2026 verdict
Only price and owner reception separate these two fingerprint deadbolts, and both favor the Wyze Auto-Lock Bolt v2, which makes it the pick in this smart lock comparison.
Every other row the page compares ends level: 8 AA batteries, built-in Wi-Fi, fingerprint, keypad with anti-peep codes, physical key, remote access, auto-lock after closing and Alexa support. Beyond those rows, the Philips Wi-Fi Smart Deadbolt DDL242X brings a 2-year warranty, Bluetooth, color options, an Away mode, one-time and periodic passcodes and documented Google Home support, while the Wyze adds a USB-C emergency port and a rated battery life of about 8 months. If cost matters most, get the Wyze Auto-Lock Bolt v2; if scheduled guest codes, Away mode and a longer warranty are worth paying for, get the Philips Wi-Fi Smart Deadbolt DDL242X.
