#Pebble is coming back!!
Google got talked into opening the OS source code and the original founder said he's going to build new hardware in the same spirit of the original. And this time, no investors. The focus will be in sustainability.

I still got my original Pebbles and they're still running. They're my favorite smartwatch. This news made me so happy, I really needed that.

I've been using the amazfit bip for years because my pebble watches all died, but the pebble was head and shoulders better in many ways. More conventional smart watches are actually terrible and non-starters. I'm not charging my watch every night, that's stupid.

@Polychrome Hell yeah! My Pebble Time Steel started acting up, so I just have it in storage now, but I still have the wrist-band on my Garmin... which I would trade for a more modern pebble in an instant!
