Choosing smart home electronics is less about finding one universal device and more about matching the hardware to the job. The Crestron CP3 is built around home-control and AV integration, while the CAMCAMP and Geek Smart selections are door-access hardware. Within the locks, the key decision is whether you want one camera-equipped handle lock or a lot intended for a larger door project.
Quick take
The Crestron CP3 is the distinct pick for a Crestron-oriented control setup and is the only used item here. CAMCAMP is the single-lock choice with a camera, handle, multiple access methods, and Tuya app support. The two Geek Smart K01-02 lots share the same title and specifications; the lower-listed Geek Smart lot is the more direct choice when that lot format fits the project.

| CAMCAMP Smart Lock with Camera & Handle | USD 116.38 | One camera-equipped keyless entry lock | |

Decision matrix
- Need a controller rather than a lock: Pick the Crestron CP3 3-Series Control System. Its role is control integration, not door access.
- Need a single handle lock with camera features: Choose the CAMCAMP Smart Lock with Camera & Handle. It requires AA batteries.
- Need a lot of 24 matching K01-02 door knobs: Favor the lower-listed Geek Smart K01-02 lot, since the two Geek Smart lots carry matching titles, condition, and compatibility.
- Need Alexa or Google Assistant compatibility in a door-knob lot: Either Geek Smart selection fits that named compatibility; price separates the two entries.
Product notes
Crestron CP3 3-Series Control System - USD 60.00
The Crestron CP3 is the clear fit when the goal is AV and automation control rather than replacing a door knob. HDMI output, an infrared smart-home protocol, and compatibility with IFTTT and Amazon Alexa point to a controller role within a Crestron-oriented setup. Its listed price is also the lowest in this comparison. The limitation is equally important: this unit is used, and its compatible brand is Crestron. Choose the CP3 for an existing or planned Crestron control project, not for fingerprint entry, a keypad, or a keyless door handle.
CAMCAMP Smart Lock with Camera & Handle - USD 116.38
CAMCAMP makes sense for a single entry where a handle lock, camera, and keyless access belong in the same device. The black lock is associated with the Tuya app and WiFi communication, and its access methods include fingerprint, password, fob keycard, app, and physical key unlocking. It also lists a touchscreen keypad, two-way audio, automatic relocking, and support for 100 fingerprints. The tradeoff is its power requirement: it uses AA batteries. This is the most purpose-specific choice for a camera-equipped smart entry rather than a control system or a larger lot of door knobs.
Geek Smart K01-02 Lot - USD 479.00
Use this new Geek Smart K01-02 lot for a multi-door project centered on a Wi-Fi door-knob format. It lists Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant compatibility, and its description specifies an illuminated keypad along with fingerprint access that stores up to 20 fingerprints. Those details make the lot a defined choice for matching door hardware across a larger project. Its limitation is its position against the other Geek Smart K01-02 lot: the product title, condition, and named compatibility match, but this one carries the higher listed price. It is therefore the less price-focused of the two Geek Smart selections.
Geek Smart K01-02 Lot - USD 449.00
This new Geek Smart K01-02 lot presents the same multi-door format at a lower listed price than the title-matched Geek Smart lot. It uses Wi-Fi and is listed for Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant, while the description calls out an illuminated keypad and fingerprint access for up to 20 fingerprints. Choose it when you want the K01-02 door-knob lot and those named smart-home connections. Its limitation is the lot format itself: it is geared toward a larger group of doors rather than the single smart lock represented by the CAMCAMP model. For a matching K01-02 project, this is the more compelling Geek Smart entry.
Final recommendation by use case
For control hardware: Choose the Crestron CP3 3-Series Control System when your project is centered on Crestron-compatible home control and AV equipment.
For one smart entry: Choose the CAMCAMP Smart Lock with Camera & Handle when you want a combined handle lock and keyless-access setup.
For multiple doors: Choose the lower-listed Geek Smart K01-02 lot when its bundled format suits the scope of your project. The higher-listed Geek Smart lot has the same named model and smart-home compatibility, making it the alternate price point rather than the first selection.
