control4user007 Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 Anyone know of 3rd party / customer/ dealer reviews or hands on videos of the Chime doorbell or T4? I think the chime has already shipped (?) - and pretty sure the T4 has not shipped yet, but maybe when it does someone can post one. Looking to get a sense of the look and feel (maybe a demo the speed of a t4 compared to a t3, ringing a chime doorbell and how it pops up on the phone / T3, reviewing the snapshot / recording history in the history agent, etc), pros and cons, maybe an unboxing ?

nwanerka Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 I like the picture and video from the chime, great quality, it's got a lot of great features. . I do not like the interface on android. When my doorbell rings my android starts ringing like a phone call and I have to 1st unlock my phone which I guess is normal. The interface on the T3 and the T4 is really good, pop right up in your able to answer or reject the calls. I do not like the interface on android. When my doorbell rings my android starts ringing like a phone call and I have to 1st unlock my phone which I guess is normal but then trying to get right to the doorbell chime seems like it takes too many steps. It might just be how I have it set up on my phone but if they fixed that feature I think it's one of the best video doorbells out on the market today control4user007 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msgreenf Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 Sounds like your phone settings. I have never heard of unlocking phone to answer call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matrix Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 I have been looking on the market place for the Chime, great to hear really positive feedback. Luckily I'm using iOS so hopefully the platform is smooth with a featured interface. Wife is on Android haha. Finding it pretty tough to find, if you have any recommendations that would be great. Can't wait to get my hands on one . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cshepard Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Very happy with the 4 or 5 Chimes we’ve installed so far. Also, I can confirm they work on just two pairs of a Cat cable just in case *someone* happens to damage the wire while digging it out of masonry.... control4user007 and Neo1738 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ILoveC4 Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 T4’s are awesome, and maybe I can make a comparison video with a T3. The chime is great too, but didn’t get a permanent home here due to the way the DS2 mini is flush mount installed. The Chime has a much better camera. Both are phenomenal products.

I do not know for the U.S., but here on the old continent it still says: "This model will begin shipping Q1 2021" on both POE and wifi.

zaphod Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 How does one view the Chime video on a Windows PC? Does it work in Bluestacks or are there other ways to view it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
control4user007 Posted February 17, 2021 Author Share Posted February 17, 2021 Kind of short but hoping to see more of these types of video “walk throughs” of Chime and T4. South Africa C4 user 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmj4 Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 That was a nice little walkthrough (sans audio). Hoping to get mine soon....along with my 10" white T4 (ordered 2 months ago)...along with my Triad One... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I still have 3 outstanding items from my dealer on order including the white 10" T4 from November. Chime and Triad One are on that list as well...

control4user007 Posted March 9, 2021 Author Share Posted March 9, 2021 If only I spoke Italian! Some videos of the chime and T4! Would really love a side by side comparison of a T3 and T4 (speed, ergonomics, etc.). Unboxing the T4: Unboxing Chime: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaphod Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 The first video says that it can't be played as it is private. Strange that they are using Fahenheit temp settings in Italy - or maybe they are using stock video from Control4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEP23 Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Hi - I am ordering the chime but have all T3s installed. Are there any issues with using with T3? I would love to avoid upgrading to T4 although they look pretty awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSTRONG Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 No issues. Work great on t3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
