This is the smartwatch I own. True netrunners know that the tech we wear on (or under) our skin is a prime entry vector for ever hungry megacorps to bleed the pulsing data from our digital veins, so having a wearable I have full control over is of paramount importance. I can flash it with new firmware whenever I want, the multiple open source options available are all an open book to any hacker worth their cyberlinguistic salt, and I can know for a fact that it won’t phone home with my location or other data to any corporation behind the scenes. If we are all going to be cyborgs integrating technology onto and eventually into our bodies, better to control that tech ourselves!
I run a patched version of the Infinitime firmware that has some tweaks to optimise battery life, these will likely be in the main release soon enough. I did a test after installing the firmware and got 10 days battery life from 100% to dead of daily normal watch use. This is with a somewhat new (~2 months old) watch so don’t know how it may degrade but getting over a week is easily achievable on the pinetime.
