The Eufy Smart Lock E30 is the company’s first Matter device

The latest smart lock from Eufy is its first product to support Matter. The Eufy Smart Lock E30 works over Thread, which should allow for faster responsiveness, longer battery life, and better connectivity than locks that work over Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. The E30 is also the first smart lock from Anker’s smart home arm that works with Apple Home, although Home Key is not supported.

'We’ve seen very few smart locks with Thread and only a handful of Matter-over-Thread locks' As a low-power mesh networking protocol, Thread makes a lot of sense for a door lock. Door locks are located at the edges of your home where Wi-Fi may be weak and are battery-powered. Using a less power-hungry protocol than Wi-Fi should keep them running for longer between battery swaps. But we’ve seen very few locks with Thread.
