The rebirth of Pebble is radically unambitious. Not every gadget needs an annual release cycle, a steady cadence of software launches, and a change-the-world mindset.

    Long live pebble, I do hope the new hardware and software is still like the old pebbles

      On one hand, yes, but on the other hand, I wouldn’t mind a refresher of the design and specs. Nothing crazy, but it’s been 10 years… surely the tech is better and cheaper now? Slightly better screen, better battery, better casing etc.

          Seriously, it was a more well rounded device than anything since. There’s no smartwatch right now that interests me.

    Been interested in the news of the Pebble coming back. I have been wearing a PineTime watch for ~3 years now and as its community driven, hearing about the Pebble has peaked my ears

    Technocorporate is “do or die, grow or die”… sanity is more like “my hammer still works on all brands of nails and doesn’t need the wifi password and an online account”.
