Say in front:
Nowadays, the development of science and technology is really obvious to all, and many traditional industries and products have been replaced, which is also common in our lives. Take our common anti-theft door locks, which are gradually replaced by smart door locks. Smart door locks have a high safety factor, and there are various ways to unlock them. More importantly, you don’t have to worry about not being able to get home if you forget to bring your keys when you go out.
I forgot to bring my key when I went out some time ago, and waited outside for two hours. With the help of the unlocking company, I finally got into the house, and of course I spent 200 yuan’s unlocking fee. From then on, I began to pay attention to this smart door lock, and finally I started with K6P smart door lock produced by TCL in terms of cost performance, quality and function, and word of mouth. Let me share it with you today.
Product details and experience:
Speaking of TCL, I believe everyone will be familiar with it, especially for the post-80s generation, TCL Ace TV simply accompanied us through the whole childhood. Nowadays, in order to meet the market demand, TCL has also launched its own smart door lock. I have great confidence in its quality. After all, the ace 21-inch color TV at home is still in normal use.
Without further ado, let’s start with the packaging, which is wrapped in a kraft paper box. In addition to TCL’s brand logo, there is also a slogan "Creativity touches life" on the cover. From this, we can see how important creativity is to TCL, and indeed, good creativity can not only touch life, but also touch everyone.
When I opened the package, I first saw that it was very neat. All kinds of accessories are packaged independently and are very firm in their respective grooves. On the floor below the accessories, it is today’s protagonist TCL intelligent door lock K6P. Fully armed packages ensure the safety of transportation.
Let’s take a look at the accessories. In addition to this K6P smart door lock, we are also equipped with a C-class lock core, metal door bars, two extended keys, two magnetic cards, a lithium battery, installation tools and accessories, and drawings. Overall, it is still very rich.
The face value of this TCL smart door lock K6P is still very eye-catching, the panel is all black, and the surface is frosted, which can effectively prevent fingerprints. In the touch area, a bright black design is adopted, which is made of plastic and looks very textured. The armrest design of the front and rear door lock panels is not symmetrical, which is reflected in their height, so the design should follow the characteristics of the golden section.
The style of the door handle is very special, oval design, very round to the touch, like a pebble. The handle of the front panel is in the lower middle position, which is about the position of the golden section point, which is very beautiful, and the vertical handle does not affect the operation of the functional area of the touch panel; The handle of the rear panel is just in the middle position, in order to leave room for the anti-lock key below.
The power supply is equipped with a whole 4200mAh lithium battery, and the battery compartment is located at the upper position of the rear panel. It is locked by snap, and it will be opened by gently pressing this compartment cover. Generally, the traditional No.5 battery is used as the power supply system for smart locks, but it is the first time to use lithium batteries, which also ensures the stability and safety of door locks.
The touch area of the front panel is the password input, and the numbers are all backlit with white light after electric connection, which is convenient for use at night. In addition, this smart door lock also supports virtual passwords, which means that when we input passwords, we can input some fake numbers to confuse them, as long as there are continuous correct passwords. In this way, if there are others behind us, we don’t have to worry about leaks.
At the bottom of the password area, there is also an icon of the doorbell. When touched, the doorbell will sound, which has reminded the people inside the door. A circular speaker hole can be seen below the doorbell, and the measured sound is still very loud.
Rubber protective pads are designed on the back of the front and rear panels, which can play a good sealing role and protect the door panels. It is worth saying that its rubber pad is a whole piece, unlike other brands that only have it at the border. It can be seen that TCL is really kind in workmanship.
The related connecting wires are designed in a bold way and wrapped in a snakeskin tube. The red button on the back is an anti-disassembly button. As long as it is disassembled, it will activate it to sound an alarm. This is a bit like the ETC device on our car. As long as it is disassembled, it will face machine failure and need to be reactivated at the outlet.
TCL K6P smart door lock is equipped with two extended keys and two access cards for users. It is necessary to configure the mechanical key for the intelligent door lock, mainly considering that the door lock can be unlocked smoothly without power, which plays a backup role. It is recommended that users prepare an emergency one in other places, such as the car and the office.
The access card, in fact, is an NFC card. The material is very thick and firm, and it is small in size. It is convenient to carry and unlock. After setting, you only need to put the access card near the identification area of the door lock to unlock it. But to be on the safe side, this access card does not support copying, and of course we should not lose it.
Installation experience:
After talking about the details and settings of this door lock, let’s talk about the installation next. TCL provided a free door-to-door installation service. As soon as the door lock arrived, the installation master contacted me by phone, and the time was reserved for the door-to-door installation. The master was very quick and came to the door to install it in the afternoon. Before buying a lock, you only need to give the customer service a photo of the side of the door lock to judge whether your door lock can be installed, which is still very worry-free.
In addition, no matter whether your door lock is a standard lock cylinder or a overlord lock cylinder, the installation master will bring the lock body to the door for installation without charge, which is also the price in the industry. I remember that when I installed the door, the overlord lock core needed more than 100 yuan. It seems that TCL is really the right choice this time.
After half an hour of installation, it was finally done. The installed door lock still looks beautiful. After all, is it a wild color? It matches my door very well, which instantly adds a lot of sense of technology to the door. The lock core of this door lock is equipped with a tongue sensor, which will remind the user after 5 seconds when the door is beautiful. And it will automatically lock after closing the door. Isn’t that sweet?
As mentioned earlier, the rubber pad is designed on the back of the door lock panel, which can be seen that it is very close to the door panel after installation. This not only protects the paint surface of the door, but also won’t produce abnormal sound after a long time. The cobblestone door handle feels good, round and comfortable. Because it is a double bearing design, it is very easy to push it without damping.
When the password area is lit, the numbers are still very clear, which supports 32-bit virtual password design and greatly improves the safety factor. I usually enter some numbers randomly before and after the real password, and it will be unlocked instantly, which is very convenient. When friends and relatives visit, you don’t have to worry about password leakage. After all, it is necessary to guard against people.
In addition to fingerprint, NFC and password unlocking, this TCL smart lock can also be used in combination with mobile APP to realize more functions combined with unlocking methods. This software is called "TCL Smart Home". After installation, you can officially use it after logging in with your mobile phone number.
The "TCL Smart Home" APP is really powerful. Just like Xiaomi Mijia APP, in addition to reminding your lock to open and close the door, it can also realize the joining and linkage of a variety of smart products, which is also the strength of this product. After all, the TCL IoT smart lock K6P itself is also a smart lock that can be used for the Internet of Things.
In the scene, we can customize various scene experiences, including manual scenes and automatic scenes, but all these need to be combined with various smart products. Of course, you can also bind Huawei and JD.COM accounts.
After binding this K6P door lock, you can view the door lock log in the APP, and when to unlock and lock it, the user’s operation has a detailed record. There is even a reminder of not closing the door. Is this function very powerful? In addition, there is a key authorization function. When a family member or friend visits and you are not at home, you can authorize the key to the visitor and wait for you to go home.
This is the whole sharing about this TCL intelligent door lock K6P, and it will be over soon. Finally, let me briefly summarize it.
Write at the end:
At present, I have experienced this TCL intelligent door lock K6P for some time, and there are many remarkable places. The first is the workmanship and quality of the smart lock, with thoughtful design and solid workmanship. Secondly, it is more powerful with APP, and more smart devices can be added. I still remember the service clearly. The service is really useless, and the door-to-door installation is too fast. In short, it was a very satisfying shopping experience.
Of course, this TCL smart door lock also has shortcomings, that is, its password panel and battery compartment cover are too easy to get fingerprints, and it will be better if it can be improved.
