Yesterday afternoon, the Pebble company released an official announcement stating that today would launch new novelties of their devices, despite the fact that since the arrival of the models with LCD screens, their market share has been significantly reduced, although it will always have a gap among users who are not willing to charge the device every day, since as It is usually usual, the new models that the company has presented, assure us about 10 days of life without having to recharge it.
The company has presented two new models: Pebble 2 and Pebble Time 2, models that continue with the same design of the previous models but where the screen has improved, in addition to adding a heart rate sensor and a greater battery capacity to be able to stretch it up to 10 days, for the 7 to which we were accustomed in all the models that it had launched on the market.
The Pebble 2 offers us a screen in black and white with higher contrast which allows to visualize the content more easily than previous models. It also incorporates a heart rate sensor, microphone and sensor to measure physical activity and sleep, as well as being resistant up to 30 meters underwater.
For its part, the Pebble Time 2, has a color screen, type E-Paper with a size 53% larger than the previous model. It has, like the previous model, a heart rate sensor, microphone, sports activity and sleep quantifier and is also resistant up to 30 meters deep and the battery lasts up to 10 days, depending on how we use it. .
As usual, Pebble has launched a campaign on the Kickstarter platform where can we find the Pebble 2 for $ 99 with September availabilitywhile model Pebble Time 2 can be found for $ 169 and whose availability will be from November, both of this year.
But the news does not stop here, since the company has also launched two devices without a screen. The Pebble Core for Runners allow us to track all our physical activity at all times thanks to the clip included to hold clothes but also allows us to store music in its 4 GB of storage to go running without our smartphone listening to our favorite music. The Pebble Core for Runners syncs via bluetooth or Wi-Fi Runkeeper, Strava and Under Armor. Regarding the Pebble Core Hackers, it is a small device that includes a button that we can program to open the garage door, call Uber, locate our luggage or our pet at all times ... we can program it to do what we need.
