Pebble Smart Watch for iPhone and Android (Black) (Wireless Phone Accessory)

Customer Review

Early on I had taken a look at the Pebble, in particular because it has a lot of "Watches character" and not give the impression of a tablet for the wrist.

It has so far complied with all requirements. Lauter beautiful watches layouts (about 100 different I've found). Good apps that transfer all notifications at the clock. Prima display, the E-Ink.
Important! During installation or pairing with your smartphone It handover problems, because I, as shown on the clock, only the PebbleApp installed and then pairing carried out, which resulted in incomplete Pairings and again led to separations.

Solution:
Only the Pebble pairing via Bluetooth menu of smartphones (Android and iOS-iPhone) and only after the Pairing the PebbleApp on the phone to install. Then happy at first incl immediate firmware update (This seems to be the problem of incomplete Pairings - Pebble want to perform an update immediately, but has no proper connection via Bluetooth)..

Buy recommendation or wait until the Stainless Pebble is available. Both have the same screen, only The latter a metal case and band. For but just expensive.

You are rewarded in each case with 5 days battery power. Let's see if I with battery conditioning (fully charge the first 3 x and empty completely, so "you easily brings out the maximum" the battery) also come to 7 days ...

One more thing: The Pebble comes with USB charger. The connection is proprietary to the clock. Unfortunately, no charger is, you have to use of other equipment or order the USB charger.

Additional after a few weeks use and update to new firmware 2.0.1 .:
Pebble has done a lot here. The Pebble software in the clock appears to be subjected at first glance no great change. Battery life, however, has again improved.
You can reach, depending on the selected layout watches "Watch Face" on 7-9 days duration:
In Settings screen backlight should be set to "Auto". The automatic movement with or button illumination is then sent only when the ambient light is too low. Thus, by automatic lighting when moving fast therefore in the day or in bright rooms simply to save energy.

Main power consumers are accordingly also the illumination and especially the display itself.
An E Ink display, like that of the Pebble, yes only consumes energy when the content changes.
So the battery life is dependent on a running seconds hand in selected Watchface or any other "mobile" element. The size does not matter.

So precisely can the battery life, depending on your selection, be 5-9 days.
In a Watchface that simulated an analog, mechanical clock, ie the second hand was moving about 4 times per second, the battery life dropped to 2 days. But looked very pretty and who is always at night always hang up his clock on the power supply, it does not matter ... ;-)

Anyone Connectivity makes about the battery life of its smart phones because of the Bluetooth Absorbed:
Does not matter. All opposing statements are doomsday predictions. In normal continuous operation, the communication of the smartphone with the Pebble respect. The battery consumption is totally irrelevant.
In an Android Phone can this easily check the menu setting, see "Battery". There the consumption of Bluetooth running under "also-ran ...".

So, all in all: Anyone who has a Pebble in operation, will no longer be separated from it.

The smartphone is now only fetches back out of his pocket, if need be. And releases as well all come to the clock display. Even the ringtone can be switched off via your phone. The Pebblem eight already noticeable. Call and the caller's name on the wrist ...

With Version 2.0 the app Pebble came on iPhone and Android with new features.
Watch Faces or apps such as Pebble bike and, and, and are now directly available and Watch Faces and apps are kept in the cache when the memory clocks with 8 layout is full.
