Customer Ratings & Reviews

Got it at BB pre-Xmas sale for $120. At that price point, it is comparable to the little Casios I have worn all my life. I liked it so much, I bought 2 more for my brother and son. None of us had any of the serious problems that others have reported, we all like it. Which is good because the company that makes it is obviously overwhelmed by success, probably not helpful. So, good for geeks, including old boomers like me. You don't have to be a programmer, but better be comfortable with computers. It reminds me a lot of when PC's first came out. I find it so comfortable and nice looking that I wear it constantly now. It does not have an audible alarm, but the little vibrator on your wrist is extremely noticeable, never miss it (whereas sometimes I would not hear the alarm on my old watch while watching TV). Its very cool to be able to change watch faces at will. It only needs charging every 3rd day, no problem. As to being useful - USEFUL. Watch faces with the current temperature on them. Handy to glance at the watch before going out, to see what to wear. Alerting to calls - it is just much more civilized, when carrying packages at the mall, or talking to a friend, to just glance at the watch to see who is calling instead of pulling the iPhone out of my pocket. Reminders - again, nice to be able to glance instead of deploy phone. I haven't yet tried it with e.g. a location based grocery list, but that should be useful. It has "deep integration" with Runkeeper, useful to see your distance, time and pace as you jog (or walk). It supposedly integrates with Google Maps - I haven't tried it yet but could be useful for navigation walking around downtown etc. BAD - loses connection with phone inexplicably on many smart apps, needs kludgy finger work on phone to reestablish. It does not control the phone in any way (except Music, a little). It looses its memory if you switch between apps, so it is not useful for stopwatch or countdown functions. We are all eagerly awaiting the new firmware 2.0, which should address many of these issues, but as of this writing its not ready for prime time yet. Bottom line - its cool, useful in many real ways, a nice watch, and while we would all rather have the iWatch, that's not going to be here for a year and will cost 3x as much. At its current price point of $150, if you are an early adopter type you'll want it, if it goes lower on sale its a bargain. Otherwise, check in again after the 2.0 is out. PS The face is probably scratchable, if you buy a ZAGG watch face be aware BB matches prices, so check that out to save a few bucks.

This was a gift from the in-laws and while I love tech toys, I wasn't so sure if I would use this often. But, I've found enough uses to keep it on my wrist 80 percent of the time. The other 20 percent is when I'm working out or bike riding, then I use a Casio G-shock because it's sturdier. Besides functioning like a regular watch, I like the fact that when I get a call or message it will vibrate on the wrist and I can leave the phone in the backpack or on the desk to know who it is. If I have a bluetooth headset on I don't need to even touch the phone. There are lots of apps to choose from but I've found only a few that I find useful and are reliable; Smartwatch Pro, California CHP report, Maptastic, Smartwatch Plus and Big Time. I have a bunch of others but they are buggy and most of them require you having to take the phone out and make sure the app is connected. I understand this is a new technology and it'll get ironed out in further generations. The regular iPhone apps perform much better. For functionality, I like the ability to control my music, songs and volume with the phone (can use my nice headphones that have no controls), reading notices, messages and AP breaking news without having to fuss with the phone. The bluetooth range is limited, probably around 20 feet. If I don't have the phone in my pocket or right next to me, it's usually not connected and if you're using certain apps, you need to reconnect, PITA. The watch is waterproof, I've showered with it. Looks nice on the wrist and is fairly discreet,. In black, most people won't notice it and you won't notice it too until you need it. Buy a screen protector, the plastic is soft. For a new technology it's a nice product, but

I have had my Pebble since December 2014 & it's a great watch. The battery life last for a least a week and a half. The only complaint I have is sometimes the face screen gets a little fuzzy. Other than that it's worth every penny!

Good for the price. Great battery life. Every now and then need to reset the bluetooth connection to the phone (iPhone). Love being able to get notifications if nothing else.

For the price, this is a great watch! You are able to do a lot of things with the different apps. Good battery life. Easy to set up.....instructions are easy to follow.

I bought my son a Pebble Smart Watch Christmas 2014 and he has loved it. He uses it every day, the battery lasts a long time between charges and it syncs well and easy with his iPhone, email, etc. He loved it so much, he bought one as a birthday present for a friend. It is the best smart watch by far for the price. Completely satisfied!

Handles the important things like controlling your music and showing all notifications for messages.emails..calls..etc...works great just as a watch and for sports scores... At this price it's great

I got this for sleep tracking and running so i can control music, runkeeper etc. on my wrist. Its perfect for that with durable construction and water/sweat proof. Also i thought it was cool that theres an app for deaf/hard of hearing that uses the phone microphone and vibrates when theres a smoke alarm, sirens or the doorbell, etc. I thought that was really cool. The vibration motor is very strong, you won't miss it.

The Pebble works pretty much as advertised. The device is truly waterproof, surviving a full day at a waterpark (even as other "waterproof" devices failed) the apps are great and, even though my functionality is limited a bit because I'm on iOS, I'm a true convert and addict. My main gripes are that 1) The battery life isn't as advertised. The box says 5-7 days, i'm doing well to get 3. Still longer than my phone, but not quite up to promises. 2) I have to reconnect it semi-regularly by restarting the watch. Seems to lose its connection and, though I can see alerts, I lose ability to control music or use RunKeeper. Still, those are minor annoyances for a really good smartwatch, especially for $99.

great watch, does what was needed, notification. Pebble needs to step up the software and ability but overall great deal for price. Best buy is #1

Awsome smart watch that is not over priced! No extra phone plan charges, because it works on bluetooth. But that does mean you have to be within range of your cell phone. No microphone or speaker in this model, but it does have a music controller. And lots of apps! A lot of free apps, and watch faces! Battery does not quite last me 7 days, but I get lots of emails and texts, track my steps and sleep. I just charge it when I shower, but it is water resistant.

Works well with iPhone. You can keep your phone in your pocket at work and still keep in touch. I get 5 days battery life. Great free watch faces and apps. Do you need your BP and pulse monitored 24/7? Want to spend $400? Wait for the Iwatch. Want a great wrist communication device under $100? Buy this.

My wife brought me this watch . And I like what I can do with it and how long the battery lasts. The only thing I don't like, is the limited amount of apps it can hold.

Pebble seamlessly connects with Iphone. Some benefits below. - Your watch will send notification who is calling so don’t have to reach to your pocket to know that. - You can see email, message notification and can be read through phone. - It’s a waterproof. So it’s an added advantage.

I was looking for an entry level smart watch and the pebble seemed to be my best choice for price and functionality. It's pretty simple with customizable faces and apps that will help you throughout the day. I'd definitely recommended buying it especially if can catch it on sale.

Looks good. easy to set up. Needs better features. Bought it 4 my nephew because of only smart watch that works with iphone. Would like it more if display was colored.

I bought my Pebble 5 months ago, and haven't looked back. I have exhaustively compared it to the other Smart Watches on the market, and it is perfect for me. The Samsung equivalent is twice the price, and Sony is still in production. I get my txt messages, phone calls, and important emails on my Pebble, and don't have to take my phone out of my pocket and interrupt meetings etc. It has sped up my ability to filter between important and unimportant communications, and helped me to stay focused. Also, I can play/pause, rewind and fast forward my music and podcasts from my wrist. What a huge convenience while driving!

I've already heard great things about pebble smart watches until I got to experience it for myself. This watch is awesome. It's compatible with both Android and Iphone. It can display just about most if not all notifications from your phone which is really neat. I bought it as a Christmas gift for my brother and he can't stop wearing it.

I've used this watch with an android, blackberry, and iPhone. The iPhone was the easiest to set up, the blackberry was the most limiting. However, once set up, the watch was great to use at work! I would get notifications even when I stepped out of my office with my phone still there! I have changed the band twice (and recycle them) which is great because I will never get bored with the look!

Love this watch, it works grat with my iPhone 5 the only think is that it took long time to pair but order than tha it does everything as advertised.
