  • Full colour e-paper screen (albeit 64 colours to play with), up to seven days battery life, lightweight design, simple in operation, waterproof to 30 metres, works with both iOS and Android
  • Cannot filter notifications – it's all or nothing, microphone and voice functionality is underutilised, backlight is too dim, plasticky finish for the price
  • The Pebble Time is a highly versatile device that is the product of experience, one that gets the fundamental basics right. It's small and comfortable-to-wear footprint delivers unparalleled battery life, while a vast selection of watchfaces and app...

  • Impressive hardware specifications, Well priced, Great features, Simple and elegant menu system
  • No universal search
  • The Pebble Time won't help you make a fashion statement - yet it's the logical choice if no-nonsense smartwatch functionality is what you're after. The Apple Watch and current fleet of Android Wear offerings haven't yet convinced us that they're are an e...

  • Terrible iOS support, Childish design, No way to brighten screen, Confusing interface, Too expensive ($200) for what it offers
  • Pebble is the grandfather of the modern smartwatch, and it's starting to spout gray hairs. Long battery life, water resistance, and a display that you can read in the sunlight may be have been great selling points years ago, but Android Wear and the App...

  • The Pebble Time undoubtedly has its shortcomings: the screen is unspectacular, the design is functional, and there are more glitches than you'd expect from a polished end product. This isn't a smartwatch for those who want to be noticed for what they're w...

  • Abstract:  Pebble is the plucky upstart to Google and Apple's smartwatch behemoths, having carved itself a niche in the smarwatch market with the backing and subsequent release of the original Pebble in 2013. The Pebble Time is its third generation, following in the...

  • We're largely enamoured with the Pebble Time. The design is respectable, the key features work reliably, the app store is well stocked and the battery life is beyond compare with most smartwatches.A few software glitches leave it exasperatingly short of a...

  • Well. you can't unless you already did. Until the Kickstarter backers get their orders in, this smartwatch won't go back on sale. Second, I think it's worth waiting to see if the platform gets some software updates to address its deficiencies, and for a...

  • Unsurprisingly the Pebble Time Steel is the clear winner over the original Pebble Steel. The color display seals the deal, but it's also the refined design, the microphone, and--did we mention--the 10-day battery life of the Time that makes it such a supe...
