In the past, it has become a habit for people to go out with a key, and with the emergence of fingerprint locks, this situation has also been broken, more and more people use fingerprint locks, but with long-term use, its disadvantages have gradually emerged.
There are these three fatal shortcomings, so that many people began to abandon the fingerprint lock, is the fingerprint lock really so unbearable?
Development process
I don't know when the door is locked and locked, it has become a habit in people's daily life, of course, this is nothing more than for security.
Because it is easy to steal if it is not locked, theft continues despite the presence of cameras and the maintenance of the law.
In this case, people need to be more cautious, and when locking, people always make sure that they have the key with them.
Some people remember their keys as soon as they go out, but there are also some people who suddenly forget to bring their keys when they lock the door or go out due to some things.
At this time, there will be a situation where you can't enter the house, and you can only find a master in desperation, spend some money to help unlock it, and some people will directly remove the lock.
But no matter what it is, not having a key will always bring a lot of trouble to people, but with the advent of intelligence, door locks have been improved to a certain extent.
Today's door locks have been replaced by smart locks, which greatly solves the problem of people going out without keys, and most of them use fingerprint locks.
It doesn't need a key to open the door smoothly, and of course there is a code on the fingerprint lock, which can also be entered into the code.
The so-called fingerprint lock is to use fingerprints to collect information and identify it, and if it matches, it will actively open the door under the command.
Acquisition plays an important role in this process, and today it is divided into two parts, optical and semiconductor technology.
Although the two work in different ways, the main result is the same, they both scan the fingerprint to make the next command.
In fact, these are mainly controlled by the chip inside, but it should be noted that we cannot directly judge the quality of the fingerprint lock chip.
Therefore, the vast majority of people buy through brand-name fingerprint locks, which greatly reduces the problem of price and quality mismatch.
So, what are the advantages of fingerprint locks?
First of all, it plays a role in security, and the reason why fingerprint lock is an intelligent lock is not only through fingerprint recognition, but also because of the voice function.
Just like today's smartphones, they all have a specific language function that allows you to speak into a position that displays the information you want.
This is the case with fingerprint locks, once a burglar or stranger enters the house, when they take measures, the fingerprint lock will enhance the voice and further let the owner know the message.
Of course, the fingerprint lock can also be bound to the mobile phone, and after the above reaction to the situation, the fingerprint lock will send the abnormality to the mobile phone to remind the user.
This improves the problem of the anti-theft device, and also allows the user to understand the intelligent function of the fingerprint lock.
And this feature can also be used in reverse, for example, if a relative or friend wants to visit your home and happens to be away from home.
In order to avoid relatives and friends waiting outside for too long, you use your mobile phone to remotely control and unlock it.
If you find this a bit troublesome, you can let them hire fingerprints, because the fingerprint lock can have multiple users, and it can also better solve this problem and manage the family.
However, it should be noted that although the fingerprint lock is very convenient, it is also supported by power, and it must be charged in time when the battery is low.
If you really want to forget to charge, some fingerprint locks have an emergency charging port, which can be charged with a power bank or other power source.
Since fingerprint locks are so easy to use, why do many people abandon them?
Don't look at the many advantages of fingerprint locks, in fact, there are still many defects, and there are three serious defects that are the most obvious.
There are hidden dangers
Today, society has been fully modernized, not only on the eating and drinking utensils, but also on the door locks.
Although fingerprint locks are a little more secure than ordinary door locks, they are not 100% guaranteed, which must be explained from the quality point of view.
As we all know, a good quality product has a relatively high practicability, even if it is used for many years, it will not be damaged, and there are no many problems.
But if it is a poor quality product, these cannot be guaranteed, and the same is true for fingerprint locks, quality determines safety.
But not the quality of the fingerprint locks sold on the market is very good, the reason why the market has become a market, there is mainly a problem of interests, and some businesses want to get more profits.
They will reduce the quality of the fingerprint lock relatively, so that the cost will also be reduced, so as to obtain more profits.
This will lead to a situation where the fingerprint lock is in use, the security risks are greatly increased, of course, there will be some good quality fingerprint locks, but there will be problems after a long time.
For example, fingerprint residue, every time we take a fingerprint, there will be some fingerprint marks on it, and some people may use these fingerprint marks to further copy the fingerprints and open the door.
If that's the case, the theft rate is much higher.
And this is not the most exaggerated, many netizens have reported that the fingerprint lock will also automatically open the door, and the door opening in the middle of the night is also frequent.
It is obviously unreasonable to know that there is no directive. However, judging from the photos sent by netizens, the situation is indeed true, as for why the fingerprint lock can automatically open the door, it is a little unclear.
It may be that the recognition function is weak, or there may be quality problems.
In any case, if this problem can occur, it means that there are still certain security risks in fingerprint locks, especially the longer they are used, the more this security risk will rise.
However, in the eyes of some netizens, the lock is used to "prevent the gentleman from the villain", even if the fingerprint lock is not pryed open.
And there are some fingerprint locks, although the security is very strong, once the surgery is warped, it is easy to identify and open the door.
All in all, although fingerprint locks are convenient and fast, with a certain degree of security, they are not 100%, and everything needs to be paid attention to.
Poor recognition skills
I believe that the vast majority of people will have such a consensus, when the product is bought, it is very quick and convenient to use at first, and there is no problem at all.
However, after a long period of use, more and more problems are found.
For example, the mobile phone in daily life, at the beginning, people used it very quickly, but after a few years, it stuck, which is because the parts in the mobile phone are aging.
The same is true for fingerprint locks, especially in the recognition function, as long as the fingerprint is touched at first, it will be recognized immediately in less than a second.
However, over time, people will find that the recognition function is getting weaker and weaker, which may be due to many reasons, such as fingerprint overlay.
Fingerprint coverage is essential, after all, the fingerprint lock installed at home is not only used by one person, but also by family and relatives and friends.
Because everyone's fingerprint is different, it is easy to cause fingerprint coverage after long-term use, and the recognition ability should be weakened.
At the same time, the external environment is also an important reason, we all know that in winter, although the weather is cold, but unusually dry, this will cause skin damage, especially for people who are sensitive to dry environments.
Once the fingerprint is damaged, they will not be able to open the door after they go to the fingerprint recognition to unlock it, if there are people in the house who are fine, if they live alone, this situation will occur.
Although these are unavoidable, after all, the fingerprint lock itself needs to be recognized, but this alone brings a lot of confusion to many people.
Then many people may unlock with a password, and while this is a good solution, this method is not advisable for people in the southern "back to the south" environment.
Because people have been locked before they have entered the password, the time is too short, and the identification has failed, in desperation, many people will call the master for help.
After this incident, many people will no longer use fingerprint locks, after all, under the intelligent precursor, there are many troubles.
Finally, the fingerprint lock itself has a weak recognition function, which is a quality problem, and then coupled with external environmental factors, it can be said that it is added to the fire, and it is very difficult to identify successfully.
That's why many people would rather open the door with a key than a fingerprint lock.
Repair issues
In addition to the above two defects, repair is also a major factor.
Nowadays, the fingerprint locks on the market are surprisingly expensive, which may be the reason for the development of the market.
Since it is so expensive, I believe that the quality will not necessarily be bad, right?
If you think so, you are very wrong, just imagine, there are many fingerprint lock brands on the market today, which does not mean that every fingerprint lock is of good quality.
If this is the case, there will be no expensive brands in the market that people flock to, and because of this, some people buy fingerprint locks with unequal price and quality.
This can lead to a series of failures, in addition to the aforementioned identification functions, as well as water ingress and short circuits on rainy days.
After these problems appear, many people will call the after-sales service to help repair, of course, the expensive fingerprint lock, it is more troublesome to repair, and the cost can be imagined.
At the same time, there is no guarantee that there will be no recurrence of problems after repairs.
Of course, some netizens have also reported many times that even if it is repaired, it cannot be repaired, for example, when the fingerprint lock cannot be opened in the presence of electricity, the sales cannot be repaired, after all, the door needs to be opened.
This can lead to long waits, direct picking, or repairs that are not available without fixed accessories.
You must know that the components of each brand of fingerprint lock are different, which needs to be matched when repairing.
In short, the existence of these three drawbacks of fingerprint locks has made many people begin to abandon them, after all, the problem is not ordinary.
Author's point of view
Despite the pros and cons of fingerprint locks, there are still people who use them today, on the one hand, to enjoy intelligence, and on the other hand, people think that the odds of the said problems are very small.
