How are they allowed to give it the exact same name as an Intel CPU line?
I've got a Core 2 Duo around here somewhere...

Honestly, makes me want it more. Are our brains broken?
I really wanted a Pebble when they first came out, and then REALLY wanted one when they were selling for next to nothing when FitBit bought the company.
I love a smart watch, but hate the daily charging. Im currently wearing a fossil hybrid which has an eink screen under the hands, and I love that it lasts 30 days on a charge, but wish it did more.
So I ordered a Core 2 Duo. I might still cancel the order before December, but no other watch does what I want, and this is the closest.
Man I might have to get one of these.....I don't mind my FitBit, but since being gobbled by Google, I don't need another data point for Google to feed off.
That price tag though. 👎
Did they add a heart rate monitor? I know the originals didn't have them. Otherwise Pebble was the perfect smartwatch.
Yes, on the more expensive version.
Ꝏꝏ love the white one . That watch faceeeeee 🤍🤍
My GearS3 finally kicked it, after 8 years, and my other watch is even older than that, so the more premium rePebble is actually quite appealing. If i decide to get an update, i'm still debating looking at something like the Garmin Vivoactive though
I have a Garmin Instinct and I can definitely recommend their hardware, but their mobile app to link for notifications and health stats is flaming hot garbage and never actually worked for me.
Garmin watches rock.
I kinda wanted a Pebble for a while, might as well get one now
I was really excited, but the price is steep compared to the Garmin watches. I currently own an instinct 2. That one gets me between 15 to 18 days of battery and that’s in winter time. In the summer it is longer due to the small solar panel in it. I guess I’ll wait for the reviews and take some nights of sleep on them
