PineTime Pro specifications:<\/p>\n SoC \u2013 Unnamed wireless MCU<\/p>\n CPU \u2013 Arm Cortex-M33 MCU @ up to 200 MHz Memory \u2013 8 MB PSRAM Heart rate sensor with blood oxygen measurement capability Misc<\/p>\n Digital crown that also acts as an extra button Power Supply \/ Debug<\/p>\n 4-pin connector for\u00a0 power and debugging (SWD)\/programming Dimensions \u2013 TBD<\/p>\n The PineTime Pro will benefit from both InfiniTime and WaspOS firmware available for the PineTime, as developers are already on it. It should be much easier to add new features with the extra SRAM, PSRAM, and flash. It could also eventually support PebbleOS<\/a>, although nobody seems to officially work on a port at this time.<\/p>\n Pine64 views the PineTime and PineTime Pro as two different product offerings, and both will continue to exist, although more resources may now be dedicated to the Pro model.<\/p>\n Besides the specifications, Pine64 developers didn\u2019t expand too much on the source of the microcontrollers, but it looks to be a custom chip for smartwatches, and the SDK will be open:<\/p>\n Things became much more concrete when PineStore started collaborating with a large smartwatch manufacturer in China that had developed its own chip. That collaboration has been very valuable so far: PineStore and the community have been working together on the hardware design, and documentation and SDK materials have been shared to help software development move forward. All of these resources will also be available to the community once the device enters production.<\/p>\n Some large watch manufacturers in China include Huawei, Xiaomi, Imoo, and Huami, but I was unable to find any watch with a dual-core Cortex-M33 MCU and 800 KB SRAM. A Huawei\/HiSilicon chip would complicate distribution outside of China, so it\u2019s unlikely to be used in the PineTime Pro, which narrows the list somewhat. In any case, we\u2019ll have to wait and see to get more details.<\/p>\n We have no information about the launch date either, as it\u2019s still early, with low-level drivers and demo code still being worked on. Hopefully, it will launch later this year.
