Two New PebbleOS Watches This Year
Eric Migicovsky, on ericmigi.com:
We’re excited to announce two new smartwatches that run open source PebbleOS and are compatible with thousands of your beloved Pebble apps.
- Core 2 Duo has an ultra crisp black and white display, polycarbonate frame, costs $149 and starts shipping in July.
- Core Time 2 has a larger 64-colour display, metal frame, costs $225 and starts shipping in December.
Both are available in limited quantities, with worldwide shipping. Prices are in USD. Pre-ordering is the only way to get one - they will not be sold in stores. Pre-order today at store.rePebble.com!
I went with a Core 2 Due, in large part to support the project. The Core Time 2 sounds great, but I’m not crazy about the design — unlike the never released Pebble Time 2, which looked amazing imho.
Really hope this works out. We need more fun geeky fun projects like this one.
