Title: Smart watches
Post by: nicefish on February 03, 2017, 09:42:50 pm

I have a Pebble Time Round. Many smartwatches are large and bulky, but not the PTR!

Unfortunately, pebble the company died, so when my watch dies, that's the end of it.
I like the always-on screen and the ability to customize the watchface.

Do any of you own a smart watch? Do you like it?

There's an open source smartwatch OS, but unfortunately, all the watches it runs on are larger and don't have an always-on screen.

I have the Gear S2, I don't even know where it is and I never use it. It was free and I have no need for it.

Does this count as a smart watch? https://www.amazon.com/Seiko-Kinetic-SKA727-Black-Canvas/dp/B01BG05OPI

Is it really rude? It's just a simple observation !

I've had a Hauwei smartwatch for about a year. Pretty good and the battery lasts for about five days. Mostly just used as a fancy watch tho with the occasional dick tracey phone call on the wrist gimmick.

4/5

rez'ing a month old thread, i just recently purchased a Pebble Time Round for $50 at target, and i love the damn thing. I owned a Pebble Time for a while, the thing was pretty sweet, before that an OG Pebble but the screen had that tearing issue a lot of OG pebbles had, never bothered to try and fix it. Should probably take a look at it some time
