Durex in the door lock industry Asia Pacific Tianneng T107 smart lock review

[Mobile China Review] What is most important in today’s society, of course safety is the most important! As small as scissors and mobile phone cases; as large as furniture and cars, the proportion of safety and design is becoming more and more important. However, many times people do not pay special attention to the safety of familiar items around them, which is commonly known as \”darkness under the light\”. But usually the more people ignore the place, the more security must be guaranteed. Door locks serve as a connection node between the small world inside your house and the society outside your house, but everyone is unaware of the safety of their own door locks. So many criminals take advantage of this and walk through the house as if there is no one there.

The editor encountered this situation when I was renting a house. I watched the housing agent directly use his business card to open the door lock and install this kind of The editor would not dare to rent a house with a locked door. Due to the complexity of traditional door locks, it is difficult for people to distinguish good from bad. If you encounter such a junk lock, the little property in your house will really be \”GG\”. At this time, smart door locks have become a good choice for everyone. Not only can they save you the trouble of carrying keys every day, but they can also be opened and closed whenever you want. It is entirely up to you to control who can enter and who cannot.

When it comes to smart door locks, one brand has to be mentioned, and that is Asia Pacific Tianneng. As the top smart lock R&D company in China, the editor got one of their T107 smart locks. Now everyone will follow the editor to see whether this lock is worthy of its reputation or not.

Lock PLUS in smart lock

If the editor’s first impression of this lock is that it is big. The size of other smart locks is like a medium cup in Starbucks, so the size of Asia Pacific Tianneng\’s lock is the extra large cup in Starbucks. The impact of a larger volume is that it gives people a greater impact on the visual perception, which is both an advantage and a disadvantage. When the materials are well painted and the assembly process is good, it will give people a sense of high-end and luxury. But as long as there is a flaw in one aspect, it will feel cheap.

The T107 smart lock that adopts alloy integrated die-casting molding process will naturally not have such a situation. When you get the entire lock body, it gives the editor a feeling In a dialect, it is \”weighed in the hand\” and weighs as much as a brick. The thickness of the lock body is also quite thick, not comparable to that of thin iron sheets. It feels durable, safe and reliable.

High-end goods with both internal and external qualities

We can see from the internal structure of T107 that the high-end feel of T107 is not only reflected on the outside. From the internal layout, we can see that Asia Pacific Tianneng is here. This smart door lock has its own ideas and design sense. The entire internal layout is simple and elegant. The components of each part will have their own corresponding positions, which is not cluttered at all. After installation, each internal connection line has its own Corresponding lines, rather than randomly tangled together. Use simple, clear and organized to describe T107The internal structure is quite appropriate.

Unlike those coquettish bitches who directly expose the touch panel to the outside, Asia Pacific Tianneng T107 can be regarded as a lady. A whole metal panel protects the touch screen and fingerprint recognition module tightly. Of course, this is not because the T107 touch screen cannot be exposed to the outside. If the OLED touch screen made of tempered glass is not maliciously damaged, its quality will be poor. One wait and one stick. But if you encounter that kind of handicap, no one’s touch screen can guarantee that it will be intact. When there is a layer of metal panel protection on the outside, it is not only effectively dustproof and waterproof, but also ensures aesthetics while ensuring practicality, which is quite nice.

Of course, no matter how good the design is, there will be some small shortcomings, and Asia Pacific Tianneng T107 is no exception. During the editor\’s experience, the most dissatisfactory point is that the mechanical anti-locking knob is relatively loose after installation, which seems to reduce the quality of this lock. There is also a mechanical keyhole baffle that uses magnetic suction and needs to be buckled and turned to open. This means that for people like me who don\’t have fingernails, the user experience is not good and it takes a lot of trouble to open it. The second is that it is as loose as the mechanical anti-locking knob. If possible, the editor recommends that a sliding cover design be used next time, which will make it feel better. Also, for the convenience of disassembly, the battery compartment has a black plastic plate on the metal panel to increase friction, which I feel is detrimental to the appearance. After all, metal is oneThe design is much more beautiful than opening an opening on it.

Durex in the door lock industry

Why should we compare a family planning product to a smart door lock? Because they all have one thing in common, which is safety. For a product like this, one is guarding the small door and the other is guarding the gate. If you fail to guard it, someone may be killed if you are not careful. Asia Pacific Tianneng T107 not only achieves safety in terms of materials, but also takes into account many factors and considerations in unlocking, achieving rich unlocking methods, diverse unlocking postures, and a high safety factor.

Asia Pacific Tianneng T107 provides 5 unlocking methods, namely fingerprint unlocking, password unlocking, mobile phone unlocking, card swiping unlocking, and key unlocking, covering all smart phones on the market. The mainstream unlocking method of locks. But if you are broad but not refined, you will become a blind man splitting corns, losing a lot for a small thing. Practice is the only criterion for testing truth. After the editor\’s personal testing, we will see which method is better.

Is it general but not expert or proficient in everything?

First of all, the editor experienced the fingerprint recognition unlocking on T107. According to the official information of Asia Pacific Tianneng According to the introduction, the T107 uses a fingerprint recognition module imported from Sweden from FPC. Currently, FPC’s fingerprint modules are widely used in mobile phones and banks. And the T107 is equipped with a semiconductor fingerprint module. Compared with fingerprint locks with optical readers on the market, semiconductors have the advantages of higher security, the ability to read fingerprints in humid conditions, and a longer service life. The most important thing is to prevent fingerprint copying. After actual testing by the editor, when the fingers are dry, it can be unlocked perfectly 10 times; when the fingers are wet (similar to sweaty hands), the unlocking can be successful three times out of 5 times; when the hands are wet, it cannot be unlocked successfully. Unlocked. Judging from the actual experience, there is no problem in daily use; it can be unlocked normally even when sweating in the hot summer; but when it rains or there is water on your hands, you have to wipe your hands. Done.

From the perspective of the accuracy of fingerprint unlocking, the editor is quite satisfied with the result. Next, the editor tried the mobile APP unlocking and found that there are more ways to play it.inside. After a series of binding and verification on the mobile phone, you can perform unlocking operations on the mobile APP. Of course, this is only the most basic operation. If it is just a simple unlocking, then this APP will be too useless.

In the APP, the owner can share the key to unlock the door. After filling in the other party\’s mobile phone number, the owner can set the validity time and number of times the password is valid. When you leave something behind at home, you can use this method to ask a friend or colleague to bring it over for you. It eliminates the trouble of running back and forth during the process of picking up and delivering keys, saving both time and effort. And through this method, there are also three verification methods, namely no verification, network authentication and owner authentication, which can guarantee security and freedom.

Originally, the editor did not want to mention password unlocking too much, because almost all smart door locks on the market will have password unlocking, the most basic unlocking function. function, so how to play new tricks in the most basic functions? In the password unlocking function of T107, Asia Pacific Tianneng has introduced a \”virtual password\” input. If there are other people around when opening the door, such as friends, cleaning aunts, etc., you only need to add 6 digits in front of and behind the correct password as interference. Items can confuse others.

In addition, T107 also comes with two access cards, which provides convenience for families with elderly people and children. For the elderly, it is easy to forget passwords as they get older, and for children, it is inconvenient to use fingerprint recognition due to their height. Access control cards solve this problem very well and solve the way for all ages to go out. But I don’t know if it’s because of the access card in the editor’s hand. There is no problem with one of the access cards, but the recognition rate of the other one is not very high.

Cut the appearance to see the essence

As the heart of a lock, the importance of the lock core cannot be overstated And, Asia Pacific Tianneng T107 adopts the industry\’s mainstream super B-level lock cylinder with a flat key. The key slot is single-sided or double-sided with two rows of concave and S shapes, or an inner and outer double snake-shaped internal milling groove structure. It is the most complex lock cylinder and the safest lock cylinder. The tool opening time is 270 minutes. The above cannot even be turned on. In terms of security, it has withstood the test of the market and is the choice of most people. It is also the general trend of home security in the future.

In addition, T107 is equipped with an S6068 lock body. The advantage of this is that smart locks using standard lock bodies can avoid more installation troubles. Mainstream anti-theft lock holes can be used, and it can be easily installed by just drilling a few holes in the door. The installation of non-standard lock bodies is very troublesome and requires professionals to modify the door frame, so non-experienced players should be cautious.

Those thoughtful little functions

At the end of the article, the editor would like to say some thoughtful little features. Needless to say, there are functions such as key unlocking and the ability to use power bank to open the door. In the Asia-Pacific Tianneng T107, it has a mechanical anti-lock function, which can add a lock to the door lock setting.It has sound effects and can also set the door lock to be always open. This function can be said to be quite practical at certain times.

Of course, there is also the anti-cat\’s eye unlocking function. Nowadays, many criminals use the cat\’s eye to open locks, which has caused great security risks. The anti-cat\’s eye function in T107, can effectively solve this problem. In addition, Asia Pacific Tianneng\’s smart locks are made of fireproof materials. In the event of a fire, T107 can cut off the internal transfer of the fire, providing time for survival.

In fact, what I regret the most is that the automatic locking function was not included in T107. You need to close the door and lift the handle. Only then will the main deadbolt pop out, realizing the purpose of locking the door. Therefore, the editor still hopes that Asia Pacific can add this function to the next generation of products.

Summary

As a smart door lock that is both internal and external, Asia Pacific Tianneng T107 uses exquisite materials, has a grand appearance, practical functions and a good experience. As a home smart lock, there are no shortcomings. Although there are some small regrets in some places, the flaws cannot be concealed. It is a smart door lock suitable for all ages in the home.
