial recognition with 20,000 infrared points, work with Apple Home via Matter over Wi-Fi without a hub, and start at $169.99.

SwitchBot's Lock Vision stores your face scan on the lock itself, not on a company's server somewhere. The Pro version reads palm veins, even wet ones, without any touch required. A 10,000mAh main battery handles daily use, and a backup CR123A cell covers 500 more unlocks if that dies. Smart lock makers have spent years asking you to trust their cloud. This one just doesn't use it.
