  • Always-on display, Long battery life, Comfortable band, Attractive, simple UI
  • Most notifications are too skimpy, No way to reply to email from watch, Can't do much with microphone
  • An intuitive interface, an always-on color screen and long battery life make the Pebble Time a smartwatch worth your time...

  • 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...

  • Great battery life, Waterproof and well-suited for sports, Works with iOS and Android price
  • Not as fully polished as the Apple Watch or Android Wear, App ecosystem can be difficult to gauge, Not as unique as it was a year ago
  • At $199, the Pebble Time is a fantastic sports smartwatch for the buyer who prioritizes getting stuff done over having the flashiest-looking device on their wrist'...

  • Really great battery life. When it comes to smartwatches, less is definitely more. The timeline metaphor is simple and understandable. Smart straps are a smart idea
  • Turns out design does matter, Pebble. The Time's screen and hardware both leave a lot to be desired. The interface is cutesy at the expense of being useful. If you're an iPhone user, forget about it

  • Impressive battery life, Works on both Android and iOS, Always-on color e-paperdisplay, Display looks great under direct sunlight, Large app library, Unique Timeline interface reduces app clutter, Voice replies, Potential for more features via smartstraps
  • iOS functionality is limited, Voice function doesn't extend to Google Now or Siri, Can only choose one app for activity tracking, Pricey for what it offers
  • Pebble needs to distinguish itself from its Android Wear and Apple rivals in order to stand out, and it does so with the Time. Its color e-paper technology results in an always-on display that looks great under bright sunlight, plus battery life that las...
