Professional reviewers view the T100/4000D as a step backward, noting its reliance on a 2010-era sensor and a 2013 processor, a modest 9-point AF system, and the absence of a touchscreen or 4K video. While they commend its low price, lightweight body, and ease of use for novices, they recommend the slightly more advanced T7/2000D for anyone willing to spend a bit more.
Everyday users overwhelmingly praise the camera for its beginner-friendly interface, affordability, and portability, often highlighting the convenience of Wi-Fi sharing and the ability to capture family moments. Recurring complaints focus on the small, dim LCD, sluggish Live View autofocus, limited low-light performance, lack of Bluetooth, and the overall plastic feel of the build.
