PineTime is nice, wearing it right now.

What all can it do?

[–] slacktoid@lemmy.ml 21 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (2 children)

Notifications, media control, minor navigation aids, some heart rate stuff (they've linked some papers for their algorithm which I think is cool cause now we can discuss the validity of said algorithm for heart rate monitoring) and most importantly 1024 (the game)

And 1 week (approx) of battery life

I thought the game was 2048.

[–] slacktoid@lemmy.ml 7 points 4 months ago

oh my bad, yeah. its all the same game to me.

[–] rickyrigatoni@lemm.ee 7 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Nice. Guess I will get one after all.

I'm a PineTime-user too, but be advised, that there is no sleep tracking, and the heartrate measurement is not passive, nor does it work in the background.

But if you want a simple watch for notifications, weather, time, step count, and a handy flashlight, with up to three weeks uptime with one charge, the pinetime is for you!

Also, you might want to consider joining the PineTime-Community, bring some life there! <3

Similar to what most smartwatches can: measure heartbeat, show notifications and answer calls from your smartphone, flashlight (by showing white write screen), show weather, etc.

You can't actually take calls on the PT, you can use it to pick up your phone.

It's pretty barebones, but I like it for the price that it costs and the freedom it gives.
