Pebble Watch review
The Pebble watch began its life with a simple proposition: what if a little watch could pair with your phone and run apps right from your wrist? It took about a year, but the true dream of the Pebble has finally been realized: a new Pebble app store...
The Pebble Watch is waterproof, runs a ton of apps, and works with both iOS and Android phones. A new app store improves the whole experience.
A lack of touch screen and multitasking limits the capability of apps; scratch-prone polycarbonate design doesn't feel nearly as impressive as the Pebble Steel.
Thanks to plenty of apps and an affordable price, the original plastic Pebble remains a solid budget smartwatch pick.

Pebble Smartwatch review
It's kicked up a storm on Kickstarter, but does the Pebble make a splash or sink like a stone?

Pebble Smartwatch review
Kickstarter project proves wearable technology is the future
Handsome design, simple interface, great battery life
Display sometimes poor, far too much searching around the web for suitable apps
The Pebble Smartwatch is a great first attempt at a smartwatch, but despite all its 'indie' qualities we have to say that £107 is a steep asking price for such a basic device. It does look great, and with a few apps installed it is certainly very...

Pebble smartwatch review
Pebble is already an excellent value, but new features will increase the appeal.
Easy setup ; Stable performance ; Android / iOS compatibility ; Waterproof to 50 meters
Limited app selection at launch
We've really enjoyed our time with Pebble so far -- it's not a fashion statement, necessarily, but we wouldn't be surprised to see it pop up on many wrists in the weeks and months to come. Functionality is still quite limited at this point, and...

Pebble Smartwatch
The smart-looking Pebble smartwatch delivers on its promise of wireless notifications right on your wrist, and while there are still some bugs that need to be ironed out, if developers can get behind the platform, the potential is huge.
Simple, understated design. Easy setup. Instantaneous notifications. Customizable watch faces. Syncs with Android or iOS.
Greater iOS app compatibility than Android. Some bugs.
Conclusion As a category, the smartwatch is still in its infancy and despite its many improvements, the Pebble is still more for the avid geek than for the everyday consumer. The growing collection of third-party apps separates the Pebble from its...

Pebble Watch review: New apps and an app store transform the original Pebble, too
What's the difference between the Pebble Steel and the original Pebble? Under the hood, nothing at all.
The ; is waterproof, runs a ton of apps, and works with both iOS and Android phones. A new app store improves the whole experience.
A lack of touch screen and multitasking limits the capability of apps; scratch-prone polycarbonate design doesn't feel nearly as impressive as the Pebble Steel.
Thanks to plenty of apps and an affordable price, the original plastic Pebble remains a solid budget smartwatch pick.

Looks like a regular watch ; Works well with iPhone and Android ; Solid battery life
