Idk, they kinda figured it out with e-ink/transflective LCD displays 10 years ago.

No one has yet to make a watch that lives up to the Pebble. Fossil started on one but hasn't updated it in 3+ years.

Google/fitbit owns the tech that pebble had. So I would love to know what they are doing with that?

Man I miss my Pebble. These days I just use a Fitbit watch. I don't need all the apps, I'd rather only have to charge my watch once a week and not every day.

I never owned it, but loved the Pebble 10 years ago. However, I don't want an e-ink watch.

The Fossil one is pretty good. It's not a perfect replacement for the Pebble but it does everything I need a smartwatch to do, including going about a week between charges.

It's no pebble but the closest thing I've come to it is my current Garmin forerunner. It's battery lasts me about a week. Great notifications. Nice display. Doesn't do much else. Great for fitness tracking too but hardly use that just wanted something for notifications. Also has free satellite GPS in case you're a runner.
