Core Devices, the company that revitalised the Pebble brand, has unveiled the final design of the new Pebble Time 2 smartwatch and opened pre-orders. Fans will recognise the style - but in an updated form: angularity gives way to a sleeker stainless steel case. Earlier in March, the company shared rough images, and now we can see what the production version will be like.

Pebble Time 2 functionality:

  • 1.5-inch colour e-paper touchscreen (64 colours), 200x228 pixels, 202 DPI
  • RGB LED backlight
  • Microphone, speaker, compass
  • Heart rate monitor, step and sleep tracking
  • IPX8 waterproof
  • Screw-on back cover
  • Standard 22mm straps
  • 30 days battery life
  • Weight of the watch together with the strap - 48 g

Cost and pre-order

The Pebble Time 2 is available for pre-order for $225 with an expected delivery date of December 2025. An option is still available for ordering, allowing you to cancel at any time before shipping. The company also clarified: those who want to change their pre-order from the Pebble 2 Duo to the Time 2 will be able to do so automatically - no additional action is required. A survey will be sent to all pre-orderers in the coming month.

It's the return of a legend: a smartwatch that's attractive in design, simplicity and autonomy. Time will tell if they manage to become iconic again.
