  • The Pebble Time is a good smartwatch, made all the more attractive by its price. It is probably the least you can spend on a fully-fledged (there's some cheap tat out there) smartwatch, costing as it does the same as some high-end activity trackers. If yo...

  • Needs more quality apps, Screen can be tricky to read, Lack of fitness features
  • The Time Steel is everything we've come to expect from Pebble - reliable, a bit geeky, easy to use - and more. It's the best-looking smartwatch Pebble has produced - some of the finish and strap combinations are honestly quite classy, and it's also the lo...

  • Is this the smartwatch that I recommend you rush out and buy right now?I think this is a good question to use to round off this review.But before we get to that, we need to address why you the user want a smartwatch? Do you want a notification tool that...

  • Although the OS and the watch's overall shape are different, the Pebble spirit remains unchanged on the Time. The color screen is a welcome addition, and the display is still as visible outdoors, trouncing the competition. Battery life is also better than...

  • We're really impressed with the Pebble Time, despite its humble spec sheet it's snappy, with great battery life and personalisation options. It's also well priced -- in the UK it's available for £179.99 from Firebox -- this makes it a more affordab...
