Those using digital lock for own stay can drop some pros and cons review ? how's the reliability of the locks ETC?

My family home uses a Yale Smart Lock and recently installed a Bosch lock for my studio.

Pros :
-Convenient as no need to carry any keys about though we do keep a spare hidden somewhere in the garden.

Cons :
-Good ones are expensive and I would not use any that are cheap to buy unless it is being used for a bedroom.
-Privacy concerns.
-Long term reliability is still unknown as they have not been in widespread use for long.

It is a Malaysia brand from Penang, using German tech and like most locks made in China.

Well for the price vs features it is definitely hard to beat but I would not personally buy one.

I prefer those that are made in Korea and sold by a more reputable company as rather not have something that becomes a pain to hunt for parts.
