I had experienced intermittent screen issues which didn't really bother me, until the entire screen went blank and the battery refused to hold a charge for more than an hour.

The screen will get really fuzzy and blurry to where you can't read anything

Also, the screen can be hard to read if you wear polarized sunglasses.

There are a bunch of different watch faces you can download as well, the vibration is very noticeable and the screen is pretty sharp (resolution wise)

Screen became streaky and hard to read after one week

So a week later got the cord and after full charge started using it and the screen stopped working

I deleted them and the strange screen errors went with them....

Screen lights up for 1.5-2 seconds by pressing a button or shaking your wrist

Screen did not work out of the box, goes black or distorts

Screen stays scrambled most of the time

The screen became scrambled and unreadable

The screen is easy to read

The screen is pretty nice, and faster to display new information than expected.

The screen is pretty nice, and faster to display new information than expected.

Now I received mine from my wife for Christmas and spent two days wearing it and noticed that the screen had some issues

There are many, many, many units that have turned up with a "display tearing" issue- layman's term for a scrambled screen

Then the screen started to mess up

Don't go for the expensive models with the nicer screens which gives terrible batter life only to give you features that aren't very useful

I bought a third Pebble, thinking they must have improved quality by then, but after about four months, I had the same problem with the pixels getting scrambled, leaving the screen unreadable

From 1 week ago does not refresh the screen well

Finally, the screen started to break and now i have lines on my screen, They made me watch, unusable

Overall I don't mind it, however there is a known issue with some of these and "screen tear"

But just 3 months after using it the screen started to glitch when he received notifications, and it was getting worse

Mine scrambles the screen every time I get a message

The screen gets distorted

Great features, simple to use, but screen gets distorted after a few months of use.

Got this for my husband, it worked for awhile, but suddenly the screen started to mess up and he was unable to read it

You have to constantly change the screen to refresh it to make it able to be read

Also, the screen became defective after about a month - pebble was very quick replacing it but along with the lap sensing problems, it didn't give me a lot of faith in the product

Seller has no return policy and my watch has a defective screen

It still works and receives notifications, but the screen just seems to be broken

PROS: outstanding battery life, vibrating notifications, simple functional button interface, low weight, comfortable watchband, adequately readable e-paper screen, improves your phone battery life (you're not running the phone's energy-consuming screen as often)CONS: large size, kinda low-res screen, some minor functionality improvements should really be added via firmware update, app market is fairly useless, shortest backlight timer you have ever seen, screen protectors have a hard time wrapping over those 4 little end tabs

The watch immediately went into a screen labeled "Recovery Mode: Pair with Phone".

while not having the most pixels, this black and white screen is still excellent

Although it lack the colourful screen of some smartwatches, it integration with iOS is fantastic.

Scrambled (unreadable) screen sometimes, especially at first.

Not to mention the amazingly clear screen.

Good product, but a couple issues to be aware of:The display has "screen tearing issues" These are discussed in the support forums, but without a resolution other than "Uhhh, try the new one we made!"

Screen Cracked in the heat while on my wrist

The screen would get dark lines all over it but would correct if I scrolled

Only issue is that screen will at random will look scrambled to the point thay it is unreadable

I didn't put a screen protector on it and the screen looks still like new after months

I purchased the 40.00 china watch off amazon and it would pair and the screen was to hard to manage things

The screen sometimes freezes up, especially if he has the watch sitting on the table and he gets a message and it vibrates, it freezes every time, but if he is wearing it no problems, kinda weird.

I did put on a screen protector (cut from a phone screen protector) to protect the screen; I'd recommend others try this or buy one made to fit, just to minimize potential damage to the screen

The screen went bad with lines like a long bar-code

While I'll still get notifications, the screen increasingly becomes more difficult to read

But the screen sometimes freezes or gets stuck transitioning between pages

White and black screen is easy to see .I really want to give some love, but apps are a bit lacking

Additionally, when the Pebble was offered on Kickstarter, the manufacturers bragged that it would have a great e-paper screen, using the technology seen on Amazon’s Kindle and other e-readers

The screen is perfect for outdoor and highly lit up areas.

It frequently scrambles the screen so it cannot be read

The screen consistently messed up and syncing with our iPhones were a bit of a pain.

I wore it while putting up insulation in my attic and the fiberglass filaments scratched the screen

I was a little worried about getting this cause of several bad reviews with screen acting crazy, but I have to be

Screen is difficult to read with black and white as your only color options.

Also, never been wet or banged but the screen is all statically looking, unable to read it until I press one of the buttons which takes me to a function when all I wanted was to know the time.

I've had the watch for about 9 months and recently the screen has started to fail

I don't need the fancy and expensive watches, or colorful battery draining screens

, that's because I broke the 1st ones screen

It is only a black and white screen and although it isn't quite as bad as Mario Brothers pixilation, it certainly isn't anywhere near as clear as your phone screen is

I bought one two years ago and right away the screen went bad.

However when the screen is working, it's a nice little smartwatch that has me hooked on smartwatches

Good product but had screen tearing problem

This watch has what I like to call a "scratch-attractant screen" in that it gets scratched so ridiculously easily that, after only two days, it's already scratched intensely, and that's with light handling!Other than the terrible glass screen, it's perfect

Screen glitches.

The screen is pretty strong too

then the screen started to dim and I constantly had to restart it

In the meantime, I'll just keep dealing with the unreliable connections and screen weirdness

The screen is difficult to read and a few of the apps I bought the watch for did not work

The screen kept scrambling.

The screen started to mess up about two month ago

First, the screen frequently became distorted, with horizontal lines running across it, making it difficult or impossible to read

My first watch failed by showing a scrambled screen so it was easy to send them a jpg with the picture in order to get the RMA

The watch is excellent for what it does, but the screen hardware issue (the infamous "screen tearing") makes it frustrating to use.

I had experienced intermittent screen issues which didn't really bother me, until the entire screen went blank and the battery refused to hold a charge for more than an hour.

But I haven't even had it for a month and the screen quit working

Only complaint I have is everyone's in a while the screen is all scrambled but with one click of the back button it's back to normal rate watch would definitely recommend exceeds expectations work at an ice factory puts up with extreme cold heat and moisture

The screen became distorted and unable to be seen

The third one had the SAME problem as the others: screen gradually becomes distorted over the course of 2-3 months

The screen kept messing up and became unreadable half the time

The screen is garbage and won't display anything correctly.

The first was a screen glitch issue and it was replaced immediately

Unfortunately I was able to enjoy its gorgeous pristine screen for a week

Make sure you get a screen protector, so it doesn't scratch the screen

The screen had no scratches when I received it, BUT be careful, the entire front is like a phone screen so it can be prone to scratches (this is no G-Shock ladies and gentlemen)

Worked great for a few months, now the screen scrambles to where it is unreadable about half the time, which makes the watch only half as useful as it could be.

The screen and watch are both durable, more so than some reviews suggest

Bad screen

Screen will scramble and watch becomes unusable.

The the screens got really messed up every time till they stoped working on all of them and vibration would stop working as well

I do reccommend you get a screen protector as the watch is made of polycarbonate and the screen can get scratched easily.

Even if the screen clears up it messes back up when I get a notification

I swam for about 4 minutes trying to time my laps and the screen is dead now

Screen did not work well.

The screen scratches easily despite of what they say on the box

The screen randomly glitches

this watch has a horrible screen witch no longer is legible due to the digitizing

The screen is pretty visible.. the brighter the day, the more visible the screen

When it actually arrived, that great e-paper screen was nowhere to be seen; the malfunctioning, low-quality display is actually a very primitive-looking LCD screen

While I like the general capabilities of the device, it has a manufacturing flaw that makes the screen stop working properly

The only major downside I've come across so far is that the screen has tearing issues occasionally.

Awful can't see the screen in bright sunlight!

It had a few minor issues with it right out of the box, the band was broken in two places, the screen was wonky at

The screen looks like crap and goes out constantly.

The reason I'm giving it only 4 stars is the scrambling /Tearing screen issues that are well known for those who using the original Pebble.

Screen is unreadable 90% of the time!

The screen is amazing, you can see it in any light conditions, the charging port is excellent, the batteries last probably a

screen froze after a few months

The text on the display will become unreadable and I'll have to switch around screens before it clears up.

that do a lot more, have better screens, and look nicer (IMO)

but the screen went bad.too bad

Easy readable e-ink screen under sunlight, long battery life (with the high amount of notification I get, battery runs 3 days - fair enough), light weight, water resistance, good size on small Asian lady hand

From 1 week ago does not refresh the screen well

This fix clears the screen briefly.

says waterproof, but screen stopped working after two weeks of swimming

Junk don't work screen goes off not good.

I'm lucky if I can get it to the point where I can reset it because the screen is so bad at times and loses functionality

Worked great for a few months, now the screen scrambles to where it is unreadable about half the time, which makes the watch only half as useful as it could be.

I wish the screen was easier to read.

Straight out of the box the screen was fuzzy and even though there are glimmers of hope, it simply doesn't work.

The screen is a little too dark,but battery life is GREAT!!

Screen starting messing up within 2 months

The screen has already messed up and it won't hold a charge if you actually use it

Great watch for the 1st 12 days, good selection of apps, great clear screen in strong light or the dark.

Three stars due to screen corruption issues

Only complaint I have is everyone's in a while the screen is all scrambled but with one click of the back button it's back to normal rate watch would definitely recommend exceeds expectations work at an ice factory puts up with extreme cold heat and moisture

Easy readable e-ink screen under sunlight, long battery life (with the high amount of notification I get, battery runs 3 days - fair enough), light weight, water resistance, good size on small Asian lady hand

a thriving apps store that adds much to the watch, a great amount of built-in functionality, a long-lasting battery life, and an amazingly cool e-paper display that works really well in sunlight

The e-reader like screen initially delivers good battery life (up to 3-4 days), but the battery deteriorates quickly and the charger is just inexcusably awful, with the magnetic connection coming undone with the slightest touch
