What I’m most looking forward to on a new Pebble:

  • Battery life. With the battery and cpu efficiency improvements in the last 10 years, if the features and other specs stay the same then battery life should be incredible. I think month-long battery is likely possible.
  • Improved voice recognition and AI features. Pebble had voice recognition but it sent everything to a server to process. Now they could run speech-to-text on the watch itself or on the connected phone.
  • More durable buttons. A known issue with the Pebble 2 is eventually the buttons turn to mush.

As of Monday, [all the Pebble firmware is available on GitHub](https://opensource.googleblog.com/2025/01/see-code-that-powered-pebble-smartwatches.html), and Migicovsky is starting a company to pick up where he left off. > > > > The company — which can’t be named Pebble because Google still owns that — doesn’t have a name yet. For now, Migicovsky is hosting a waitlist and news signup at a website called [RePebble](https://repebble.com/). Later this year, once the company has a name and access to all that Pebble software, the plan is to start shipping new wearables that look, feel, and work like the Pebbles of old.
