The Pebble screen is hard to read in regular room light -- which, sadly, is the kind of light that most of us are in most of the time.
When Pebble went under I switched to a Samsung watch with an AMOLED screen and the difference in view-ability is stunning.
- Wowfunhappy 7y agoDid you have a Pebble Time or a Pebble Classic / Pebble 2? I agree with you with regard to the Pebble Time, but the Pebble 2's screen is fantastic. I can see the time even in an abnormally dim room, without the built-in light. (The trade-off, of course, is that the Pebble 2's screen is black and white, but I think that's fine on a watch).
- wvenable 7y agoI had a classic and a Time.
- Wowfunhappy 7y agoAnd you found the Classic hard to read in dim rooms? I’m just surprised. I’ve admittedly never owned a Classic (only a Time and P2), but I thought the Classic was supposed to be almost as good as a Pebble 2. And I find my P2 as easy to read as a normal watch.
- wvenable 7y agoThe classic's display was pretty far from the surface of the watch and that hampered the display. Though it was easier to read than the Time. I expect both the Steel and the P2 are much easier to read than the classic.
