I went with the Amazfit Bip because it had a similar form factor and there were alternative firmwares for it, but after growing tired of fiddling with what is a hack-ish workaround, I decided to switch to the BangleJS2 when it came out. It’s not as polished as the Pebble Timeline UI, but it works well enough and it’s open-source.
I was thinking about the PineTime but what made me change my mind was the shipping cost. The thing cost $27, and they charge $30 of shipping where I live.
Damn straight! I miss pebble. :(
I keep buying used ones. The problem is they’re starting to get harder to find and the price it’s going up.
You and me, comrade.

Yeah I’m rolling with the GTS2 myself, I was thinking about the PineTime but I haven’t seen the new bangle! Might have to get one of those.

Yeesh lol. Also It looks like the software offering is better with the bangle than it is with the PineTime.
Love my Pebbles! Thank goodness for Rebble.
