Flipper One

“A bit steep price wise, but seems like it could be a fun tool.”

“I would be hard pressed to find a use for a device that doesnt have a keyboard”

“the intended use case is "whatever you can think and do"”

“Thats terrible marketing then. Trying to leverage an unrelated device because it was popular is almost guaranteed to spurn those expecting the next flipper to be an improved flipper”

“I like that they try to push for everything open source, let's see how that goes.”

“Compared to any piece of "proper" test and measurement equipment even if Flipper 1 is $1k it's a steal”

“why would someone help you build something that ends up being nowhere near a reasonable price point”

“I applaud their goal of opening up things in the ARM world”

“do you really need to discuss that in every sub-thread in this submission, can't that conversation happen where it happened before?”

“we see a AI DDOS'ing blog entry, 20 pages text, 35 with images, thats a mishmash of specs”

“I will say though: a lot of this has the feel of being LLM generated or "polished", which has the effect of making the brain kind of slide off of it.”

“Seems like a branding mistake to me. This new device doesn't target the same group of customers”

“The scope creep is insane. But in this case, I think I may be homer.”

“they need a disciplined PM type team member to bring them down to Earth”

“They design a completely new product and suddenly announce a collaboration?”

“the usability with no dedicated keyboard will be rather poor”

“This project is fun, though I can’t shake the feeling Lofree, Sharge and friends could do it better for < half the price.”

“Flipper One's hardware designs and constraints are very compelling”

“This is like a combination of a Sony Walkman meets Rasberry PI meets the prepper in me. Perfect.”

“The exciting thing about the system isn't the chip it's the connectivity, form factor and extra hardware around it.”

“The Flipper One is exciting in significant part because it offers a different, smaller form factor.”

“they're onto something with the idea of a PTT-like local LLM interface”

“It has a battery, with attention given to power management, and is a complete unit”

“it is a fun looking project and it is great that they are pushing for an open platform”

“it has more connectivity and I/O than the Zero, but also scaled down, while using better materials”

“This looks flippin' amazing, but also like the definition of project scope creep.”

“This is not a general purpose computer though. There is no keyboard and you would need to start adding stuff.”

“it could become a cool jumping-off point for a variety of builds”

“Voice commands may be a valuable feature. This thing has limited input: no keyboard, small non-touchscreen.”

“It looks like a completely different product, not an evolution of the Flipper Zero.”

“using a 6-bit low resolution grayscale display is a weird choice”

“Where else are you going to get that functionality combined as a single unit?”

“The Flipper One is AI capable and equipped with Ethernet”

“With these specs it would make a decent replacement for a low end general purpose computer.”

“Dual gigabit ethernet + even 6ghz wifi means this will likely work nicely as a travel router”

“Seems all the RF/radio stuff is gone :/ I'd want at least that and more.”

“looks like a children's toy, which makes it far more effective for demos”

“the Flipper One does well to stray from the half baked implementation in the zero”

“Swiss Army knives also serve a psychological purpose. And they do it well!”

“Why the AI voice assistant? What? Is this perhaps a prank? That doesn't line up with the ethos of the Flipper Zero”
