Thank you for that post. I had missed all the news from CES 2026.Aqara U400 with UWB now available via Apple Store:

Great for folks with Apple iPhones and Watches...

This Aqara U400 is one fine specimen of a smart deadbolt lock!
Deadbolts:
I would go ot the extent to suggest everyone have a look at deadbolts types of smart locks. Deadbolts are physically more secure than the rim type of lock , and has a more optimal (smaller) footprint on the door, which translates to price (and hence price performance).
Many years ago, it used to be just Samsung and Yale. They were slow to improve. I was impressed with Aqara U100 when it was launched (see old posts), it's built and price/performance. Aqara U400 takes it further. This is one company to go all out on the deadbolts (because of the size of the US market) - which we will benefit here because it can be installed on our door.
To be updated:
- Apple online store
- Without installation option.
- No information on warranty and the process
- Mid to end March availability date (8-10 weeks on the cart yesterday)
- For U100, the local Singapore distributor added an Aqara hub versus online platforms.
Not sure about this time.
- Can't find more local information and pricing - too early!
- will update more when I can google around.
