Abstract: No gadget category has changed more in the last year than smartwatches. There's the Apple Watch, of course, a huge new market for the biggest tech company in the world to tackle. But the Apple Watch has fierce competition from nearly everybody you could t...
Affordably priced. Five-day battery life. Swim and shower-proof to 30 meters. Always-on display. Improved software makes glancing at quick notifications easier. Built-in microphone for quick text message responses. Works with Android or iOS
Baked-in fitness tracking is uneven, especially heart rate and workout tracking. Plastic design. Small black and white screen is sometimes hard to read. Pebble's apps and watch face options are often ugly
The Pebble 2 doesn't win on fitness tracking, but it's still a solid pick for simple notifications and messages on a long-battery budget smartwatch...
A neat watch from Pebble, but we expected more of an upgrade. If you're into notifications and some simple apps you'll enjoy this watch, and especially the price, but ultimately it feels like a very minor refresh of the first Pebble...

Notifications? Not a problem, It's got battery for days, Light and comfortable to strap on all day
Fitness tracking is as basic as it gets, Few first-party apps
“Oooh what's that? Is it an Apple Watch?” goes the question, aimed at me regularly by the non-techy friends and family members who've noticed the various Pebbles I've had on my wrist over the past two years. Cue explanation of the differences between the...
Easy to use, waterproof, amazing battery life longevity, works well on Android and iOS
Screen is only black and white ePaper, no GPS for location tracking, design is plasticky
For a £100 device, the Pebble 2 has a lot going for it. It's truly cross-platform so that you can use it with an Android phone or iPhone. It has amazing battery life and a user interface that's very simple to use and understand.The lack of a colour screen...
Remains inexpensive, Super comfortable strap, Decent notification mirroring, Waterproof to 30m
Pebble Health and fitness aspects are lacking, HRM accuracy is questionable, Shortage of must-have apps, Design isn't very stylish
The Pebble 2 remains a cheap and cheerful smartwatch that covers the basics, but the fitness tracking shouldn't be a draw.Watch: Apple Watch Series 2 reviewPlay VideoPlayMuteCurrent Time 0:00/Duration Time 0:00Loaded: 0%Progress: 0%Stream TypeLIVERemainin...
Monochrome display feels outdated, Bezel-heavy rectangle is off-putting, A few small software bugs
The Pebble 2 packs in a lot for its price, and there's plenty to love, but it's let down by design. If you're after an entry-level fitness tracker and don't care too much about how it looks, this is a solid choice; if it's a smartwatch you want, you may b...

Dass einige auf den ersten Blick an eine preiswerte Digitaluhr denken, sollte nicht darüber hinwegtäuschen, dass Pebble mit seiner neuen Smartwatch eine gute Kombination aus der Rückbesinnung auf die Formsprache der ersten Pebble-Uhr und neuer Technik sow...
