As an AC, it does good enough.
As a “smart” air-conditioner, it doesn’t. Although publicly advertised to support remote controlling via wi-fi, it just doesn’t work out of the box. It probably needs some additional hardware, however that isn’t obvious in the first place. The AC comes with no documentation about making it work with wi-fi, nor does its smart application that can be downloaded from the Play Store. The salesmen do not know either, and the Orient help line offers no solution either.
Although I may be able to make it work eventually, I want to shout out loud that my first experience with Orient’s customer support is a very disappointing one.

Dear Brother, I totally agree with you. I have bought the Orient Econotech but there is some hardware device is missing like “smart box”. I can’t connect my AC through router. Seriously I also very disappointed there is no instructions mention in manual.
Please do you have any solution please reply me.
I haven’t figured out yet. Maybe I’ll visit orient some day.
Same problem with me,in tv advertisement Ac connected with wifi but no smart box is given packed orient AC, really disappointed
Same here with me. I bought new model of smart orient ac but there is not even Ethernet LAN option to connect with. Orient is just making fool coz they didn’t mention anywhere that it needs smartbox which you have to buy separately

No out door lite shows on my indoor unit the shop keeper says there is no lite crom thr companay is it true plz help me sir c
Dear Orient Victims!
Good out of the worst is that device which doesn’t comes with the product is called “Smart Box”. It is available through Orient Call Centre & Orient Outlets against PKR 10,000 (Ten Thousand Pakistani Rupees)
Once you buy this , the Technical Support team will come, install & explain the usage & functions of the Smart Box.
In addition to this you’ll have to install an app for phone luckily free of charge.

10,000 Rs!!! Sad.
Thanks for sharing.
I want to buy Orient smart ac i just have 2 questions
1) Is the ac cooling better than Gree or Mitibushi ?
2) Does it really have a mitbushi compressor and saves upto 20% electricity
That’s pretty difficult to tell. It takes some 7amp on average while the compressor is on. But it’s difficult to extrapolate this observation to figure out it’s actual energy efficiency. I guess most airconditioners in the market have similar energy consumption and performace, and the invertor airconditioners are the only ones that stand out.
I want to buy a orient econotech!
Is anybody can share his exprnce with me
About
its coling
Enrgy consuming
Amp
Etc..
I can confirm that it is quite energy efficient. But as mentioned in the review… forget the smart features.
If energy efficency is a priority, please go for invertor acs…
Enrgy eficency is not the piority
You just told me about its colling
It cools pretty well. Really well.
Bought the 1 ton Orient Econotech today for Rs 35k. So far cooling is good, disappointed about the Smart feature as no manual in the box. Let’s see how it works out.
