2026 verdict
In a family entryway where kids forget codes, the Wyze Palm Lock is the better smart lock of these two, with palm-vein entry and a keypad on the door itself.
It is the better reviewed lock, carries an IP53 rating, and its keypad supports one-time guest codes and anti-peep entry, backed by a dual battery with a USB-C emergency port. The Nuki Smart Lock Go wins on reach: Matter over Thread with Apple Home, Google, Alexa, SmartThings and Home Assistant, plus Bluetooth, auto-unlock as you approach and a tool-free retrofit over a European cylinder. The two fit different doors, since the Wyze replaces a US-style deadbolt and the Nuki mounts inside over a euro cylinder. Pick the Wyze Palm Lock for a deadbolt door on Alexa or Google Home, and the Nuki Smart Lock Go for a European door in a Matter or Apple home.

What owners say
Owners of both locks value getting in without reaching for anything, and both groups mention easy installation. Nuki Smart Lock Go owners single out a renter-friendly retrofit with no damage to the door, auto-unlock as they arrive with shopping and Nuki's fast replacements, but they complain that remote and Alexa access needed a paid add-on, and several report motor errors within the first year and AA batteries swelling or leaking. Wyze Palm Lock owners talk about palm recognition that works in the dark and for children, and a backup battery that removes lockout worries, while their main complaint is storm or screen doors draining the battery in proximity mode.
