We were fans of Wyze’s original smart deadbolt from 2022—heck we even gave it an Editors’ Choice award—but it arrived with a key drawback: it only supported Bluetooth, not Wi-Fi or any other wireless protocols.

While the first Wyze Lock Bolt is inexpensive compared to other smart locks in its class and boasts an easy setup process, its lack of Wi-Fi or other wireless connectivity means it can’t be controlled remotely without help from the Wyze Video Doorbell. It also suffered from a ho-hum industrial design, and there’s no keyhole option.

Wyze appears to have rectified those issues with the Wyze Lock Bolt v2, which arrives with built-in Wi-Fi, a snazzier tempered-glass design, and a mechanical lock with a key.
