The Rabbit R1 gets its first OTA software update today, and it includes a fix for an important issue: a fast-draining battery.

Just a week after its initial launch, the Rabbit R1’s first software update is here — and not a moment too soon. Right on top of the list of improvements in the OTA update is “up to 5x” improved idle battery performance, addressing a major pain point for early R1 adopters. It’s also great news for me, specifically, because my R1 is constantly out of power. Today’s update consists of two parts: an OTA update pushed directly to R1 devices and a cloud update to Rabbit OS.

There’s also improved stability for the voice recorder, which is great news because I haven’t been able to get it to work at all. The update is available now for all R1 devices — to download it, R1 owners only need to connect the device to power and Wi-Fi. I plugged mine in, turned it on, and the update started downloading almost immediately. Impressions of the Rabbit R1 — both our own and those of other tech reviewers — have thus far been less than stellar.
