Hi.

For anyone that backed up current Pebble KS, what colour will you choose at the end of the campaign and why?

Thanks in advance

Hi there, i also backing pebble KS. Pledge for P2 for my wife and PT2 for myself.
This is my first time pledging in KS. So a bit excited.
Saw a lot of unhappy backer from UK regarding preorder price is cheaper or same with KS early price.
Just wonder is it the tax and price different affecting Malaysia too. Can someone who back the previous KS for pebble tell their experience here? Is the item have problem reaching Malaysia, do i need to pay any extra for custom or tax?

I just curious.
KS price for PT2 is USD169 for early bird (EB), USD179 for non-EB. USD15 for shipping
So KS price is USD 184 for EB and USD 194 for non-EB.
And using pebble official website it is now USD199 free shipping.
Sound like there is reason why those backer bising a bit. hmm.gif

From my previous KS PT, there is no tax in Malaysia. If M'sia custom did not change the regulation, it will have no tax at all.

Basically if you back KS, the only advantage is you will get earlier than pre-order and slightly cheaper. afterall Pebble will have discount during black Friday, Christmas and so on. Last time the shipping is only cost USD 10 but this time increase USD 5 so the saving from pre-order become not so much. I paid USD 179 but now paying USD 184. Now M'sia is getting more expensive coz the exchange rate. I remember last time PT exchange rate is 3.768. Now I expect it to be 4.15, additional 10% more  cry.gif

The exchange rate part what to do? Cant change the fact. vmad.gif
But since the PTS is USD249. So for me PT2 is USD184 is cheaper for me innocent.gif

Bepple company need to wait for official Pebble PT2 to out then they can fine tune the design. And yes, it is only estimation date, and possible to expedite

Haha. Just cheapskate review from me. After using it for two days.
Never own any Pebble watch or Apple Watch. So nothing to compare.
I love the screen, I thought black and white might not easy to view. But it not, it is easily view in any angle. Like the silicon strap too, smooth and won't feel sticky when sweating.
Notification is fast. The Pebble app is easy to set up too.
Although I found one thing very interesting, not sure it is something wrong during my first set up or it is really a bug in the Pebble app.
Initial set up I pair my watch and android phone e
Language: English,
Notification language: English + Chinese
I can't receive any notification from whatsapp and yahoo mail app.
Factory reset both watch and Pebble app in phone
Language: English
Notification language: English
Then all the notification work fine, includes whatsapp and yahoo mail. But watch can't show Chinese character.
Then I add on Chinese language in notification language without factory reset.
Now everything work fine.
So if your whatsapp have problem, maybe it is same as mine?

As for the drop in connection.
I setup in my android phone never drop Bluetooth and autoshut down Pebble app even idle or "do no disturb" activated. Now the Bluetooth drop is lesser as for today.
Overall I love this watch, but this is my wife watch.
Waiting for my time 2. 😛

If I know it turn out like this I should buy the two strap bundle in the last promotion. Why Pebble why? I like Pebble watch so much. I like Pebble 2 so much. Just can't see my time 2. Will there be Fitbit time 2? Lol

Don't cry, be proud.
Where u get your pebble then?
I feel I want to complete my hand on one of them too.
My Pebble 2 arrived in time, but that is for my wife. My time 2 didn't arrive. So I feel I will hunt for it in the wild.

Sorry to burst the bubble. Timeline is utilizing internet or server based API. Just worried if the server is turned off. We won't be able to get timeline notices which is the core of the current pebble OS.

I am totally dunno about programming. I think if they (developer) change the time line to response to our calendar in the phone. It will alert or alarm following the phone calendar, no? It will totally stop relying on server.
