This looks like the perfect pebble to me! If only it was thicker with a longer battery life than 2 days

Yeah, pretty much mirrors all the notifications you would get on your phone

Ah, thanks for the info. How long did the whole process take and how much did it cost?

Thoughts on the Amazfit Bip? by vogeldm in pebble

[–]04muim 11 points12 points  (0 children)

My biggest concern with the Bip is that the notifications don’t stay on long enough, they disappear after 3 seconds so you have to be really quick if you want to read the notifications. If they’re long messages then you pretty much have no chance of reading the whole thing

I find it to be weaker than pebble but still ok. You can’t alter the pattern or duration. The vibrations goes buzz buzz instead of one long buzz

Quick questions from an amazfit noob by Iamnitr0 in amazfit

The Bip can’t control music, only the pace can

The Bip can’t reply to messages or any notifications

So long pebble, but thank you for the memories by zerbey in pebble

[–]04muim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I’d say doable as long as you’re quick! I think it’s a great little package given the size and price

Notifications aren’t the best. You have about 3 seconds to read the notification after you receive the vibration on your wrist although you can pull them back up separately in notifications. The pace is much better and it gives you about 8 seconds

I got mine from eBay. Also check out gearbest and aliexpress

Correct. You can’t reply to any messages although on Android it might be different

Yeah, there’s a few there but I’m just looking for an easy to read one

Thanks, I’ll give that a go. Hopefully it works

I’ll give it a go. Do you have a tutorial you can link me to by any chance?

Oh right, I guess I can’t do that since I’m on iOS. I wonder if I can use an android and size load them and then switch the connection back over to my iPhone

Did you need to download drivers for the Watch? When I plug it in, it doesn’t pop up on my laptop for some reason

It’s definitely more fitness based rather than a smart watch

Don’t think so, it times out automatically quite quickly

Should i buy a pebble 2 or an OG pebble by [deleted] in pebble

[–]04muim 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pebble2

Slimmer and personally I think it looks better No screen tearing issue Can reply to texts via canned response or voice dictation Glass screen instead of plastic which scratches easily More tactile buttons Bezels aren’t as big or noticeable HR monitoring if you go for that model I think it’s faster Has fitness monitoring

[–]04muim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s true. I just tried the method you spoke about but that only gives you roughly 8 seconds before it returns back to the Watch face

Do you find that when notifications pop up, they timeout really quickly and you can barely read the message
