Too bad it requires Bluetooth classic or else we could port this to Pebble!

Here's my answer (as the founder of Pebble - both eras!) on this. We're a small company this time (standing on the shoulders of giants by using open source PebbleOS - thank you google!).
We are excited to make new devices, but wary about over-promising. We'd rather under-promise and over-deliver. So far, we have only received a few requests for warranty support for our first new watch (Pebble 2 Duo) and we have provided support for everyone who has asked.

Generally most sleep tracking products use actigraphy (measurements of your movement) to track sleep. Pebble partnered with researchers at Stanford back in the day to produce an algorithm for our operating system, which worked quite well and is now open source!
You can read the code and see how the sleep tracking algorithm works here - https://github.com/coredevices/PebbleOS/blob/main/src%2Ffw%2...

Unfortunately no - it basically had zero usage

It has a built in weather app and hundreds of watchfaces that show weather as well.

sharp, same display that's in Garmin MIP watches (like Forerunner 255) but tbh looks much better in Round 2!

No plans to offer more SKUs, sorry. Already have enough to manage.

still works fine with iOS, will work even better in EU next year when Apple is forced to comply with the DMA.

Still doing our water resistance testing on Round 2, but that is the target (30m water resistance)!

> Screws
Nope! No screws on this one.
> Is that a matter of adapting the watchfaces to the bigger screen?
Yes, exactly.
