I own a Pebble Time Steel. It is wonderful. People really underestimate the impact battery life has. I get annoyed when I finally have to take it out to charge (about once a week). Heck, right now it's at 10% and I don't really care. It didn't even tell me yet when it's expected to run out. The screen may not be as gorgeous as a phone screen, but it is on all the time. It's also very developer friendly. Heck, you can even create watchfaces in Javascript. Before the acquisition, I would not trade it for the first generation Apple Watch. Maybe the second one, just maybe, if the community does not find a way to keep the current Pebble devices running.

Heck, right now it's at 10% and I don't really care. It didn't even tell me yet when it's expected to run out. And I don't know if it still has this feature, but the OS had something that when it was really close to dying it'd switch off all the bluetooth and smarter bits and display a basic watchface, so it'd keep working as a watch for a few more days. That was awesome. > It's also very developer friendly. Heck, you can even create watchfaces in Javascript. Something that really attracted me to pebble was just how easily I could make a simple app and get it loaded on my watch.
