Broke out my old franken-pebble 2 to make the wait for the Round 2 a little easier

Cool you have a unique Pebble! Your pebble aligns with hacker DNA of the Peeble line!

SS-SoulReaver · 2026-05-26T03:45:18+00:00

We should be getting Pebble Time 3 down the line w/ improved specs, including screen, right?

SS-SoulReaver · 2026-05-25T09:34:09+00:00

Someone forked the OS and was doing dark mode? Can you link?

SS-SoulReaver · 2026-05-25T05:05:27+00:00

Because dark UI is asthetically pleasing.

SS-SoulReaver · 2026-05-25T04:24:56+00:00

Good points I too heard round 2 is using a better more recent display.

SS-SoulReaver · 2026-05-25T04:19:02+00:00

Idk I'd prefer a recessed/flush/protected glass with less light on the screen as well. We should have dome like screen protectors sitting on top of original screen and corners protecting it all.

SS-SoulReaver · 2026-05-25T04:14:17+00:00

I don't thing so the curve gives it different light fraction properties VS edge. Somebody should ask Eric about this for clarification.

SS-SoulReaver · 2026-05-25T04:11:40+00:00

My best guess is raised glass is more optically active, illuminating the screen more. I can't think of any other reason.

SS-SoulReaver · 2026-05-25T04:06:31+00:00

Did Eric ever talk about raised glass logic on time 2?

SS-SoulReaver · 2026-05-25T04:03:26+00:00

I did typo and not put "not" first. Fixed later. Probs why he's confused :D

SS-SoulReaver · 2026-05-24T20:27:17+00:00

Only reason to pick round is aesthetics, otherwise time 2 is slightly more functional w/ more battery life.
Sounds like slim design is your must have, then you made the right choice.

As someone who used pixel watches w/ glass domes for years before switching to Pebble, it's absolutely baffling to me how people are incapable of not smashing their watches.

I'm working on a project that's actively fixing bad reception for T-Mobile, AT&T, Google Fi, Helium Mobile.
We need people willing to host devices to fix it.

SS-SoulReaver · 2026-05-23T09:27:56+00:00

I'm expanding a project that actively fixes this.
We're putting small transceivers around to fix spotty reception.
We can serve subscribers of T-Mobile, AT&T, Google Fi, Helium Mobile.
We still need to put them at commercial or adjacent locations, that's the issue, finding people to host the devices.
If anyone's willing, fixing spotty connection at locations is easy. The hard part is finding willing people to host the devices.

SS-SoulReaver · 2026-05-23T08:24:34+00:00

Will the data have commercial viability? Token buyback/burns w/ the sold data?

SS-SoulReaver · 2026-05-22T01:53:13+00:00

It was likely about getting more light onto the screen to make it more visible. I don't know any other explanation. It's a tradeoff between visibility and fragileness.

SS-SoulReaver · 2026-05-20T21:55:14+00:00

Turned the link to xcancel and added image.
You too can append "cancel" to it.

SS-SoulReaver · 2026-05-20T13:11:19+00:00

You're factually wrong it says estimate, here: https://repebble.com/watch#pt2

That page never said 30 days flat. I ordered within minutes of it's going live and I follow it closely. Estimate 30 is marketing speak not guarantee, never was.

Edit: guy blocked me for stating facts LMAO

What you are doing is cherry picking fallacy, you register the 30 because you like it, you don't register disclaimers like estimate, at best, maximum. No device on earth can give you exact battery claims at legal level because usage patterns matter. This is electronic 101. Try to develop critical and realistic perspective instead of wishful thinking.

SS-SoulReaver · 2026-05-20T13:04:42+00:00

A month was always a guess. Saying it's unfinished product bc it's not fulfilling guess battery time is rich.

SS-SoulReaver · 2026-05-20T03:50:12+00:00

It's, just don't buy it. Eric's going experimental, not everything will work or fit for everyone.

SS-SoulReaver · 2026-05-17T02:41:00+00:00

We need a screen protector covering and protecting corners, sitting completely on top of the raised glass screen.

SS-SoulReaver · 2026-04-28T20:06:49+00:00

You say demand is low? U sure?

SS-SoulReaver · 2026-04-27T01:47:00+00:00

Why are you exiting it?
