After several years of development, smart door locks have been accepted by the market and consumers, and are no longer unfamiliar. However, since the TV series became popular in 2015, the fully automatic push-pull lock has become the "explosion point" of the market, and it has become a hot product sought after by the market with its advantages of convenience, experience and fashion, and various manufacturers have begun to follow up. However, because of its high technical moat barrier, only a few domestic manufacturers can cross the barrier and make the push-pull smart door lock go on the market in batches.
Recently, the evaluation team of "Xingyao Cup" collected the Superman T1 automatic push-pull lock in the market, and made a full disassembly evaluation for everyone. Let us see whether the Superman brand push-pull lock has broken through the moat of push-pull lock technology from a real perspective.
Simple appearance, rich accessories, see the product intention in the details.
At first glance, the evaluation team felt that it was as simple as an Internet brand, not a lock brand. On the black outer packaging, there is only Superman’s brand logo and slogan on the front, and there is no extra color, which is very atmospheric and calm. This is extremely rare in the process of disassembly by the evaluation team, and it also makes us have great expectations for this product.
Opening the outer packaging also makes the evaluators of patients with severe obsessive-compulsive disorder feel very comfortable. The instructions for all kinds of installation accessories are placed reasonably, clearly and clearly, without a trace of redundancy or any waste.
Inside the outer package, there are plenty of materials for installing fittings, such as square bars, screws and tools, especially for connecting square bars. In order to match different door thicknesses, Superman T1 intelligent door lock has adapted various types of square bars, which basically meets various needs and reflects the intention of the product from the details. This packaging design and accessories really made the evaluation team feel the progress as a traditional lock maker.
What interests the evaluation team most is the lock body, which is also one of the core keys to break through the moat of push-pull intelligent door lock technology. Superman T1 intelligent door lock didn’t disappoint the evaluation team. The standard push-pull lock body feels full of materials when held in your hand, and the position design of two fixed heaven and earth poles (red circle in the figure below) is added intimately. This design perfectly solves the problem that the installation master’s fixed heaven and earth hooks are different in level and easy to fall off. The evaluation team must praise one.
Take apart the machine to see the craft, and break through the technical moat with solid craft and workmanship.
No matter how gorgeous the appearance is, the product will not be truly "beautiful" if there is no solid interior and no careful craftsmanship. But when we open the interior of Superman T1 smart door lock, we find that Superman T1 smart door lock is a product that is truly awe-inspiring and made with heart.
The layout does not completely affect the quality of products, but doing a good job of layout plays a very important role in improving the quality of products, and the degree of care of products can be better seen from the layout. Superman T1 intelligent door lock has made great efforts in wiring layout, not only adding wiring slots for the wiring, but also gluing some points that are easy to fall off, which on the one hand weakens the quality risk and does not affect the product quality because of the misplaced data cables, on the other hand, it makes the product look more beautiful after opening.
The evaluation team opened the most important internal components of the push-pull structure, which directly determines the quality stability and use experience of the push-pull lock, and is also one of the core factors to break through the technical moat of the push-pull lock product.
First of all, we can see that the reversing structure of Superman T1 smart door lock is very simple, with only two screws and four positions (red circle in the figure below). Compared with the same period of last year, some brands need to disassemble the push-pull structure and adjust it much more simply, which improves the installation experience and, more importantly, reduces the probability of product quality risks. This kind of design is still clever.
Apart from dismantling the reversing structure and eliminating structural stability factors, Superman is also very willing to use materials at the structural stress points that can ensure the use experience and stability. Whether it is at the transposition stress point, the rotation stress point or the traveling stress point, steel or stainless steel casting materials are used to ensure that the products are not broken. Moreover, from the point of view of structure and technology, relatively mature structure is adopted, and more attention is paid to detail treatment in technology to ensure the stability of product quality.
At this point in the evaluation, in fact, the evaluation team has not expected much about the electronic part, because the current electronic scheme has become increasingly stable. As long as Superman does not save too much on the electronic scheme, this product should be very worth looking forward to.
However, when the evaluation team opened the electronic part, it still gave us a "normal" "surprise". The electronic scheme adopted a modular treatment, and a safe sandwich treatment was made between the main circuit board and the touchpad to ensure the physical safety of the product. The main control MCU adopted a relatively high-end ST stmicroelectronics.
The touch chip adopts the products of a famous Korean brand, and the conventional three-proof and waterproof glue configurations are readily available. At the same time, we have also done the black box and electrostatic test, and there is no misoperation or damage. Thus, its stability can still be guaranteed.
The back panel also has an adapter board for the main control chip of ST, which ensures the stability of the product. At the same time, the evaluation team noticed that Superman’s lock adopted the modular processing method of networking scheme highly praised by the evaluation team, and the networking module was placed in a separate networking module box above the battery box, which is the best scheme in the current situation of small batch, multi-batch and multi-brand smart door locks. It can not only ensure the stability of quality, but also ensure the adaptability in different networking environments.
From the point of workmanship and technology, Superman T1 intelligent door lock is still made with great care, and it has reached a brand-new level in terms of detail treatment and technology treatment, which is at the first-class level in China. Moreover, from the perspective of disassembly, the materials used are also excellent, and it can meet the needs of products with real materials in the required structure.
However, in the process of disassembling the machine, the only thing that the evaluation team has to complain about is the bottom plate protection plate, because it has only been treated with anti-cutting, but it is not consistent with the surface paint, which is a pity that the product is not defective in workmanship.
Simple installation and adaptive function, closer to consumers.
In the eyes of the installation master, there have been several long-standing problems to be solved in the installation of push-pull locks, including the fixing of the hook between heaven and earth, the opening of holes, the misalignment of screw holes, and the misalignment of the lock body when it is too heavy. However, Superman T1 intelligent door lock not only solves the fixing problem of the hook between heaven and earth on the lock body, but also does enough homework on the asymmetry of screw holes and the misalignment between the lock body and the panel.
Firstly, two connectors are added in the lock core position to ensure the alignment between the lock body and the panel. At the same time, the sliding screw structure is used in the fixing screw, which ensures the installation of different screw holes, reduces the problem of re-opening, and allows the evaluation team to install the lock on the lock frame in only ten minutes.
Functionally, Superman T1 smart door lock has fingerprint, password, swipe card, remote, password opening and other ways, which can be described as a full-function lock. At the same time, in the process of setting, clear full voice navigation, with the LED LCD screen at the top, makes the setting very simple and clear, so you don’t have to worry about unclear voice, let alone missing any step.
At the same time, during the evaluation process, the evaluation team found that Superman T1 smart door lock has a brand-new setting function, that is, one-time opening password and periodic password can be set on this machine. This makes the evaluation team shine at the moment. Although this kind of function is not used in many cases, it is very practical. You can set it directly without the phone.
At the same time, the evaluation team also praised the network and distribution function of this lock. The network adopts the light application mode of WeChat official account, which is very convenient. At the same time, the networking adopts the intelligent distribution network. Just connect the mobile phone to the lock first, and it will automatically connect to the local WIFI under WIFI (password is required). The whole process takes less than two minutes, and people with a little network knowledge can easily connect to the network. Let the evaluation team members who are suffering from the distribution network be extremely relaxed.
Let’s go back to the beginning of the article. Because of its deep technical moat, push-pull automatic locks have been popular with consumers since 2015, but until now, there are still few push-pull automatic locks that can be listed in batches in China.
Therefore, when the evaluation team got the Superman T1 push-pull automatic intelligent door lock, it focused on the structure and technology. Only by ensuring the stability and experience of product quality can consumers be guaranteed to use it.
Now that the evaluation is completed, Superman T1 intelligent door lock not only makes great efforts in product technology and structure, but also makes corresponding functions for the needs of consumers in experience. This makes the evaluation team look forward to the future of Superman T1 push-pull automatic smart door lock.
I hope that in the future, China’s smart door lock enterprises, like Superman brands, will continue to dig deep into technology, pay close attention to technology and structure, and create stable, reliable and extremely experienced smart door lock products!
