SwitchBot Lock Pro

Quick verdict

The Lock Pro sits in a sweet spot. It gives you Bluetooth local control for Home Assistant and Matter compatibility via the Hub 2 for everything else. You miss the fingerprint reader of the Ultra, but the price is easier to stomach. If you already own a SwitchBot Hub 2, this is an easy choice. Just know that Matter requires that hub.

Standout: Matter-capable smart lock via Hub 2, with solid Bluetooth local control as a fallback.
