I personally don't use NFC payment at all. I just can't see the utility in it. If I leave the house I have my wallet, and I find it easier to take my card out of my wallet than to fiddle with NFC on my phone.
Sometimes I leave the house with only my phone. Why carry two things when one thing will do fine for a quick trip? Its my car keys, my credit card, my transit pass, etc. I've been moving towards using NFC payments for activating gas pumps as those readers still have you fully insert your card exposing the full mag strip. Its also often faster for me to just tap my phone than to take my wallet out, pull out the specif…
Love the Pebble -- still have my first OG one in my drawer!
> "30 day battery life" I've done the math and according to my calculations that's approximately 30X more battery life than an Apple Watch. Impressive!
About 60 for me. I have to charge mine while working to get it to last a day :/

I'm sure Intel's law firms are drafting a cease & desist as we speak. I'd bet $10 the name changes.
No such thing as bad publicity as they say. They'll be cheeky, the big dinosaur corporate will come out swinging and look bad like they always do, and they'll get a load of press in the tech websites which is their target market.
The bad press comes when it feels unfair for the big company to try and pursue action but in this case it would seem that Intel would be perfectly justified...

Unfortunately it's the software that determines how good such a device is to use. What's currently considered the best firmware for the Bangle? I will also note that backlit LCD is vastly inferior to e-paper in smartwatches. Size of the watch also matters, there are some tradeoffs you have to make.
ohh, I always thought my Bangle had e-inc display because the clock will last several months on one charge, and the display is always on.

That makes no sense. Profit, by definition, is net. If you still have to pay costs out of some money, then it isn't profit .
It's absolutely essential to be able to differentiate between gross profit and net profit to establish unit economics, especially as the scale of a newly founded operation may drastically change relative to some amount of fixed capex or SG&A expense.
If it’s sensitive enough, a compelling skydiving altimeter app could be developed. Considering most purpose built altis used worse screens and cost 350+, could be a quite compelling use case.

I have had an Apple Watch since the original and never had it that bad. I think something is wrong with your watch.
That's common for me after three or four years.
I don’t run it at high screen brightness though.
