Not letting Level have all of the fun, Aqara is stepping in to discount its competing smart lock with Apple Home Key support. Courtesy of its official Amazon storefront, the new Aqara HomeKit Smart Lock U100 sells for $173.99 shipped after the on-page coupon has been clipped. Down from $190, this is only the third discount to date and a rare chance to save on the recent release. Earlier this summer, we dove into what you can expect from the new smart lock and walked away impressed in our hands-on review. As for how the new release stacks up, Apple HomeKit support really is the star of the show. But it won’t just work with Siri and the rest of your iPhone-friendly accessories, but also with Home Key tech that allows you to unlock just by tapping your phone to the lock with NFC. Otherwise, you’re looking at a sleek front door upgrade with the Aqara Smart Lock U100 that sports a built-in touchscreen and fingerprint sensor for some other ways to unlock without your keys. Head below for more.
