Mini Review Notes towards the end. I know the regulars are tired of hearing it, but I'm not the one who's having the issues that other's keep posting about on the forums, twitter, facebook, youtube, etc.. This is a video from someone that came up with another potential issue I hadn't previously thought of. His reason is disclosed in the first 60 seconds of the video.I actually picked up my car today. I went into a convenience store on the way home. While I was standing in line to pay, I was looking out the window admiring the new car. I noticed that the head lights kept going on and off. Really didn't think much about it as I was more goo goo ga ga over how nice the car looked.After seeing this video, I then put two and two together, went out to the garage and tested the theory. The car was unlocking itself from about 20 feet away, obviously picking up the signal from my phone being in close proximity.With my Model S, the doors don't unlock until I'm within a couple of feet of the car. 20 feet, seems like way too far. If I can be behind a closed glass door in a store and the car is unlocking itself, that's not very comforting. Thieves that break into cars to steal things from those that forget to lock their cars as they run into a convenience store do their work very quickly. A friend of mine had his laptop stolen from the passenger seat and he wasn't out of the car more than 60 seconds. They don't waste any time.Having the car unlock itself while in a store, not very reassuring for security. I'm not always going to be looking out the window at the car.As the video poster stated, he now has to remember to turn off blue tooth every time he goes in the house. Certainly another inconvenience. But to now have to do it every time you get out of the car? What's the point of using your phone then if you have to manually turn blue tooth on and off every time?For all those that love to whine every time I post something, say what you need to to feel better about yourselves. I'm simply posting a fact that was brought to attention by someone else. LOL. But before you make your typical comments for me to laugh about, at least read the second to last paragraph first!!Sorry, just way too many issues with this as the sole method to unlock your car.While I'll admit that my concern about the door handles being awkward is not as big of an issue as when I first tried them on the display car at the auto show. They have quickly become second nature. As I said in a prior post, I'll reserve final judgement until having been able to use them more. It will still absolutely be an issue when my hands are full. You do have to free up a hand to open the door (can't just use a pinky as I do on most cars), but that appears to be the only time it will be a concern. For most, not a big deal at all. For me, since my hands are usually full, I'll personally note the issue more than 95% of people will. So I know I'm isolated on my wish to make them more user friendly.Phone as a key fob however, just keeps getting worse as new issues are discovered.1. Potential to forget phone in car, thus leaving your car exposed to being unlocked and potentially stolen as it's no different than leaving your keys in the car. People will forget. No way around it.2. Blue tooth connection issues (doesn't always work) - Posted by someone else. I haven't experienced it yet in my first day with the car.3. When it does work, senses phone from too far away as discussed above.4. Having to carry a big bulky phone versus a tiny key fob that weighs nothing and never has to be touched to operate your car.Option is, use the key card, which can have it's own issues. Need to just carry that with you as a backup at all times, in case the phone doesn't work. The issue I quickly discovered is, it would have been nice if they had a designated slot for the key card to place it in while being used to operate the car. The Tesla sales person told me to set it on the console behind the cup holders. I did that, got to my destination and it was gone. Slid down between the console and the seat and had to go digging for it.OK, next time, put it in the cup holder. Well, now I lose a cup holder. Next, Put it in the console itself. Now it's hidden and out of sight. Have to remember to dig it out of the console. Again, from just having a small key fob in my pocket that I don't give a second thought to all day before cleaning out my pockets when I go to bed to now having to always remember two things, manually use them each time you enter the car (key card or remembering to shut of blue tooth and turn it back on) is a big step backwards. User friendliness is still more important than being a cool new way to do things.It's honestly a great car, fun to drive. Complete Tesla experience, but, we need a better solution for this phone thing. Will work for some, but almost certainly is going to cause everyone some type of problem at some point. Maybe not every day or all the time. But more than once is too many in my opinion. Aside from this, while it's missing several features from the Model S that I'm used to and appreciate and it's not simply a smaller Model S as a BMW 3 series is to a BMW 5 series as I had hoped, it's also half the price, while a 3 series is only 15-20% cheaper than a 5 series, so naturally, for this big of a price reduction, there are going to be more sacrifices. I can accept all of them. They're not flaws with the car. Just items that aren't included in the twice as expensive Model S. If you want those features, then step up and pay the extra money for an S or X. When comparing what you get versus a Model S or X, for the price, it's actually a hell of a deal. But this lack of a key fob, as I stated in an earlier post months ago, is still a "serious" issue in my opinion, and apparently the opinion of several others who've taken the time to create videos, or post on facebook, twitter, forums, etc. These are just from those active in social media. Doesn't count for the probably more than 80% of people that don't post their opinions online.Possible solutions:1. As stated over and over, give those that want it, an option to buy a key fob (again, still betting the farm this is coming sooner rather than later). Those that don't want it, don't have to buy it.2. Probably the better longer term solution that will keep with Tesla's theme, change the card reader in the door pillar to a finger print reader. What could be better than that? Nothing ever to remember not to forget. Nothing to carry on you at all times. In reality, this car requires you carry both your phone AND key card. Finger print reader, you carry nothing!!! And it's advanced enough to be different from any other car maker and user friendly enough to be the easiest to use. No sacrifices, no inconveniences.OK, my last post on this subject. Promise. I've given it a fair chance in the real world and now said my final peace on the subject. I'm loving the finger print idea and if they implement something like that, it would be the greatest thing since sliced bread, at least in my own opinion. And something perfectly fit for Tesla's innovation to the future.I've wanted to LOVE this car since the day it was announced. Had many concerns along the way. All of them still accurate, but as noted above, some not as severe and several that are just personal preferences coming from a Model S. The car looks great in person, much better than photos. Drives great, more fun than a Model S actually. Door handles as noted, likely only an issue for a select few. Seats are very comfortable, prefer them over the seats in my S. Trunk size is larger than expected. Plenty of room. Ride is stiffer, but I actually like that. More sporty to drive than the S. Again, for what you get, the price is actually a bargain. And personally, I think I like the look of it better than the Model S now.Only other concern that I have personally is with the screen being the only option for most controls. It is definitely more inconvenient than the far more user friendly controls of a Model S, but again, paying half the price. Navigation directions all the way to the right of the screen is an issue. Definitely a distraction having to look all the way over there to see the next street name. Miss having the center gauge directions of the Model S to refer to when I don't hear the voice command. Again, half the price! But they should move the directions to the left side of the screen.Having to find everything on the center screen is absolutely more distracting. Distracting is generally not conducive with safety. Even a task as simple as opening the glove box is now more complex. Something everyone will have to be cautious about. Naturally, will adapt to it and get used to it, but simply pushing or pulling on a stalk behind the steering wheel or simply pressing a button on the steering wheel without having to look away from the road is certainly always going to be easier and less distracting than looking at the center screen. A couple more stalks and/or buttons on the steering wheel, or behind it, wouldn't take away from Tesla's minimalist design approach, yet would provide a more user friendly, less distracting experience. Is it a flaw? No. But could easily be much better.The Model S gets an "A Minus" in my own personal rating. The Model 3 gets a solid "B". Fix the key fob issue, add a couple user friendly stalks / buttons to the steering wheel and it jumps to a solid "A". These are every day things that would just simplify use of the car. For just my own personal preference, I like having the center gauges for additional info. Not ever going to happen on the Model 3, but if it did, this car would be as close to perfect as I could imagine any car being. Add Model S style door handles or Model X style auto open doors and it certainly would be an "A Plus". So overall, it's a pretty incredible car. My post length may sound like I hate the car, but, if you're paying attention, really there's only a three items I feel could use improvement. Otherwise, it really is an amazing car. If these few items are the sacrifice for paying half the price, then I guess it more than balances out. But, it could easily be damn near perfect with a couple minor revisions that likely wouldn't cost Tesla any more to produce the car.Regulars, have fun with this one! LOL. For the rest, I hope some of the information was informative. If you share any of the same concerns, let Tesla know. They do listen to their customers and will make changes if they see enough people have the same feelings about it.
