    I like the size and the design of the watch. I don't like that it does not have a camera or sound.

    I am a constantly breaking down trucks... So I'm not always able to keep looking at my cell phone. This watch allows you to lol and see who's calling or texting and determine the importance of stopping and responding.

    While it's not as integrated as the Apple Watch, I really like what this watch can do. Show text messages, show my calendar alerts and the weather... And the screen is always visible, something Apple watch doesn't do.

    I love being able to see all my messages and notifications for my Phone without having to pull it out of my pocket. It works great and they seem to be updating it regularly. I only wish I could mark the notification as read without having to pull my phone out but it is still worth having this.

    My first smartwatch and I really like it. The only thing that is a little annoying is that you can only have 8 apps loaded at one time. Otherwise great smartwatch.

    Still the best smart watch available

    The Pebble Steel is (as of Nov 2014) still the best Smart Watch available. Even though it's been developed as a platform agnostic piece of gear, it functions above expectations with iOS and integrates seamlessly. I was initially hesitant to purchase a "wearable", but after a couple months of use, I would have a hard time going without. It's perfect for professional settings where checking your phone every few minutes would be frowned upon. As a consultant who supports multiple clients on a daily basis, I'm constantly receiving emails and phone calls, and it's great to be able to glance at my wrist and know if I need to stop my current activity to support a priority request. The Pebble app isn't perfect, but still works great. It allows the user to manage the watch content from any iPhone/iPod touch, in addition to browsing through the regularly updated watch face and application catalogs. I highly recommend this to anyone interested in a high functioning low cost smart watch.

    Its very easy to use and I like the style of it. Its been a lot safer having this on my wrist when my OCD kicks in and I feel my phone vibrate in my pocket. Its nice to be able to keep my eyes on the road by raising my write to my eyes and not digging around searching my phone.

    Though it's not feature laden, it's a functional, convienient smart watch with plenty to offer. I wanted to wait for the apple watch, but with no guarantees of it being water proof, I went with the pebble

    Meets and exceeds my goal for this product. I just wish I had the time for their latest watch ... Which was released about 2 months later. IF it was available ... I know I would have purchased the new watch!

    Great placeholder while we wait for iWatch

    The watch looks and feels very nice and the interface is very easy to use, however, when I purchased it I was under the impression that I would be able to answer texts and emails at least in a short form on it, but now. All it is, is really a caller ID for your wrist. You can answer the phone from the watch but there is no microphone or speaker on the watch, so you still have to pickup your phone, or have a bluetooth headset attached for the answering function to be of any use to you. But nice price for a placeholder until iWatch gets here hopefully in October or sooner.

    I felt a little skeptical before buying a smart watch, but since I've had it I've been surprised how often I use it. Especially with a larger phone it's nice to be able to control music, read messages, and deal with notifications from your wrist or across the room.

    The Pebble Steel is a good basic smartwatch for those who cannot afford more expensive options. If you are looking for a wearable that provides basic info and notifications this watch is for you.

    As my first "smart watch" I did not want to be bogged down with something overly complex, or not functional. This product exceeded my expectations on both fronts. Great choice and I am very pleased.

    I purchased both the Pebble and the Pebble Steel. The recipients were impressed with the ease of use and quick setup. The Steel has a changable wrist band and it fit the larger wrist which is another wonderful feature! Within 15 minutes the watches were set up and they were calling, texting and emailing each other to see what it looks like when they get them. Overall i was happy with the purchases, just bummed i didnt get one for myself...

    It's ok, but as a working mom I don't get to keep it on because it is going to get banged up doing laundry,digging trees up, washing dogs, dishes or whatever may be going on that day. My husband bought it for me thinking I may answer my phone more if I could see who called,not the case unless you can answer your phone on your wrist. I don't have time to go stop and fiddle with it. Frustrating thing for me is that every time it dies I have to reset the time and date. I haven't had time to sit down and figure out how to add apps.

    Neat watch. Not easy to navigate & keep sync'ed to my Android/Samsung 6 Cell Phone. The staff @ Best Buy have been spectacular to work with to sync my Pebble to my Galaxy 6 phone.
