Mine works well too software wise, pretty reliable. But hardware wise is where I have a few complaints on like the lightstrip adhesive is starting to come off on a few parts and with the corner brackets that I complain on in an earlier comment here.
Some other info I gathered: The new 4D V2 will start shipping by August 29 (a week from now) and there’s no 85-inch variant available right now, only 65-inch.
Other new info: 4D V2 is advertised to have improvements in White and Colour Accuracy & the New Trimmable ZigZag design first seen on the PC Screen Mirror Lightstrip that does away the need for corner brackets which for me I have a huge problem with since the corner brackets on my V1 always comes off from the adhesive tapes that was included with Nanoleaf and even with a heavy duty adhesive tape that I use to replace it with - they still keep coming off which infuriates me.
The better White and Colour accuracy is also welcome since I do notice the whites on the 4D lightstrip always looked off and appear greenish white appearance and hopefully they capture the Purple colour better.
Hey, would you be able to give some feedback when you have it, please? I would like to get something like it for my TV, that also works for the in-built TV apps, but hearing the 50/50 feedback from v1, I'm a bit hesitant without any end user reviews so far.
From what available info we have now, the Camera & Controller look to be the same as V1. The only notable difference I see in the tech spec comparing the 2 is the Lightstrip Cable that connects to the Controller is now shorter on V2 (0.5m) vs V1 (1m).
Huge disappointment it doesn’t have thread and Bluetooth. WiFi only onboarding is a pain and I feel like a thread radio with boarder router support could help sync performance.
Not really a huge upgrade considering the offerings from Govee and Hue. The current camera setup is really susceptible to reflections which doesn’t seem to be addressed in the v2 either. I guess we’ll know more once people start receiving them but I don’t plan to purchase.

Not particularly motivated to spend money on another one with how flaky the first was.
Is it a totally new controller with new wifi chip and preferably thread?
