Core 2 Duo? Is this a nod to Pebble’s retro aesthetic/appeal or just a coincidence in product naming?
They said in the announcement that the Duo means Do Over so it’s mostly the same as the OG 2 but with upgrades.
It is a smart watch. Why do you want to waste bleeding-edge processors on it when older designs do perfectly well? Certainly more sustainable.
He’s talking about the name of the new Pebble which was the name of Intel’s CPU from 2008.
The CPU is a single core Arm-M4 inside a nRF52840 SOC.
I want my smart watch to require liquid cooling and to constantly video everything around me and have a GPU running AI dedicated to monitoring everything so that it can use a 25W speaker to blast what types of individual animals are around me.

are these worth it? how’s the company trust wise
I was a developer for some apps for the first run of pebble watches between 2012-2016. It was one of the funnest devices to use. Very functional, long battery life and amazing community supporting it.
I don’t know what the original pebble was like but I’m very interested by these.
