Pebble Round 2 makes rival smartwatches look chunky in new hands-on video

What happened

Lum says he understands his unit to be identical to those that will ship to customers, and he’s clearly a fan. One early tester is smitten, despite one frustration in particular.

The watch’s slim design and comfort impressed him, but the buttons were occasionally unresponsive on two units. Battery life has varied during his testing, with the latest figure coming in at around 10 days.

With the long-awaited wearable still yet to reach buyers, one beta tester has now shared his experiences after several months of use. The verdict is overwhelmingly positive, although he’s encountered one frustrating issue.
