So I got my Pebble Smartwatch from a friend recently and have been playing with it for a day or two.
I already threw away the box it shipped in but it was in a nice clean box... Nothing exceptional. It came with a usb charging cable that magnetically attaches to the left side of the watch. It came with a slight charge, but it needed to fully charge another couple of hours.
Overall, the watch feels nice, its not too heavy or light.
One of the various watch faces that come preinstalled on the watch. There aren't many apps yet available for the Pebble on the ios platform but it seems the community is pretty excited about the watch. You can download an SDK to create your own stuff too!
On the iPhone, you have to download the Pebble app from the appstore and turn on your Bluetooth connection on your phone to pair them together. Instructions were pretty straightforward. Load the app, pair the watch, and you are good to go.
If you just got you watch, you might need to update it.
You can add new watchfaces via the app. If you want to download new faces, you just need to download it to your phone and the app will allow you to load it onto your watch.
Having the Pebble makes it much easier for me to weed out text messages and notifications that I was getting on my phone. Now I can keep my phone in my pocket while I get texts and email notifications on my watch.
I'm very excited to see what developers have in store for Pebble (or any smartwatches) users. Visit http://www.getpebble.com for more information.
