I really wanted this product to work. After weeks of frustration I insisted on a refund and surprisingly got a refund minus shipping. I don’t know if they’re still doing that for backers though. Too bad it struggled to even moderately function.
Their product roadmap is nothing of the sort, and just leads to a pre-order page. Their blog has not been updated since 8/2017 but does have a testimonial from a person who is using the device that is available for pre-order.
Every so often an Amazon comment pops up about sLima. I'm amazed that people are still using this thing, and even more amazed that I'm still posting here.
They grifted us all using the Kickstarter ATM. Once the money ran dry, they will put on a new suit of clothes and find another set of suckers.
It would be nice to think that their reputations would be tarnished, but from a business perspective they made a ton of money using just marketing and vaporous promises.
@dim3m I'd say there's only a handful of people who even remember this exists. Kickstarter probably isn't going to do anything, let alone care - they go their money.
Is it possible to spam this comment board to 1,229,074 comments??? Or will kickstarter ban us for not being respectful and considerate to these scammers????
I see the sLima "V2" unit is no longer being offered on Amazon, save a few brave third-party tardlings that are attempting to sell them for $173-ish. The nasty comments continue to trickle in on both that and the original product page, most of which are "Just don't work."
The "waiting list" for sLima Ultron is still at 97%, where it seems to have been for as long as I can remember. Wonder if they will ever offer it from a seller that allows public commenting? (Answer: Not if they have a brain cell left.)
@Carlindo Lago - you can try and contact (s)Lima here - https://support.meetlima.com/requests/new - but since the thing doesn't work you must ask yourself: Do I really want this thing?
@DIVICO, I doubt Lima and crew read this comment board anymore. You're probably going to have to use other channels to get your turd or your money back.
Lol. I love coming back here to read others who are still as annoyed by this project as I am. It's one thing to fail and just realize you've failed. These people anger me because they act like they succeeded and are still scamming people literally daily. Makes me want to keep posting about their trash and do my best to make sure they never get employed in tech.
Worth hardware, software and support i ever saw - over year they could not stabilize it! Works very unstable: mobile app on iphone stuch when syncing photos and video, also mobile app using lot of space for cache or something; lima mapped disk (on windows) or partition (on mac) stuck during copying or accessing files; sometimes lima stuck and reboot needed to restore... lost of money and time. Very not recommended!
I backed two units and got them just fine. But they lied about compatability with Snow Leopard, which was my criteria for backing (and I have written proof of this). I have not tried any other OS, which by the reviews of others was just as well. I have however had great use of the included in ear headphones. So I consider the project dead and a purchase of said headphones. DO NOT BUY THESE PRODUCTS - or any other from this company.
@KC, I have 1000000000 nocoin I will invest in your project. Please send me your bank account number, routing number, SSN, driver's license photocopy, passport photocopy, mother's maiden name, full address, and pretty much any other identifying information you have, and I will have my Nigerian Prince friend send you the money.
Use this space to cheer the creator along, and talk to your fellow backers.
Have a question?

This is the most useful product I've bought in my life
BryanS on April 4
@KC Don't forget that sLima Ultron gives you 250GO for those thousands of pictures you take every week.

Seems legit!
Luis Perles on March 9
True, but not worth the money we paid.
Peter Ståhlberg on March 6
The irony is that the headphones included in my two Limas, has seen WAY more use. Also that is the only thing of substance from this whole project...
Luis Perles on March 5
My dear BryanS, there is a good news hidden in one of their sites. Check this up https://meetlima.com/feedback-center.php

Aaaaaaand the waiting list for Lima Ultron is still "almost full" at 97%, exactly where it's been since the beginning of time.
I get the distinct feeling that something's wrong with that progress bar...
KC (goatCGC) on January 11
"dev" is short for devolution
BryanS on December 27
@KC - well yeah, I mean, doesn't "dev" stand for "deviant?"
KC (goatCGC) on December 19
@Kane Lambert -Hahahahah! You said "dev team!"
Kane Lambert on November 26
What annoys me is the Dev team have removed Chromecast support. Literally the only fucking thing keeping this thing useful to some degree is now gone.
Hope these wankers get what's due, scammed everyone and delivered a piece of shit product. Awful people.
BryanS on November 14
I create many GO when I eat a bowl of beans, then. It stinks as much as this project does.
dim3m on November 2
Hey! Lima! You bunch of _______. Lol
KC (goatCGC) on October 10, 2017
GO's are an international unit of vapor. Lima adds *a lot* of vapor to the lives of its users.
BryanS on October 5, 2017
@Cameron Bee, don't forget that Jean, the person who's phone now has 256GO (?) also has a 1TA hard drive.
It's made-up units all around.

Wonder where they all are now. No doubt the money ran dry years ago, and Amazon sales don't seem to be enough to support their lifestyle.
Cameron Bee on September 20, 2017
I like on their blog it has a quote that says, “I love that my phone went from 64GO to 250 GO”
What’s a GO? Lol, I can’t even get that right
BryanS on August 31, 2017
@day - send them to the guy on the (youtube) hydraulic press channel. At least that will be entertaining, which will be of more value than sLima.
KC (goatCGC) on August 15, 2017
@day - BWHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA!!!

I have two limas if anyone is interested, let me know in comments and we can take this elsewhere :)

"It sucks"
The essence of Lima, distilled.
Cyril Lim on May 6, 2017
it sucks

Carlindo Lago on March 14, 2017
I never received the item. What I have to do?
Are Thunes Samsonsen on March 1, 2017
Ah, what a piece of shit this product was. I received mine, but it was utterly worthless, and I feel luck it didn't destroy any of my data.
Surong Thunyapadungchot on February 7, 2017
I'm one of fool guy that believes i will get this device. Since i pledge till now i get nothing.
Kane Lambert on February 1, 2017
Went to complain about their new hardware and repost my complaints thread and they've blocked me on Facebook! Terrible business

KC (goatCGC) on January 29, 2017
@BS - The statements are roughly equivalent in truth and value to be sure.
BryanS on January 29, 2017
@KC,
By that logic, every time I took a dump it would be "Innovative."
DIVICO on January 28, 2017
I never get my device. I want my money Back quickly.

@BS - No, you misunderstand. Lima is INNOVATIVE, and therefore you are wrong.
They are disrupting the full media player market.
BryanS on January 23, 2017
I have to love how the copy for Lima Ultra promises that "Your smartphone becomes a full media player"
My Smartphone has ALWAYS been a full media player...
