  • Simple, understated design, Easy setup, Instantaneous notifications, Customizable watch faces, Syncs with Android or iOS
  • Greater iOS app compatibility than Android, Some bugs
  • The smart-looking Pebble smartwatch delivers on its promise of wireless notifications right on your wrist, and while there are still some bugs that need to be ironed out, if developers can get behind the platform, the potential is huge...

  • Multi-platform; lots of style options
  • Mono display; app support, $99
  • Despite the monochrome, non-touch display, the Pebble hits the most critical function of a smartwatch – making information on your phone more easily available. The Pebble looks good and, with a custom watch-face, would not even be noticed, as it looks lik...

  • Abstract:  The low resolution screen is great for preserving battery power, but it does also limit what the Pebble currently does in terms of applications. You can get apps that'll turn the Pebble's display into a camera remote, but framing is tough on a screen that...

  • The Pebble Watch is waterproof, runs a ton of apps, and works with both iOS and Android phones. A new app store improves the whole experience
  • A lack of touch screen and multitasking limits the capability of apps; scratch-prone polycarbonate design doesn't feel nearly as impressive as the Pebble Steel
  • With a major software update and new app store, the original Pebble gets a new lease on life -- a less stylish but arguably better value than the newer Steel....

  • Nice design, Tonnes of customisations, Weeklong battery life
  • Will be a little big for some wrists, Requires specific charger
  • We liked The best thing that can be said about the Pebble is that it doesn't make the mistaking of trying to be a phone on your wrist. It's much smarter than that. Instead, Pebble is an expert notification deliverer. It's also open to total customisation,...

  • Abstract:  This may not be a traditional accessory review but I thought that would be the best way to tackle this device on Ausdroid. It is not an Android device but it complements your existing Android phone, and that fits my definition of an Android accessory revi...

  • Neat concept; A watch you can change the look of whenever it suits; Easily controlled by both iOS and Android; Works really well as a wireless music controller; Flight mode (by switching Bluetooth off) means you can use your computerised watch during flig
  • Glue marks for the screen show up under different light sources and look like oil marks; Buggy; Buttons can be less responsive than you'd otherwise like;
  • Technically, the Pebble is a limited release first-generation product, so while this is a review, it's worth noting that you can't actually go online and buy this device. Rather, the makers of Pebble used the crowdsourcing website Kickstarter to allow ear...
