The PineTime is great.

Posted on 2021-12-26

I got a PineTime for Christmas, and it is great.

The PineTime

The good things

• Cheap, very cheap (~$27).
• InfiniTime (the firmware/OS) seems very responsive (compared to the PinePhone).
• Many features I will likely almost never use.
• The display is better than expected.
• The companion "app" itd is awesome (as far as I have tried yet, others are not so great, see below)

The bad things

I will try to make this section as short as possible, as these are only minor things.

• InfiniTime needs some minor improvements:
• Boot off the watch or turn off Bluetooth
• Better notifications (e.g. deleting a notification)
• The companion apps often have a hard time to:
• Connect (GadgetBridge)
• Keep connection (GadgetBridge, Amazfish)
