I liked the idea and when I had the gen 1 pebble it felt pretty neat. It lacked refinement (in both appearance / build quality and functionality though). I think we are putting it on a bit of a pedestal here though. I’d love to see a pairing back of something like the galaxy watch to a simpler, cleaner version with better battery life. I think smart watches are trying too hard to do too much right now and that’s something pebble understood from day 1.
I recently switched to a Garmin watch without GPS and can get about 2 weeks between charges. Does everything I want out of a smartwatch plus lots more.

I had a Garmin. Wasn’t crazy about how it did with messaging. Maybe better now though.
I like to have GPS and an RF payment option for running without a phone or wallet though.
