Aqara discounts for Amazon Prime Big Deal Days

Upgrade your home security with Aqara’s HomeKit-compatible Smart Lock U100, U300, or Video Doorbell G4, which are discounted as much as 30% for Amazon Prime Big Deal Days. Whether you’re new to Apple Home or have a dozen HomeKit-enabled smart devices, it’s never too late to add new features like door locks with Home Key or a camera with HomeKit Secure Video. Aqara has some of its best smart home options at a steep discount for Amazon Prime Big Deal Days.

Using any of these Aqara smart home products means having devices that deeply integrate with Apple Home and Apple devices while maintaining user privacy and security. Even if you’re not using Apple Home, Aqara products work with Alexa, Google Home, and Aqara’s own smart home app.

Whichever you choose, these devices can improve your home security and give you peace of mind.

Aqara Smart Lock U100

The Aqara Smart Lock U100 is a deadbolt replacement that has multiple ways of unlocking — integrating HomeKit devices in an Apple Home, a keypad that supports offline passwords, and a fingerprint sensor with 98.6% accuracy. There’s even a physical key or optional NFC card if needed.

Apple Home Key support means users can tap their iPhone or Apple Watch to lock or unlock the smart lock using built-in NFC technology. This works even when the iPhone’s battery is too depleted to power the iPhone on.

The fingerprint sensor can store up to 50 fingerprints locally. It is protected by AES128 encryption to keep fingerprints safe.

The battery will last up to 8 months before needing to be replaced. There is also a USB-C port for providing temporary power in case of a dead battery when locked outside.

Aqara Smart Lock U300

The Aqara Smart Lock U300 is a few steps above the U100 and replaces the door knob or lever, not the deadbolt. It works via the Matter over Thread protocol and is compatible with Apple Home as long as you have a device like the Apple TV 4K or HomePod connecting your smart home devices.

Like the U100, the U300 supports offline passwords, PINs, fingerprints, a physical key, and Apple Home Key. It can be tied into Aqara automations and other apps using an Aqara Thread-enabled Matter Hub.

The U300 is excellent as an indoor or outdoor lock. Since it replaces the doorknob, it can fit in anywhere in your home.

Passage Mode enables users to move freely without auto-lock kicking in, and do not disturb mutes lock sounds during specific time frames. Both work to make the smart door lock work best for the user at different times.

The battery life lasts about 10 months. Two USB-C ports are available for emergency backup power.

Aqara Video Doorbell G4

If you’re in the market for a smart lock with Home Key or other smart home accessories, you’re likely also interested in HomeKit Secure Video and smart doorbells. Having the Aqara Video Doorbell G4 means having a smart doorbell connected to your HomeKit devices that doubles as a security camera for your porch.

HomeKit Secure Video requires a paid subscription to iCloud+, but the Aqara Video Doorbell G4 works without that feature. It can connect to Alexa, Google Assistant, or the Aqara smart home app.

Insert a microSD card to record 24/7 up to 512GB of data. Apple’s HomeKit Secure Video records when events are detected and stores footage for a week.

Of course, this is also a doorbell, which can chime your HomePods around your home when rung, show a notification on Apple TV and other devices, and recognize the person’s face using secure data provided by your iPhone’s face recognition data. The doorbell also has a 95 dB speaker for playing chimes or sounding a siren.

A two-way microphone and speaker are also available for speaking through your smartphone to whoever rang the doorbell. After verifying who is at the door, users can easily unlock the door via the Apple Home app in-camera controls.
