Lenovo A10 smart lock: the slimmest push-pull face recognition lock in the range, with an 18.6 mm outer panel for Dubai apartments and modern doors.
The Lenovo A10 is the slim push-pull face recognition smart lock to pick for a Dubai apartment or modern door, if looks and a low profile matter more than extra features. Its outer panel is just 18.6 mm deep, the slimmest in this Lenovo push-pull family, and it still gives you 3D face and fingerprint entry with video. A radar sensor notices you approaching and wakes the lock. You look at the camera or touch the fingerprint pad, then push or pull the handle. PIN codes, cards, the Tuya app and a mechanical key cover everyone else. When a visitor rings, you get a video call on your phone and can open remotely, and clips stay on Tuya's cloud for one rolling day. A single 5000mAh rechargeable battery runs it, which Lenovo's lab puts at about three months per charge. On your side, the door needs a working Wi-Fi signal and a cut-out that accepts the mechanical or semi-auto mortise body. Lenovo does not publish a door thickness range for the A10, so we measure your door and confirm with the supplier first. The 70°C rating is fine for a Dubai entrance, sunny or not. Be clear on the limits. There is no palm vein, no backup battery, one colour only (Phantom black) and no listed Alexa or Google support. No UAE shop stocks it right now either, so it is sourced to order and lead time applies.

The A10 makes most sense on an apartment door or a modern villa door with a clean, flat finish, where a thick panel would spoil the look or catch bags in a narrow corridor. Tenants need landlord consent first, and many Dubai towers treat the entrance door as part of the fire safety system, so building management approval comes before any order. We check the door thickness, the mortise cut-out and the Wi-Fi at the door, because Lenovo gives no thickness range for this model. With a single battery and no backup, set a reminder to charge it every couple of months, especially before a long summer trip. A DEWA cut only interrupts app access; the lock keeps working on its battery. Because it is imported to order, plan the change of lock around the lead time rather than expecting next-day supply.
Lenovo in the UAE. Lenovo-branded smart locks and cameras are made by Yunka Intelligent (Shenzhen) under licence as part of Lenovo's smart-device ecosystem, rather than by Lenovo's computer business. Most of the locks run on the Tuya / Smart Life app, while the cameras use the cam720 app. UAE availability is patchy: a few models are stocked by specialist smart-lock retailers and many are sourced to order, so we confirm the exact model, lock body and lead time before quoting.
