Pebble Watch


I've mentioned about Pebble Watch in my previous post here. It's basically a Smart Watch that is compatible with iPhone and Android devices. Similar to the Bluetooth Wrist Watch, it connects to your smart device via Bluetooth.



The watch comes with a unique USB cable for charging. it actually has magnetic properties that sticks onto the side of the watch to charge. Unlike the watch from my previous post, it's battery can last up to 8 days per charge.



Various watch faces can be selected and swapped at a press of a button. My personal favourite is the one that shows time by spelling it out in letters. Looks cool and unique.


There is an app that is required to be downloaded from the Playstore/App Store and installed onto your smart device in order for the Pebble Watch features to work. With the app installed, you can download more watch faces online and install into your Pebble Watch. 


After the setup on the app is done and your phone is synced properly with the Pebble Watch, you're able to receive notifications on your watch whenever there is a phone call, message, or other notifications from apps like Facebook, Whatsapp, email etc.

Unlike cheap Bluetooth watches from China, Pebble Watch, although more expensive, is more stable and has better after sales support like firmware updates and a community forum where you can search for solutions to troubleshoot issues that you encounter, which is very important as Android and iPhone update their OS regularly and may cause incompatibility issues with Smart Watches over time.
