Rabbit R1 AI Blind Setup and Functions

Күн бұрынRabbit R1 AI Blind Setup and Functions
My R1 just arrived from EBay. I couldn’t wait for my batch 6 preorder.
Initial thoughts and reactions:
I was expecting cheap build, but It feels weighty and very well made. It’s less tamagotchi and more like a legit Pokédex.
I really wished there was a clear case available as the 3D printed one from Etsy is amateur quality, but I’m glad there is already screen protectors from Amazon.
The setup was easy and straightforward especially for the authentication for the LAM services. I connected my Spotify and DoorDash account through the rabbit hole website on my laptop. The rabbit hole connection setup appear to be a “virtualized” page of the Spotify or DoorDash website. I am not a tech person so I don’t know the actual technical jargon but it felt like I was logging in to my DoorDash account through a sharescreen on my zoom, hence why I describe it as “virtualized” page of the login page.
The LAM services were down or just didn’t work. I imagine it was because it was late at night and maybe the LAM services were under maintenance. I couldn’t get Spotify or DoorDash to work at all.
Bluetooth works well. My AirPods connected after several attempts but I think it was more the way the AirPods connect rather than the R1.
Both home WiFi and my phone’s hotspot works well. I have poor cell data signal at my condo and noticed delayed response if using hotspot. I’ll try again when I have 5G UW Verizon available in my area.
The Rabbit responses are not as good as Perplexity Pro. I really hope there is an update here in the future.
Vision worked well and has fast response, but it has trouble recognizing obscure K-pop Twice Lovelys sprites or Pokemon recognition from my wife’s switch gameplay.

thank you for sharing your whole setup.. It's long and when I saw the time I had to resist the temptation to run away but instead got a coffee and hunkered down. You are a master of the silent genre :)

Also their customer service was excellent. They quickly refunded me my preorder since I already bought one on eBay.

Got mine today .. left side of the brain said keep it, right side said send it back or put it up on Ebay ... that was very painful to watch ... but rather than send it back, I'm a fool and will share the pain ... it has to get better .... I'm still trying to activate my account .. as originally you were just sent a code to access the account settings .. now they're asking for a password to activate ... And with no change in the password settings, plus the forgot password email has yet to arrive ... I've got a very light paperweight ..

Uh, sorry you’re having trouble setting up the account. I edited out the account setup process as it did take some time to reset my account, etc. so far I’m liking the translation feature and note taking. I use the translation app pretty regularly for content that doesn’t have English subtitles available. The note taking is nice but I have to cut every 30 minutes to ensure it doesn’t lose it. I’ve done hour plus recording but it sometimes fails and I lose the entire hour recording and summary. They are continuing to add quality of life enhancements like volume control and voice commands for settings. I expect this device will continue to get smarter over time.

@@castle_media423 So my issue with the account (this is long winded) .. when I purchased .. I signed in directly with Google .... so come time of activation i goto the login screen, and there's no google login, just and email and pwd .... so I press forgot password and wait and wait and wait .. but no reset email is in my inbox.... Turns out I just needed to create a new account with my email (the same email mind you) and add a password .. I did sign in. I did activate, and get the latest firmware. .. I used it for less than a day, and gave it to my 10 year old son to explore ... Waited a long time for the device ... great marketing, great brand design .... but, after I saw a handful of negative reviews was a little deflated, but .... they're not wrong ..... I wanted to love it... just not ready for primetime ... and, I just use the Chat GPT app on the iphone, quicker response, more accurate, easier to navigate .. yeah .. love the format of the rabbit, iconic .. but there just maybe a landfill of ET games, that maybe joined by tens of thousands of rabbits ...

So far for me. The competitive edge this device has that my AI in my phone doesn’t do is Vision (at least until I get GPT 4o) and note taking with summary.

@castle_media423 Ай бұрын
It’s definitely limited. I still like it. It wasn’t too expensive and there are features it does better than my phone app. So far I really like the vision, voice command translator app, and audio recording with summary for personal meetings.

@@isrealme1 I watched it and see his channel is dedicated to this type of content. He reminds me of Thiojoe’s channel. I don’t think R1 is a scam. The product is rolled out early but I’m ok the wait and I already use the features that currently work. Namely the translator, recording with summary and push to talk AI inquiries. With the latter I probably use my perplexity pro more often. For now it’s a $200 toy and I am rooting for the company to make further improvements down the road.

Just realized that Spotify needs a paid account. I already have Amazon music and will wait for that to be supported.

So far there are marginal convenience features with a separate device from my phone. I really like the voice command translator. I cannot command Siri or Alexa to begin a translation session outside of manually opening the app. I also really like that I can get vision feature without paying extra for gpt 4o. It also does audio recording and sends it to me with summary. The meeting note taking isn’t at all available in my phone app or Siri.
