Pebble, the founder of Eric Migicovsky, was one of the first independent smart watch projects that started in 2013 through Kickstarter. The sales process to Fitbit in 2016 resulted in the closure of the brand. Following this closing, a community of user bearing the name of Rebble continued to live pebble software. Migicovsky developed a similar device in 2024 by developing a similar device as Core Devices. However, the name “Pebble” could not be used legally at that time.
New devices, first Core 2 duo And Core Time 2 It was announced by its names. However, Migicovsky’nin Pebble brand re -re -receiving the name of the device names have officially became. This step is symbolic for users who have established a strong bond with the brand in the past. However, the re -use of the name Pebble in the field of software and hardware offers a significant convenience to developers. Migicovsky, in community -based projects now said that the name “Pebble” can be used freely.
The Ruh use of the Pebble brand was also announced to the community
New Pebble 2 duooffers a structure close to the classic pebble form. 1.26 -inch black and white E – Paper display stands out with physical keys and long battery life. The device includes hardware such as microphone, speaker, barometer, compass and accelerator. The battery life can go up to 30 days. Considering the current exchange rate (approximately 40.56 TL) of the watch, which is determined as 149 dollars, the price of approximately 6,000 TL corresponds to approximately 6,000 TL.
Another model Pebble Time 2 It comes with a larger screen and colorful E – Paper panel. The 1.5 -inch touch screen has a more advanced equipment with aluminum body and heart rhythm sensor. However, the touch support of Pebbleos is still limited; It only supports interactions on the home screen. The sale price of the device is 225 dollars and this corresponds to approximately 9,126 TL. Deliveries are expected to start in December 2025.
The production of new models will be limited. Core Devices is planning a production of only 10,000 units. Migicovsky said that this limited production was taken in line with the sustainability target. This shows that it is directed to the audience of loyal users rather than the spread of products to the masses. The pre -order process has already been initiated.
With the new devices, Pebbleos has been opened to access as an open source. In this way, developers can develop new applications, clock interfaces and system tools. The application store structure was arranged to cover both new watches and old pebble models. The Android and iOS compatible pebble application also undertakes device management and matching functions. The old applications through the Rebble community are still accessible.
In addition to all these, the revitalization of the Pebble brand reflects not only commercial but also a community -based approach. Migicovsky tells this project that he will not dedicate his life, but that he will continue with a limited time and energy ”. In spite of everything, open source support provided to developers can be decisive for the future of Pebble. This creates a new field of movement for both users and developers.
