they were the most successful kickstarter project in history when the og pebble got funded so at least they had a cult following. they were fun to write watchfaces for.

wasn’t the selling point of the pebble kickstarter that they were using e-ink for the display, but the actual product used a regular black and white LCD and they just called it “e-paper”

i had a first gen pebble, it was loving great but it had a (apparently pretty common) screen issue where it'd get all glitchy and hosed and you'd need to like squeeze the device to make the bits inside connect together (or dismantle the whole fuckin thing and apply a more permanent fix) it was still fuckin great for what i used it for and i'd still be using a pebble of some kind if fitbit hadn't smothered the whole thing with a pillow in its sleep someone pls convince timb to allow custom watchfaces so i can have my glorious child DIN Time back

the pebble was all a "smart"watch should have been but it didn't sell ads or apps so it cannot exist in the terrible present

E-ink requires zero power to maintain state, E-Paper aka Memory LCDs require some power to stay on but it's on the order of 10 micro-watts. I remember that your battery life would be affected by which design you chose, because the amount of energy required to change what was on-screen was determined by how many vertical columns needed to be modified.

i got a fitbit for xmas and it sucks bad (much like my posts). it doesn't detect when i raise my wrist so i need to hit a button with my other hand to check the time which defeats the purpose of a watch in an age where everyone has a phone on them. syncing with your phone sucks rear end. there's like 4 different ways/modes and they're all bad. i cant stress how bad it is. loses sync constantly and you often have to manually sync it (mine hasn't synced since jul 1st). fitbit app sucks fibit doesn't surface weather information to watchfaces so people had to use yahoo weather and they changed their api so most of them don't even work anymore tracking mode interface sucks... like if you start tracking a workout you can no longer do anything else with it (like control audio or use a stopwatch) and there's barely any support for weightlifting. no smart alarm button shortcuts cant be changed. it's real bad
