" ... The battery life is outstanding, takes only a couple hours to charge. ... "
" ... I bought this watch after my original pebble started loosing battery life. ... The battery also lasts for a week which is a huge bonus. ... "
" ... It lasts for days on a single charge. ... It recharges in 30m. ... "
" ... The watch itself is nice and has some great features, but it is sucking-up my cell phone (Nexus 5) battery like crazy. ... A full charge used to last me all day ... "

" ... Excellent battery life. ... "
Device Compatibility
23smart watch, voice, text, smartwatch, texts
+100%
" ... That being said, I mainly wanted a budget friendly e ink smartwatch that would get notifications from my phone. ... "
" ... i love the ability to reply to my texts through the watch without having to take out my phone ... "
" ... it does everything I need it to including notifications for calls and email/texts with my android phone ... the ability to sync up with my google seamlessly is a relief. ... "
" ... Synced up well and works flawlessly. ... "
" ... Enter the pebble. ... I can view/clear all my notifications without taking out my phone. ... I can really command anything on my phone from my watch. ... I have no idea how this works with Apple phones. ... "
" ... There's no setup process, it automatically detects it on your phone. ... I didn't want to spend hundreds of dollars for a smartwatch just to get text and phone call notifications. ... "
" ... He needed to replace the smart watch he had so he wouldn't miss text messages or phone calls. ... "
" ... Nice smart watch ! ... "

+100%
" ... I almost want to buy another one just because the price is so good haha. ... "
" ... But for the modest price it is swell. ... "
" ... First is price. ... "
" ... for 70 bucks? ... "
" ... It is well worth the price. ... "
" ... even for a watch from a company that went bust, for the price you pay it's worth it ... "
" ... Worth every penny. ... "
" ... You can't beat the price. ... "
Display Clarity

+100%
" ... I never thought I would own a Lcd watch let alone a smart watch but this is great ... "
" ... I can stand in direct sunlight and still use my watch. ... "
" ... The "Eink" screen is a great use of technology. ... No other type of screen will ever compare. ... "
" ... And it has an "always on" display. ... "
" ... Reading my texts and replying is really easy and fast to do with this watch since the screen is always on, and I can see it clearly from any angles and lighting conditions. ... "
" ... Unlike most cheap smartwatches, the screen is always lit so you don't have to "wake the watch up" or push a button to see what time it is. ... "
" ... The bezel is compete black, but the screen, when reflecting bright light to your eyes, really looks more like blue. ... It looks just appropriate, goes well in harmony with the blueish color that reflects from the screen with bright lighting (in darker lighting it looks black though, just as the bezel). ... Pebble 2 has even slightly brighter screen than Classic, and slightly better viewing angles. ... Time had colors, and none of the colors, without screen backlight, were bright at indoor lighting, - plus, some of the colors were off, like red (which looked more like pink). ... "
" ... Wanted the better and bigger color lcd. ... "

" ... I own an android watch, a samsung galaxy s2 watch, and this one is probably my best everyday watch. ... "
" ... the included basic weather app is a nice extra. ... "
" ... The pebble health app works very well, and the microphone understands what I'm saying when I'm trying to send a text. ... "
" ... Enter the pebble. ... "
" ... I like how you can customize what you want to be notified by, via the pebble app. ... You can also go back and compare how active you've been throughout the week by looking at the misfit app. ... You can review your activity in more depth by going to the Pebble app on your phone. ... "
" ... The watchface that is shown also on the photo I uploaded is very easily found by searching the word "simple" in Pebble apps gallery, and has about 300+ likes. ... I'm not sure what was the case, but I know it was the Pebble app, because I was able to pair these watches with Gadgetbridge. ... When I tried to solve my problem as to get my new Pebble 2 watches to connect to my phone through Pebble's own app, I discovered that a lot of people who had similar issues and who ended up not finding a way to connecting their Pebble 2 watches to the phone thru Pebble's own app, were almost universally all having Android Lollipop, and bluetooth 4.0. ... "
" ... This is the best choice out there since it works with both iphone and android. ... "
" ... The android wear 2 watches, in my view, cannot compare. ... "

" ... it does everything I need it to including notifications for calls and email/texts with my android phone ... "
" ... He needed to replace the smart watch he had so he wouldn't miss text messages or phone calls. ... "
" ... The other reason I wanted this was for the microphone, which converts your voice to messages and allows you to send texts from your watch. ... "
" ... So, eventually I totally stopped using voice text and then I didn't have a reason to use a "smart" watch anymore. ... Yes it had it's limitations but it did what I wanted most and it did it REALLY well, and that is voice texting and reading texts. ... "
" ... Voice text works great! ... "
" ... My favorite feature is text notifications and the fact that I can text back using voice response. ... "
" ... I love the updated features (voice text for the win) and even just the ability to text from the watch is great (as an ios user, this is a new treat). ... "
" ... Essential for me, as a teacher, are the phone and text notifications-- I can glance at my watch to see who's calling or texting, without having to take out my phone. ... "
