I've been really interested in the PineTime, for the price point it seems like a neat little gadget. I've never had a smartwatch and I'd want something cheap to see if I like it, and with the PineTime I know it's going to be less sketchy than anything else at that price point.

But everything I've read implies it's not really a polished product yet. I'm really curious where it's at and I'm perfectly fine with some garden variety FOSS jank but how much are we talking here?

Idk, I don't have one, so I don't know how janky it is. I have heard good things about InfiniTime though, so that's what I'd probably use. Maybe do some research about that and see if it interests you.
