I really enjoy a broader spectrum of reviews. There are enough channels that only do PC stuff.. I myself do only Knives and EDC and am thinking about doing a bit of home stuff.. I think best is you really do what you want. If you care for it, others will too.

[@hangtenboy]

Thanks for the good and honest review! I bought a T5 today so let's see how it stacks up to the Ecobee I have in my other home!

[@ParadoxdesignsOrg]

I'm used to living in old cabins and house suites, I saw something similar to this at a friends house and was like "what kind of star trek world are you living in??!" lol... they do look super cool.

[@rgruenhaus]

I am getting the T5 soon. Good video. I think the issue with 5Ghz is where the thermostat is located. It doesn't go through walls as easy as 2.4Ghz and the tech line here in the USA is hard enough to get a tech to work with on the phone without those rf issues adding to trying to get one up and running.

[@SimbaC2007]

I am thinking of getting it, It looks very good.

[@mlaw207]

Ive had trouble with the T6 recognizing I'm home if the internet was disrupted and lare re-established. To resolve I had to logout all the connected devices within the geosphere and the log in one device, start to set up a schedule then go back to the geoshere function.

[@bromsman1]

Very good review after I watched got one fitted it and am delighted with it

[@donshue865]

Awesome device! Got mine connected with my Lenovo Smart Display(with Google Assistant) which is also connected to a few home minis. Keep up the good work!

[@batdude2196]

Can this do humidifier control? In Canada in winter we need HUMIDIFIERS, not dehumidifiers. I cannot find a wifi thermostat anywhere that can do this. This excludes most of the Canadian market unfortunately.

[@amendons90]

keep up the good work!! the videos are high quality

[@oldboy9949]

I have this device. The hardware is excellent, however, the software from Resido and Honeywell is dreadfully, it will suddenly go into meltdown wit no connection available via Alexa, only to return to normal days later. It seems that Resido control this device not the owner. I am going to ditch and switch to the Hive.

[@bubblewrap74]

Can it follow a schedule as well as do geofencing? So if I set up a schedule, but have a day off one day and I'm home, will the thermostat follow the schedule but learn that I'm home and figure out to turn on the furnace that day?

[@KennyGeertslol]

Thanks! Helped me a lot

[@adamharmaoui6014]

I HAVE BOUTHE OF THEM THE WIRED EN THE OTHER 1 BUT I KANT GET THE APP THAT U HAVE I DONT KNOW IT DOES NOT WORK BY ME KAN U SEND ME THE NAME PLZ

[@PaulRusling]

Infomrative, but at break-neck speed - I had to listen back again twice to get some bits.(Maybe Im getting old?) There were a fair few negative points raised, Im not sure if they were really that appropriate but it does prove the independence of the reviewer.

[@BeerLeagueGoalieGodfather]

Does geofencing have any real benefit? Adjusting temp when I'm a few miles away would have negligible difference by the time I got home.

[@ponchoiram4237]

Maybe recognize when u leave

[@andym8148]

if the schedules are set and you leave the home does geofencing still tun off the heating and set to away temp and then resume the schedule when you return to home radius?

[@crasovanrazvan6707]

Yes

[@raczyk]

Does the t6 support connectivity to a humidifier or HRV?

[@UnicornReviews]

It turns out that simply subscribing isn't enough, please click the bell thingy too. Thank you.

[@spacebug30]

This video is 2 years old now, do you still use the T6? How does it work on long term? My old thermostat is getting a but glitchy. I'm thinking about buying a smart thermostat and the T6 seems to be good price-quality?

[@craigrob11]

Anyone using this with HomeKit if so can everything be configured within it ?

[@Boricuapa89]

Good Job

[@vouvray59]

Let's have some reviews of Belgian beer.

[@yousefwing]

I like it and go ahead

[@mswallow1322]

wiring the poxy thing up is the REAL question

[@chrissaltaur1254]

how easy is it for a novice to install the honeywell tr6?

[@dumkopf]

I like this review. I'm fine with smart home type stuff. I'm guessing it doesn't have google home/amazon echo connectivity though?

[@UnicornReviews]

No none of that stuff :(

[@vincentjanv]

It does now!

[@lindaquinn3496]

I got one last month for my vacation home. This moth it sends me a message I must change a filter every month? What filter and where is it? If this is true it is very impractical for a home that you leave for periods of time. 🙁

[@Jason52597]

Can this be connected to Samsung Smartthings?

[@aspuzling]

What is the white box??

[@stoicar]

Hi is working with Honeywell hr92 ?

[@tribalfromthetrapdontrappi3030]

Sick!

[@readynow12345]

What is the delay from the phone to the therm my old honeywell was about 10 seconds my friend bought a nest-5gz all changes from phone are in real time what the hell is wrong with honeywell why are they not transitioning to 5gz they remind me of honda in a way they refuse to make an 8cylinder vehicle when everyone else is.

Can it control humidity? I mean, not just displaying humidity level on screen but rather connecting to a humidifier, automatically turn it on and off, when humidity is needed?

[@mm-dz2pm]

Do you need internet gateway for this?

[@lsdemon7773]

what's the difference between t5 and t6?

[@patelvidhu4840]

t5 is cheap. T6 is costly.

[@SinisterSRT]

I don’t even see this T6 anywhere except his link... suspect.

[@cozonacpufos]

T5 is for USA , T6 is for Europe

[@preverror]

T5 is a retail unit with a one year warranty. The T6 is a "commercial" unit with a five year warranty. I was told by my installer that is the only difference.

[@chrismorg31]

why is 5ghz more convenient?

[@Shifterfire]

The irony is, that while i usually watch your videos, this time I thought: boring. But now I actually end up considering whether I want this thermostat. Hahaha. So jokes on me. :p
But most importantly: review what YOU want to review! No interest result in no expertise and bland content (generally).

[@UnicornReviews]

Thank you! I stopped reviewing products I don't personally care about a few months ago. Sometimes it means I only get a couple hundred views, but that's ok. Luckily, I have some content coming up that everyone cares about.

[@DanielPierce]

You don’t need 5GHz for a thermostat, it’s the smallest packet of information being transferred!

[@daliborgrdic]

But i have only 5 Ghz router :(

[@markson352]

what's the difference between t5 and t6?
