The Eufy FamiLock S3 Max is a feature-rich smart lock with a 2K video doorbell, palm scanning, and an interior screen, making it a standout high-end option. Its high price and lack of IFTTT support are drawbacks, but it remains a strong choice for comprehensive home security.

Acclaimed 4/5

“The feature‑laden FamiLock Max S3—the first smart lock we’ve seen with an integrated video screen on its interior escutcheon—works well, but its onboard camera won’t make sense in some home environments.”

The Eufy FamiLock S3 Max combines a smart lock and video doorbell with innovative features like palm-vein unlock and a digital peephole, but its high price, poor nighttime video quality, and modest battery life are significant drawbacks.

Acclaimed 7/10
