    The 30 day warranty seems to be default for them, all their products are only given 30 day warranty. Super shitty and like you mention illegal many places.

      Basically all their products are essentially dev kits. They are not meant for normal consumers. At least thwts how it has been for the phone, laptop, watch, etc.

        The PineTime works great as a regular device as well! I did do a little dev’ing to get the weather to show in a watchface that hadn’t been updated to include it yet, but other than that it’s a solid device imo.

          Sure, but they wouldnt exist without that. Making micro batches of specialized hardware is not profitable at all. Offering a real warranty would immediately bankrupt them. If they sold more than a few thousand devices per model then i would care, but meanwhile big manufacturers get away with so much worse.

      It makes total sense for Pine64, it’s worth looking into how the company operates before passing judgment.

      @ExcessShiv
      In europe there is a big difference between the manufacturers waranty that is up to the manufacturer to offer or not to offer as he likes and the legal waranty that is an obligation for the seller that he cannot escape.
      So in europe the customer always holds the reseller responsible and not the manufacturer.
