First thing you should know is, yes this is compatible with the Canon EOS Rebel T4i 18.0 MP CMOS Digital Camera with 18-135mm EF-S IS STM Lens and probably with the Canon EOS Rebel T5i 18.0 MP CMOS Digital SLR with 18-135mm EF-S IS STM Lens as well since it literally the same camera. I was looking all over to find out if it was compatible, on Canon's website, in product reviews, in Google searches, but didn't find anything confirming absolutely that it's compatible--until after I bought it and found this information somewhere in the user manual. In any case, it works despite my model of camera not being listed in the product description.
Most of all, it's nice to finally be in front of the camera for group shots and such without having to press the shutter button and then rush to a reserved spot in the crowd. It was also extremely helpful in making a new headshot for use in online profiles such as Monster, LinkedIn, Indeed and the like. Before this I had to rely on the photography skils of others taking just a few shots which never came out as I wanted them to.
With the flip out screen of the Canon T4i I've been able to see myself in Live View, take multiple headshots myself, and then choose from the best of them. This wouldn't work nearly as well if I were simply using the timer setting.
There is even a switch on the back to change between immediate shutter and two second delay--so that you can hit the button and get the remote out of site for the photo.
It also works in Bulb Mode as well for shots such as Astrophotography and Fireworks, so you can enjoy the view and get the shots you really want to get without having to be tied to the camera. The remote works even at fifteen feet away or more.
Since it's an infrared transmitter, it does not work from behind the camera--because the sensor is on the front of the camera--but otherwise it works as well as a wired trigger.
Bottom Line: It's a wonderful tool to have, and the price is right. I recommend anyone with a compatible camera get one.

Be advised that if you are taking tripod pictures, especially in reasonably high light, this only works when it is just a bit forward of the camera pointing toward the camera. This is generally not a problem. Stand behind the camera like you would if you want to look through the viewfinder, but extend your hand with the remote forward so that your hand is forward of the focal plane of the camera, point the remote in the direction of the camera and click it.
I am going to add a cable release to my camera bag for those times that you really do want to stand completely behind the camera. At the price, though, this remote is well worth having in your bag. By the way, it comes with a small canvas case that easily attaches to the strap of your camera. I use this method to ensure that I have the remote with me when I need it. It is pretty small and easy to forget. If you have multiple camera bodies that you use, for the price, it is easy to justify purchasing multiple remotes so that each camera body hsa one.
And as a side note, a lot of people are asking if it will work with their camera, here is the official list (Seems like all new cameras are added to this list as well):
