Always-on screen, Excellent sunlight readability, Industry-leading battery life, Big software improvements over first-gen Pebble, Timeline is a great way to navigate a smartwatch, Some decent apps and watch faces
Feels cheaply made despite its $199 USD / $249 CAD price, Lacks mainstream developer support compared to Apple and Google, Poor contrast when displaying colour, Low-resolution display, Buttons feel low-tech compared to touch and Digital Crown
Excellent battery life, Always-on color display, Voice-to-text functionality, Instantaneous notifications, Comfortable, Lots of apps, Syncs with Android or iOS
App store needs curation, Little reason to upgrade
The Pebble Time brings a color display and a microphone to the company's winning formula, making it a solid choice for first-time smartwatch buyers...
Sharp construction and a thin, comfortable design; always-on screen; voice-dictation support in apps; works with iPhone and Android; clever at-a-glance timeline feature
Shorter battery life than previous Pebble watches; not water resistant for swimming; expensive for what it offers; doesn't run all Pebble apps and watch faces
Pebble's newest round, thin watch takes the Pebble formula and shrinks it to a stylish design, but gives up battery life and some app support in the process...
Solid, all-steel construction; boosted battery life should last over a week; 30 meters water resistant; always-on display; works with iPhone and Android phones
Design doesn't look much different than the less-expensive non-steel Pebble Time; can't make phone calls; fitness tracking is less accurate than rival wearables
Pebble's step-up all-steel smartwatch has added battery life and a more durable feel, but it's basically a tiny upgrade to the less expensive Pebble Time...

It's the Pebble to buy, Works well as a watch, Great watch faces
Not as versatile as Android Wear or Watch, Big, big bezel and scratch-prone glass, Expensive
If you want a Pebble watch, the Time Steel is the one to buy. For $US100, you get a watch that fixes everything wrong with the Time, in a far more attractive package. If you can't stomach the extra cash, I'd seriously consider buying the original Pebble i...
Abstract: The Pebble Time is much less like a miniature smartphone than other smartwatches, and this is certainly not a bad thing.For starters, the Time does not have a touchscreen. It has a pair of buttons that let you select options and back out of menus, and ano...
"It's still a smartwatch that's simpler than most, and lasts just just about as long as any this this class, and loads longer than an Apple or Android watch."...
Abstract: Pebble's third smartwatch, the Pebble Time. Source: SuppliedThis might come as a surprise, but the best smartwatch for Android users wasn't developed by Google. For now, that honour goes to the Pebble Time, the latest from the company that pioneered the i...
Best look Pebble yet, Color epaper display, Extralong battery life, Works with iOS, Android
More expensive, Too much bezel, Limited colors so far, Longer wait time
Pebble Time Steel is the grown-up version of the new Kickstarter-backed smartwatch with stainless steel casing instead of plastic. It'll cost you more money and you'll have to wait, but that's the price of looking debonair....
