It has a nice small form factor, decent display, nice shell, and reasonable battery life. When I first bought it software support was somewhat sketchy, however most linux distributions and even OpenBSD now have support for it, so I'm hoping I can keep using it for a number of years. I have even managed to do some dayjob (software development) work with it. + +I also bought the [Pinephone](https://www.pine64.org/pinephone/) but I've had much less success with this due to software not having caught up yet, and it's mostly consigned to my laptop bag these days. I might use it as a home server with a nice display in future. + +Finally I bought the [Pinetime](https://www.pine64.org/pinetime/) smartwatch. I bought the dev kit in the full knowledge the software wasn't there yet, but at only something like £25 it was quite attractive as a hobby project. The [Infinitime](https://github.com/JF002/Infinitime) operating system (which the pinetime is sold with) is quite accessible for me, and I hope to make some contributions to it in future. It doesn't quite replace my old pebble for looks or software yet, but the company and community are making progress. + +I'm really keen to try the [Pinenote](https://www.pine64.org/pinenote/) in future, as I really prefer looking at reflective rather than traditional transmissive backlit displays when I can, and it looks like a really nice crossover between tablet, laptop and e-reader. |
