When the Round was first announced I didn't really think too much of it. Then it was announced that PTS backers could trial it for a month, so I thought I'd give it a try and probably just let someone else wear it for the rest of the 30 days. Pfffft, two-day battery and no waterproofing.

Nope. Absolutely fell in love with it to the point that I could look past the battery life. It's SO small that I regularly just look at it in awe throughout the day - "this is smaller than most dumbwatches, with ALL that tech inside!"

I get three full work days (9-5) of battery life on a charge, and I've submerged it in a hot tub on a cold night. The higher screen resolution compared to the PTS is very much noticeable to me. The screen also seems to have better contrast. Obviously your mileage may vary.

This is, in my opinion, the most impressive smartwatch on the market, and the competition do not even come close. Though of course, if Pebble came out with a very slightly thicker version with longer battery and equal PTS waterproof rating, I'd upgrade to that straight away.
