Have you owned an original Pebble, and if so can you comment on the vibration motor in the new Pebble compared to the old one?
I owned an original Pebble for a while, and the vibration motor was absolutely awful. It felt bad on the wrist, and it was very audible. In quiet meetings, people would hear it and it would make me look like an idiot with a childish toy. I stopped using the Pebble after a week or two for a number of reasons, but this was the main one.
- modeless 11y agoI do own an original Pebble, but haven't worn it for a long enough time that I don't remember how the vibration compares.

- driverdan 11y agoI have an original Pebble and love how powerful the vibration is. I never miss an alert and it wakes me up every time.
- BinaryIdiot 11y agoThis is my question as well; I do enjoy my original Pebble but end up turning notifications off half the times because it's WAY too audible so everyone near me hears each notification I get (and with work using Google Hangouts sometimes I get far, far too many notifications in quick succession). If the Pebble Time has a better, lighter vibration (or better yet adjustable; the original Pebble's vibration as an alarm clock is perfect but not at all for notifications). then I may be tempted to pick one up.
- wvenable 11y agoThe Pebble Time's vibration is much more subtle (but still strong). A big improvement over the original Pebble.
