Rabbit R1 is Just an Android App
(www.androidauthority.com)
See, it turns out that the Rabbit R1 seems to run Android under the hood and the entire interface users interact with is powered by a single Android app. A tipster shared the Rabbit R1’s launcher APK with us, and with a bit of tinkering, we managed to install it on an Android phone, specifically a Pixel 6a.
Edit: Someone also got doom and Minecraft running on this thing
Currently, the Rabbit does 2 things for me that can't be an app on my phone.
It's not my phone. I value this enough to pay for it. I spend more time than I would like on my phone. I'm happy when I can use another single purpose device to help me stay focused.
The push to talk hardware button has been more pleasant for me to use than the ChatGPT shortcut on my Pixel phone.
In the end, the ChatGPT + Perplexity in a box fills a space in my life that I can't find anywhere else—given my criteria.
I understand your criteria is different and you value different things. That's ok. It just means this device isn't for you.
