The new Pebble Watch is thinner and lighter than other competitors, and it can be idealized for smaller wrists. It has a shorter battery life, though, and it is not nearly as waterproof as its predecessors. Pebble Time Round is a very good looking device, but it’s had to sacrifice a handful of things for the sake of aesthetics that lessen the value of the device at an alarming rate.

The Pebble Time Round carries a sense of maturity that other watches of its kind and make lack, but it can’t go on swims and doesn’t have as many features as other smart watches on the market. It’s better fit for people who intend to use the smart watch as a watch and not for the sake of its technological features. Its elegance is not worth the short battery life, which will last two days at most, so it’s best to keep this watch for showing off and not for actual functionality.
