A new Pebble Watch is in development. The first details regarding its hardware have now been unveiled, hinting at a device that might be antithetical to current wearables.https://www.notebookcheck.net/Pebble-Watch-First-hardware-details-of-the-new-smartwatch-revealed.955748.0.html
If it has no touchscreen and no new sensors, what is the point of the new Pebble over the old ones? I have three old Pebbles and they still work fine.
Probably the "being able to buy one". I think it's a pretty desireable thing for products.
I'd gladly pay a bit more than they used to charge for a brand new one exactly as the Time used to be.
Bought two Pebble Steels when they were current, great for their time.
Now though I would have liked to see extra battery life, one week seems a bit weak compared to some other cheap watches. For example my TicWatch GTH gets more than that with colour touchscreen and additional sensors.
If this comes out and it hasn't evolved somehow, I don't see a place for it in the market.
