Lockly Visage Zeno Series Smart Lock - Facial Recognition Keyless

Our review of the Lockly Visage Zeno Series finds it best suited for homeowners who value hands-free, secure entry and modern smart home integration; the single biggest reason to buy is its reliable facial recognition that opens the door automatically as you approach. Setup and installation are straightforward for a DIY-minded person, and the combination of facial ID, a fast 3D fingerprint sensor, and built-in Wi-Fi makes daily use effortless and flexible for families, frequent hosts, or anyone wanting fewer physical keys.

Key Features

• Facial recognition: Dual infrared sensors detect and unlock for registered faces day or night without touching the lock, making entry truly hands-free.
• Apple Home Key integration: Use your iPhone or Apple Watch to tap and unlock, create guest access, and run automations through the Apple Home app.
• Self-learning fingerprint sensor: A 3D biometric reader with AI learning recognizes prints in about 0.2 seconds and can store up to 99 fingerprints for fast access.
• Built-in Wi-Fi and app control: The Lockly Home app allows remote locking, unlocking, access sharing, and activity monitoring without needing an external bridge.
• Multiple entry methods: Unlock via face, fingerprint, PIN keypad, app, physical key, Apple Watch, or voice assistants for versatile access options.
• Rechargeable power: Comes with two 10,000mAh batteries that provide up to six months of typical use, reducing battery swaps and waste.

Who It's For

The Visage Zeno is ideal for households that want a high-tech, keyless entry with reliable biometrics and smart home compatibility; families, rental hosts, and anyone who frequently arrives with hands full will appreciate the automatic facial unlock and fast fingerprint reader. It is also a good pick for Apple users who want seamless Home Key and Siri interactions with the door lock.

Those who should look elsewhere include buyers who need a budget basic deadbolt without smart features or customers who prefer a separate hub-centric ecosystem; while the Visage Zeno simplifies connectivity with built-in Wi-Fi, it is aimed at users who want more than a conventional mechanical lock.
