I've been looking for a watch to fulfil my three main needs, +without all the wacky account creation, data collection, and general annoyances sprinkled in for a while now, then I +found the Pebble Time.

But with all these watches coming out, +less and less of them can do what they were originally designed to do—show the time. Instead, they're packed with +features nobody will actually use that drain the life of the watch, +[barely get a day of battery life at times.](https://9to5google.com/2022/05/31/pixel-watch-battery-life/) + +The Pebble Time, when released, was advertised to have 7 days of battery life, +[and it performed as advertised!](https://www.theverge.com/2015/5/27/8661863/pebble-time-review-wearable-smartwatch) +But nearly nine years later, does it still hold up? I can only answer after a few days of use, so watch out for an +update! + +But how could Pebble do this? Through the smart optimisation of their PebbleOS and the use of an E-Ink display +(which I love) + +### Notifications + +This will make me sound old, but I hate having to pick up my phone constantly to check for notifications. It drives me +insane sometimes with the amount of stuff that tries to get my attention, even with most apps' notifications disabled. + +Being able to quickly check if I should care to pull out my phone from my pocket is really handy, and something I missed +when my Samsung Gear S2 Classic finally kicked the bucket. + +The Pebble Time does a great job at it, and I'd hope so since this was one of its main advertisement points. When do I +get a notification, it stays on my screen until I acknowledge it, which it can only do through the funky technology of +E-Ink. + +### Quick Controls + +Similarly, I don't want to have to take out my phone for some more simple things, like quickly changing the music I'm +listening to or toggling my desk lamp as I'm running for the train in the morning. Having access to +[Home Assistant](https://github.com/Willow-Systems/pebble-home-assistant) from my wrist is quite a lot more useful than +I thought at first. Though can be quite slow being written in JavaScript. + +With the Samsung Gear S2 Classic, I didn't have such controls, due to the bloated TizenOS hogging down the limited 512MB +of ram and slow Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 CPU, along with the already dropped support at the time when I bought it. + +## Annoyances + +While there is many things I can say about the watch and the interface, like its funny little animations, cool design +and physical buttons to navigate. I have _already_ experienced crashes when trying to reply to notifications and "you +are not connected to the internet" block when trying to set up the watch, +[which Rebble does cover how todo](https://help.rebble.io/setup-android/#7), but still, it took me 3 attempts. + +## What I miss from the Gear S2 + +While there isn't much here, I do want to point out just how useful the rotating crown of the Gear S2 was. It was a +really nice way of interacting with the operating system, similarly, I like the physical buttons on the Pebble Time. We +need less touchscreens in this world, not more! + +## Final notes + +I will probably post an update post for a more long-term review of the watch. I also want to try to write an app for the +Pebble, and I've been meaning to learn C, and with the extensive guides that are available for the watch, I think it's a +good time as ever to get into the land of low level! diff --git a/src/content/tags/impressions.md b/src/content/tags/impressions.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..793ae10 --- /dev/null +++ b/src/content/tags/impressions.md @@ -0,0 +1,3 @@ +--- +name: First Impressions +--- diff --git a/src/content/tags/pebble.md b/src/content/tags/pebble.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..f06f70c --- /dev/null +++ b/src/content/tags/pebble.md @@ -0,0 +1,3 @@ +--- +name: Pebble +--- diff --git a/src/content/tags/review.md b/src/content/tags/review.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..3361e8f --- /dev/null +++ b/src/content/tags/review.md @@ -0,0 +1,3 @@ +--- +name: Review +---
