While the Apple Watch is still in the pipeline waiting to be put on sale next April 10, other companies achieve impossible figures with their smart watches like the new Pebble Time. This is one of those watches that although aesthetically they are not fully worked-less frames and more screen would be appreciated- it has managed to reach users very well and this is for something.
Part of this success is governed by the fact that the new Pebble has a color screen, although it is true that it is not an LCD screen, it achieved the astronomical record number of $ 20.338.986 on the crowdfunding website Kickstarter. The display is colored electronic ink, which allows the watch to have autonomy far superior to the rest, another determining factor for users.
If we talk about design, we all think that nothing has to do with the Apple Watch or the LG Urbane, they could have already tried a little more in this regard, but regardless of this, the Pebble Time is still one of the few smartwatches that se can be used with iOS and Android, something that undoubtedly gives it another positive point.
If we look at the prices, this Pebble Time is one of the cheapest and this is undoubtedly the main reason why the sales of this watch are record on the crowdfunding website. Now it is time to wait for the 10th and see the reservations for the Apple Watch and then it will be possible to specify and talk about success or failure with the first wearable of the Cupertino guys.

As a concept it is the one I like the most, but the final result in the photos seems to me somewhat childish and above all, too much frame around the screen.
The design is regulín, yes, but it is a clock, and for me it is essential that the screen is always on. Other than that it's WR and the battery life. Yes, I know that to see mini photos is not ideal.
What Pebble got is nothing. 20 million and a little more than 70 thousand units sold only show that the Apple Watch hit it very hard. Everyone is surprised by the sales of the Pebble; they do not know how to interpret the facts. With those 20 million they will have to make all the expenses, so the net profit is very little. To give you an idea, in the first weekend, the Apple Watch is going to sell a million units, which Pebble has sold throughout its history.
