    I used to have a Pebble too but I’ve long since given up on any hope of the market building something similar that looks as cool as the Pebble was. What exactly do you think is awful about Samsung’s Wear OS? I tried both the Pixel Watch and the Galaxy Watch and I greatly prefer Samsung’s.

      I rocked an OG Pebble as well as a Pebble Time for a while. The best replacement I could find was the Garmin Fenix watches, which use a similar display and offer comparable battery life (or better, for the bigger ones) but unlike the old Pebbles they cost major bucks. They’re considerably more featureful, though. All of them also have round displays, not the rectangular like the Pebbles.

      I’m quite happy with my Fenix 6 Solar and have no desire to ditch it, nor trade it in for any of the newer models.
