The unit has an internal battery, but the boosters can be swapped out to extend its life.

But even after you pay for the gear itself, youre not entirely done.

A single day costs $5, while every 30 days will incur a $50 fee.

Recognizing whether or not T-Mobile covers where you live is important.

In addition, to play music through the AI Pin, you need a Tidal account.

No other players are available, and Tidal is the sole music partner for those wanting an AI pin.

Currently, the Pin does not have any ability to set time-based reminders or even schedule timers or alarms.

It cant look up events on your calendar apps or offer directions.

You also should know what reviewers have said about the devices speed.

One reviewer noted that the gadget mistook a temple in Thailand for one in Cambodia.
