Analysis of The New Pebble Time SmartWatch

The New Pebble Time SmartWatch

Pebble Time is the most successful project in the history of Kickstarter. Over 20 million dollars and has received 78,000 contributions. The First generation was also born with crowdfunding. Is the latest generation of Pebble Time still going to be excellent??

Design and finishing

Pebble Time mix different materials. The screen bezel is now stainless steel while the back is plastic matte. It has silicone belt, it is soft and flexible, similar to the first Pebble. The screen is protected by tempered glass, but as we know is not touch. To manage this smartwatch, Pebble use 4 buttons, three to handle through the menus.

Display

Pebble Time screen is relatively small. 1.25 inches with a resolution of 144 x 168 pixels. In comparison with the LG Watch R whose panel is 1.3 inches and a resolution of 320 x 320 pixels. Pebble resolution is much lower, but also talk about an ePaper screen with different technology, and contributes, in part, to a great battery life. The screen looks great under direct sunlight, better than any competitor, perfect for countries with many hours of sunshine. However falters just on the opposite side, the backlight is somewhat low when we are in the dark or at night, we would like to shine a little more.

Software

The Pebble is operated with the buttons but is set from your smartphone. Pebble notifications are his forte. While Apple Watch, Android Wear  force you to install applications on the SmartWatch. Pebble Time receive all virtually on the clock without installing apps.

– Tapping the top button, you can access to events or notifications for days. Tapping the bottom button will take you to future events.

– If you want to see more data on them all, to press the middle button you will find all the information.

As for other types of notifications, you can get everything through applications. From meteorology to your messages Tinder, or any other application. Always installing third-party apps through the smartphone, as with the previous two.

Battery

We arrived at the strength of Pebble, which leaves trembling any competitor. This SmartWatch promises a life of up to 7 days. WOW !!!.

We were testing the maximum for 4 days, and we came to 3.5. It is very likely that the length reaches six days when you give normal use. And remember, when it comes ePaper is always on the watch, you do not have to touch anything to look like other watches, is permanently there, we will, as clock lifetime.
