Xiaomi Smart Lock E achieves 1000% crowdfunding target in just 30 minutes
by JeetA few days ago, Xiaomi launched its new Smart Lock E for crowdfunding in China for a price of 899 yuan, which is roughly $126. While the company successfully completed the target, how it did is interesting.
As per the report, the Xiaomi Smart Lock E managed to exceed the crowdfunding target by 1000 percent in just 30 minutes of going live on the platform, generating about 900,000 yuan within that time frame.
It comes with support for six unlocking methods — Fingerprint, Password, Temporary Password, Bluetooth, Homekit, and Emergency Key. It’s integrated with a 3D semiconductor fingerprint module at the top of the door handle which the company claim has a recognition rate of 98.5 percent.
The product can also be easily controlled using the built-in Siri or Home application on iPhone, iPad, or even Apple Watch after it has been authorized by the Mi App. Once done, the device can be controlled through voice commands. For instance, when someone comes, just say “Hey Siri, open door lock.” and it’ll do the rest.
There’s a USB Type-C emergency power supply module at the bottom of the device which can temporarily power the product using the mobile power supply. If every digital unlocking system fails to work properly, it also comes with a mechanical lock which can be unlocked using a physical key.
The Xiaomi Smart Lock E is powered by eight batteries which promise to offer 18 months of battery life. The company says that when the power left is less than 20 percent, it starts showing red flashlight, reminding you to change batteries.
