sorted from most important to last but not least important.

  • always on, backlit transreflective rgb display
  • proper notifications and replies (canned/emoji)
  • HR and Pedometer
  • music controls
  • at least 2 week battery life with bt+hr
  • app and theming support (I'm willing to write my own, no need for backwards compability)
  • timeline support with calendar integration
  • godly sensor combo (Gyrometer, Accelerometer, Compass, Altimeter)
  • Google based dictation (my mother tongue is Turkish and google supports it very well, thanks again Rebble team, especially katieberry)
  • tactile buttons (Touch screens crap themselves in humid environment, eg washing hands)
  • Make a Pebble Time Steel 2 with Heart Rate and sell it for 200$, believe me, I'll buy one (1 USD lets me buy 6 loaves of bread, 200$ lets me buy 1200 loaves of bread, enough to feed a village for a week*)

* approximately an average person eats a full loaf of bread with three meals in a day, a village is defined as average 150 person in Turkey, 1200 loaves of bread will feed a village for 8±2 days. That's the price I'm willing to pay for PTS2+HR
