Great potential, and a solid unit.

I bought this in November 2024 and according to other reviews, this has improved.
It is what I have expected from such a device. The on screen keyboard is fairly good, and it functions at this point are what you would expect.
It is not perfect, but its a great start. I think hardware wise this device is really good.

A real winner here is that the battery life on this device is phenomenal. 83% remaining after three days operating for about 8 hours continuously on each day!

Speed - not the fastest of devices on screen, but it is adequate and gets the job done.
Noted... this unit does have a colour screen, so potential for a GUI is definitely there.

GUI - I would really like to see in the future some sort of GUI become available for this device.
A fancy GUI as it is called like what is 'kind of' available for the Lilygo T-Deck devices at this time.

I do understand that RAK devices do not have quite the processing power of the ESP32, so doing a GUI is going to be challenging as it needs to be very lightweight.
Still, I believe it is very possible.

Overall - there are a few little issues that crop up as you would expect, but it this works.
These issues are to do with the firmware and latest app compatibility from what I imagine.

One issue I have noticed with firmware version 2.5.12.0 and latest android meshtastic app as of 29/11/24 is request position does not work when you are in direct range of another node.

Buy it - yes I am happy with the device.. Firmware updates will only improve things.

WisMesh TAP still needs work.

I think with some software development and bug fixes it will be a good product but at this point it has quite a few issues for me to recommend it. My guess is, in a few months it will A+.

Closed source, super buggy, and touchscreen is inoperable

The idea is solid and the fact that it’s standalone not needing a phone is why I bought it. I’m building out a fleet of devices and this absolutely won’t work. I can’t even write bug fixes for it because it’s closed source. Can’t use secret black boxes without knowing what’s going on behind the scenes. I jumped on the bandwagon to early, I may have gave a better review if I could actually use it or even write some code to resolve my issues. I’d rather get my money back honestly. Save your money until this product matures or just go with a t-deck. Mine are just a big, expensive paper weights now. Shame…

Hi Mike, thanks for your review. We sent a direct email reply first to you a few days ago to get more details. The software is open source and we are looking to understand what issues or bugs you are having. We do have a new firmware update out as of yesterday. If you are able to get in touch with our staff by replying to our email or giving us a call, we are happy to help further or help set up a return. Thank you!

Nice concept, rugged form factor, great battery life, UI needs work

I like this little unit a lot. It holds the promise of being a fully functional, self-contained Meshtastic terminal. In fact it is a usable Meshtastic terminal but the user interface is somewhat clunky & sluggish and I find myself gravitating back to my phone to operate it rather than use it as a standalone. If the developers continue enhancing the UI, this should turn out to be a great little standalone Meshtastic terminal unit that you could provide to a random friend or family member without having to install the phone app, etc.
