6 Smartwatches Pitched Against Galaxy Gear

#4 Pebble

The Pebble is a smartwatch developed by Pebble Technology and released in 2013 that was funded by raising money via the crowd funding platform Kickstarter. The watch has a 1.26-inch 144 × 168 pixel black and white ultra low power "memory LCD" made by Sharp, described as "ePaper", with backlight, a vibrating motor, a magnetometer, ambient light sensors and a three-axis accelerometer. It will communicate with an Android or iOS device using Bluetooth 2.1 but includes support for Bluetooth 4.0 (Bluetooth Low Energy) for a later update when more phones support it. The Pebble was slated to ship with apps pre-installed, including a cycling app to measure speed, distance and pace through GPS, and a golf rangefinder app that supports more than 25,000 courses.
