The iFixit was very interesting. It has a freakin FPGA?? A comment said it was there to drive the e-ink display, while the MCU slept. Any confirmation on that?

This is sad because I was just about to get a Pebble (had tried beefier watches but felt battery life was too limited).

I had a Pebble 2 on my short list as a fitness tracker but went with something else. I liked that their devices didn't try to be too much. They were good at a few things and had a battery life I could live with.
- RobotCaleb 10y agoWhat did you go with? I have Pebble 2 HR on my Christmas list. I had taken it off when these rumors started, but I couldn't find anything I liked more. I'm interested in Google Fit integration as I'm using that to track my runs.
- secabeen 10y agoI'm pretty happy with the Garmin Vivosmart HR, but it doesn't have the Fit integration.
- slantyyz 10y agoI went with a Xiaomi Mi Band 2. My main desire was for sleep tracking and Google Fit integration. It was dirt cheap and it's comfortable to wear while sleeping. The Xiaomi app integrates with Google Fit. I also have the Xiaomi smart scale, so I have been able to push all my info into Google Fit fairly seamlessly.
