New Pebble Round

[p8712]

Nice

Battery life is close to that of the Apple Watch. At least it doesn't have that annoying black bar on the bottom like the Moto 360.

I'm intrigued. Looks great.

A lot of Moto 360 haters refer to that as the "flat tire".

It doesn't bother me a bit. It's rather think looking with it's flat (straight up-and-down) case, but all in all, not a bad looking watch.

I'm not feelin' the Round much. There are a few different versions, and the all-black one looks ok, but the others don't do anything for me.

I haven't seen the 360 in action so I don't know anything about it's menu navigation. The Pebble's flip-phone nav left me wanting.

There are a couple of other round smartwatches I like, one a mechanical/electronic hybrid.

I'm optimistic Apple will eventually do a round watch as well.

The moto360 looks fine to me.

I like my pebble's physical buttons, so I think I might find the pebble round a nice upgrade. My current Pebble is getting screen sickness - a disease of the black and white screen.

That's an easy fix with a screwdriver and a little foam.

I've done it myself, and ended up breaking a screw, grrr. I was going too fast. But it's not hard to do. You need much less foam than you think.

There's text instructions too. Just google pebble screen tearing fix.

Before you try fixing it yourself contact pebble's online support with a picture. They often send a free replacement watch.
