Reviews:  

“Absolutely love my Pebble. I recommend it to ANYONE and EVERYONE. The Original smartwatch, I still believe in them!”

“The Pebble Time improves on everything that bothered me about my Moto 360 while retaining similar functionality. It doesn’t feel cumbersome on the wrist, the battery life is best in class and it does everything a smartwatch should do really, really, well.”

PROS:
– The overall size and curved back, coupled with the thick included rubber bands make for a very comfortable wearing experience.
– The battery life is absolutely fantastic, one full day of moderate use equated to roughly 90% battery life remaining for me.
– The controls are intuitive and the interface is very eye catching and pleasant to use. More so than Android Wear, in my opinion.
– The always on display is easy to see in direct sunlight and the backlight suffices for dim environments.
– The added water resistance is much appreciated as well.
– The vibration motor could probably wake someone out of a coma.
– There are a lot of customization options: quick launching apps using the up and down arrows, custom watch faces, custom replies, etc.
– Not being restricted to either iOS or Android ecosystems is a huge plus.

CONS: (You might not experience any of these)
– 1st unit I received had what appeared to be small specks of dust under the display. Replacement unit did not exhibit this issue.
– Some people claim the bezel around the screen scratches easily. Tested that claim on my first defective unit. The gorilla glass scratched before the surrounding stainless steel bezel did.
– Stopped receiving notifications in the middle of the day, only to have them come flooding in later that night. Appears to have been an isolated issue.
– Voice recognition can be a little hit or miss.
