I feel this is a much better thought out product compared to the AI pin. In the full review can you compare this to Gemini assistant in Pixel devices?

The price alone makes this a much easier sell than the (in)Humane pin. It looks quite nice, too.

Looking good!

Can it be make into an App? With a native LLM-based assistant in a smartphone with more processing and connectivity capability, this could work as an app. I see potential for fully integrating into a more intuitive phone UI.

Did the software start as a smartwatch ROM? Is that why it never wants to use touch control?

The Rabbit R1 looks like hella fun to use

They forgot about the simple things.. simple damn volume controls 😅 a convenient way to control thr device.. things that have been already mastered.. they try to over complicate because they don't want to look like a phone.. look.. if a circle wheel works! Don't try to make it a square.. just use what works.

Not like this thing is any good, but what is he talking about with the rotating crown? It's called a scroll wheel - this thing is not a watch.

I think it's not until they manage to put this in a more interactive form factor such as in a robot pet or something resembling a "companion" will the tech take off in the market

You can tell it to get you an Uber to whatever location and it an set it up and for what time. There is a lot you can do with your phone... You can have the Alexa app buy things for you off Amazon and do other things. I can have Alexa tell me there is someone at my door if motion is spotted on my Cameras hooked up to Alexa. I can have Alexa alert me if my house is below a set temperature and she will turn the heat up if I set it up that way or she can ask if I would like to have the heat turned on. What I got from this is you have never used Google Assistant before or any app that can do everything this Rabbit R1 can do. The R1 literally still can't do everything by itself you have to do things still... My crappy Chinese phone can do everything the R1 can do and much, much, much more... So, wrong comparison. I mean it has a Laser Projector and a 15,500 mAh battery while still having different AI.
