Wyze Palm Lock: Wave Your Hand, Question Your Freedom

Wyze has unleashed the Palm Lock at $129.98, a swipe-left for your door powered by infrared vein scanning—because forehead sweat just won’t cut it. This $130 marvel outsmarts the $359.99 Philips Deadbolt by recognizing veins, not fingerprints—because apparently fingers are too mainstream. Forgot your gloves? No worries, you can still stab in a code, use a key, or summon your phone’s divine intervention via Wi-Fi and Alexa. With dual rechargeable batteries (one lasts 6 months, the other hangs on for 2), a USB-C port for emergency juice, and a chirping gyroscope to nag you if you leave the door open, Wyze pretty much turned freedom into a high-tech, battery-operated inconvenience. Meanwhile, real Americans are scratching their heads wondering when our founding fathers signed off on unlocking with veins instead of an eagle’s cry.
