Pebble Time 2 has now entered mass production. We’ve finished all the testing and design changes we need to make. Things are working very well!

Here’s the rough manufacturing and shipping schedule

• We started mass producing a few dozens watches per day. Over the next month we’ll ramp up to our target of 500 per day.
• The first PT2s will ship out during the last week of March.
• With over 20,000 pre-orders, we expect to finish shipping around the beginning of June.

Pebble Time 2 Production Update: We’re in the Production Verification Test (PVT) phase right now, the last stop before Mass Production (MP).

Entering PT2 Mass Production on March 9.

Based on current schedule, the first mass production PT2s will arrive on wrists during the beginning of April. We should wrap up delivering all pre-ordered Pebble Time 2s two months later by the beginning of June.

Did we ever really need a phone on our wrists?

As soon as I held the Pebble Round 2 in my hand, I suddenly realized what I’d been missing for the better part of a decade. I’ve always felt smartwatches should supplement, rather than supplant, your phone, but that’s an attitude that feels almost quaint these days.

• Yesterday, Pebble watch software was ~95% open source. Today, it’s 100% open source. You can download, compile and run all the software you need to use your Pebble. We just published the source code for the new Pebble mobile app!
• Pebble Appstore now has a publicly available backup and supports multiple feeds, providing long term reliability through decentralization. We’ve launched our own feed and Developer Dashboard.
• Pebble Time 2 schedule update (aiming to begin shipping in January, with most arriving on wrists in March/April)
• New Tick Talk episode #4 is up, with Pebble Time 2 demos!
