TCL has made an impressive move into the smart home market with the introduction of its D2 series smart door locks, featuring the D2, D2 Plus, and the top-of-the-line D2 Pro. Known for its televisions, TCL is now expanding its tech portfolio to include innovative home security solutions.
The standout of the series, the D2 Pro, is now available in the US, boasting cutting-edge AI-powered palm vein recognition technology. This feature can unlock the door in just 0.3 seconds by analyzing the blood vessels under your skin, promising a 99.99% accuracy rate—even if your hands are wet or dirty. This model also includes a built-in 10,000 mAh rechargeable battery and a doorbell, offering both practicality and convenience.
If palm vein recognition isn’t your style, the D2 Pro offers versatility with four additional unlocking methods: an app, passcodes, a physical key, and voice control through Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant. All models across the D2 series are equipped for voice control, remote unlocking, and provide real-time notifications and activity tracking via a compatible app.
TCL’s D2 and D2 Plus models cater to different preferences. While they lack palm vein technology, they include reliable PIN and mobile app authentication. The D2 Plus, however, adds an AI-enhanced fingerprint biometric option, setting it apart from the base model. A key selling point of these locks is their compatibility with 2.4 GHz WiFi and an auto-lock function that enhances home security.
The D2 Pro sets a standard with a rechargeable battery, while the D2 Plus, running on AA batteries, offers impressive longevity, lasting up to nine months on a single set.
Pricing for the D2 Pro is set at $169.99, the D2 Plus at $119.99, and the base model D2 at $79.99. These smart locks are now available for purchase on TCL’s official website and through Amazon, making them an accessible choice for enhancing your home’s security and smart capabilities.
