Pebble has officially expanded its revived smartwatch lineup with the announcement of the Pebble Round 2, joining the previously unveiled Pebble 2 Duo and Pebble Time 2. The new smartwatch comes from Core Devices, the company founded by Pebble creator Eric Migicovsky, and is powered by the open-sourced Pebble OS released by Google.
The Pebble Round 2 features a 1.3-inch e-paper touchscreen with a 260 × 260 resolution and support for 64 colors. It is housed in a stainless steel frame and maintains Pebble’s trademark long battery endurance, rated at up to two weeks on a single charge. Despite its classic look, the watch remains slim at just 8.1mm thick.
Designed for everyday use rather than intense fitness tracking, the Pebble Round 2 includes basic health features such as step counting and sleep monitoring. It is compatible with both Android and iOS through the Pebble mobile app, allowing users to receive notifications, reply to messages, and use voice input via its dual microphones.
Additional features include four physical buttons, vibration alerts via a linear resonance actuator, an accelerometer, a magnetometer, and 30-meter water resistance. The smartwatch is available for pre-order in matte black, brushed silver, and polished rose gold finishes, priced at $199, with shipping expected to begin in May.
