Perfect replacement for ProSeries
I highly recommend this thermostat as a replacement for the Honeywell ProSeries. Installation was a breeze, I popped off the old thermostat, popped on the new one, Downloaded the app, connected to WiFi, and done! Thankfully I had the required wires in place and didn’t need to rewire anything. The performance is amazing, we set up a schedule and haven’t made any adjustments since.

Much improved
Update — I changed my rating from 3 to 5 stars. With the latest updates it’s working really well. I’d still like to have more flexibility setting schedules and hope that’ll be included in a future update.The positives:- Very easy to install. All three connected to my router with none of the issues described in many other reviews.- No problem using them with both Siri/Apple Home and Alexa/Echo.- Intuitive user interface- The iPhone app is generally reliable and intuitive (but not entirely…)Negatives:- There is only one set of four time periods per day that cover both heating and cooling. Because of variable electricity rates where the rate change happens at different times by season, we use different times for heating and cooling settings. This thermostat does not support that. I’m hoping for a software upgrade that allows the addition of more time periods.- There are occasional dropouts of connectivity with WiFi. So far they’ve re-connected on their own reasonably quickly.- The server the iPhone app connects to is occasionally unavailable and the app fails. This happens more frequently than seems reasonable.- The iPhone app does not refresh very quickly and there seems to be no way to manually refresh (by pulling down and releasing for instance). It’s hard to tell it hasn’t refreshed because it seems to behave normally. The only way I’ve found to force it to refresh is to kill and restart the app.- Occasionally I make a change on the app and it seems to accept it, but then it reverses to the original setting. There is no indication that a commanded change has or has not been accepted by the device.

Great, I have also included some tips if you have problems.
It works good, especially for the price. It’s easy to read from a distance as far as the temp. It looks good on the wall.I’m pleased enough that I have ordered another to replaced my other thermostat.Hook up is a breeze but I had to resolve the C-Wire issue. I have an older system, had the C-Wire in the wall, but not connected. Had to have the HVAC guys out to connect it at the 2 units.Problems I had. Had trouble getting the app program to work. When setting up I used a custom label: Living Room and Kitchen. The App would not complete the install and no error.Fix was a simple name: LRoom. Setup was complete.Next problem was the Thermostat would constantly drop off the WiFi.The fix was changing my security settings in my wireless router. Security was set as WPA-PSK [TKIP] + WPA2-PSK [AES] changed it to WPA2-PSK [AES] problem is solved. I have no more technical issues.Took one star off because with Alexa, you can’t control the fan, and resume the program schedule. You can control the fan with Alexa if you use a 3rd party android app, IFTTT, but still not resume the program schedule.The Honeywell app will control everything.The thermostat keeps the temp constant, I would personally like an option to widen the the temp range a degree or two. Currently using heat, I have it set to 67 and the temp will not drop to 66 before it cycles. Mine seems to have a range of cycle less than a degree.

a lot of potential but UI/UX, backend device management needs work
UPDATE!!! So three days after I wrote this review this thermostat broke even further! The AC no longer kicks on. Well… it could by my AC your thinking… sure it could be except 1) the relay for kicking on the AC is no longer working (audible clicking when AC kicks on is no longer there) 2)Switched out to my ghetto old thermostat and nor problem… Don’t get this thing, definitely got some issues.Didn’t start off in the right foot with this item… received item, packaging was opened and a visible nick on the bezel of the thermostat. Prime is awesome where return/exchange was easy. Asked for an exchange and four days later another unit came in… also package showed signs of previously opened but thermostat was in mint condition as far as I can tell so kept it.-Setup(WiFi connect and Alexa integration). Set was med to difficult… iOS integration was a nice touch to try to simplify the WiFi network pairing process but it was a bit confusion. As part of the setup process user needs to put the thermostat into different pairing modes and the indicator is based on what was being displayed on thermostat… unfortunately WiFi direct connect/Airport display on thermostat is very similar so very easy to get these two modes mixed up resulting in multiple setup attempts until user realizes there is a difference.- Energy saving? So one of the advertised features is some short of smarts that will result in energy savings/usage… with my none scientific observation and data collection I would say that’s not true with the 2 weeks I had this device. Compared to my old/ghetto thermostat (very basic unit) T5 turns on and leaves AC on a lot longer than my ghetto unit use to do… to the extend that my spouse and is feeling cold in SoCal where it was 107 degrees outside.- Alexa integration – it was way easy… compared to getting T5 connected to WiFi. The nice thing is once integration had no issue with Alexa controlling T5. And a saving graces of ability for T5 to control temperature, having Alexa (voice control), saves me the time having to run to the thermostat every 30 mins.- Weird WiFi drop out problem: after 2 weeks of usage and woke up one morning to T5 being disconnected from WiFi (try to switch on via Alexa). Fiddled with WiFi settings/resetting/reconnecting for 2 hours and was not able to get T5 reconnected to WiFi. So returned my exchanged T5 and bought a third one.Got me a third T5 and initial setup was extremely difficult (unable to connect to WiFi/internet). took a few hours but figured out I needed to delete my previous T5 from some super obscure Honeywell website. Two weeks into my third T5, thermostat dropped/refused to connect to internet (critical for alexa control). Spend a couple of hours resetting/reconnecting WiFi and still unabled to reconnect. And this time around I couldn’t find that obscure Honeywell website to delete registered device under my account so I am giving up and will be returning my 3rd T5 and replace with Ecobee.- Weird note… i’ve gone through 3 T5 and the first 2 seems to be by Honeywell themselves and the 3rd one seems to be a unit produced by someone other than Honeywell but the box still primarily adverstised as a Honeywell product. This maybe explains if you look up where to login into your Honeywell account to manage your devices you find 3-4 other Honeywell websites but actually for other devices… this contributed to user’s troubleshooting experience…- Summary: I really liked T5. For the price you get all the fancy features and it looks great on the wall when compared to Ecobee/Nest, etc. Unfortunately the setup experience kinda sucked. And of course, network dropout (device reliability) super suck and is my main problem… some major fail there during development/quality control. If you are looking for a thermostat that looks great and with all the bell/whistle this is definitely it BUT this is for users that are not looking for/care much for the IOT connected portion… that means you don’t really care about Alex and App control. If you care for connected part of the features than skip this… you save money but your time and sanity will be trade off.

I like the modern look you can use the smart phone to adjust temperature if you want from anywhere with wifi

People complain about the setup but are usually technologically illiterate. Setup was fast and easy. Longevity wise it hadnât disconnect from the wifi by itself at all. The mobile app itself is a little buggy. If you were to change the temperature In app sometimes it changes back to what the schedule was set at by itself. Other than that, it works flawlessly with both wifi and Apple HomeKit.

Excelente producto, funciona muy bien e increÃble relación calidad-precio, tiene muchas funcionalidades como uso con Siri, que otros productos (incluso de la misma marca) no tienen. La instalación es super fácil, si ya tienes cableado con otro termostato hay que asegurarse que tenga el cable C.Yo instale el termostato desde la calefacción y solo necesite comprar cable eléctrico que tenÃa 6 cables de colores dentro. Muy muy fácil de instalar.La programación también es muy fácil. Si eres de México hay que poner en paÃs a EUA para que te permita configurarlo pero al terminar la configuración, cambiar el paÃs a México y ya te permite poner tu dirección para que veas la temperatura exterior.Excelente compra.

This product is rubbish. The wifi constantly disconnects making the device disappear from the app and from homekit. The worst problem is that the device will not accept wifi keys with special characters in it. Difficult to set up, unreliable networking. Keep clear of this guys!
