The complete package is far more valuable because of the software that drives it. More valuable than not needing to solder the wires is not needing to figure out how to make the IR blaster do useful work by editing code. Because if it was just the hardware, the moat discouraging a non-open source competitor wouldn't exist and there would be competition already. |

They are discouraging open source hardware therefore that's what makes the software more valuable?
I invite you to hit up ChatGPT or something and shit out a flipper app. It's fun, and straightforward and most people could pull it off with a bit of time and slogging through it.
I would LOVE to see your Gerber design that fits in a case that's around 100x40x25mm and only weighs 104 grams. OH. And because of the parts involved, I'd love to see it because you'd need VERY advanced soldering skills to put it together.
I'll write the OS/SDK. But it has to be the same size or smaller and have:
1. A screen
2. NFC
3. 125 kHz RFID
4. IR Blaster and Receiver
5. Bluetooth
6. USB controller that can be tons of things
7. HID Controllers for lots of things
8. Still lots of exposed GPIO pins for external stuff.
9. SD Card
Any single one of these requires a sub $1 microcontroller/arduino/ESP + soldering ability + 10 lines of boilerplate code.
Yeah. tell me again the hardware isn't anything special.
