Pebble is finally making progress on Time 2 orders, and I value the openness.

      Here’s the specific shipping date for your Pebble Time 2, along with information on how Pebble is addressing the small number of watches that may have hardware issues.

      If you've been constantly checking your order status for months, Pebble has finally provided a date to note down. The company's huge update from July specifies when the remaining Pebble Time 2 pre-orders will be shipped.

      In addition to shipping information, the July update also highlights how Pebble is managing its return to the smartwatch sector.

      So, when should you expect your Pebble Time 2 to arrive?

      According to the report, Pebble has produced over 23,000 Time 2 units since mass production commenced in late March. Moreover, they have fulfilled more than 80% of pre-orders. If you are still waiting, here is the shipping schedule for your model:

      Grey and Blue models are set to ship on July 28, while Black and Red models will ship on July 31, 2026.

      This also includes Batch 6 orders. Once this batch is dispatched, Pebble will have stock available with no wait time. So, if you’ve been unsure about ordering, now you know when to act to avoid returning to pre-order status.

      What if your watch arrives with an issue?

      Pebble is also being transparent about any imperfections, which is commendable. The company has recorded 330 hardware replacements from over 19,000 watches shipped, addressing issues like short battery life, touchscreen problems, cracked glass, and buttons dislodging from internal clips.

      Every reported hardware problem will receive a free replacement, regardless of warranty status, and it will be shipped worldwide. Additionally, software improvements for tracking accuracy, accelerometer dropouts, and touchscreen misregistration are underway, though Pebble has not provided a specific timeline for these updates.

      Round 2, Pebble’s circular smartwatch, is projected to enter full mass production in late July, with all pre-orders expected to ship by the end of September.

      In my opinion, Pebble's openness about defect counts and willingness to replace units regardless of warranty is exceptional for a company of its size, especially compared to larger smartwatch manufacturers, who seldom reveal failure rates transparently.

      Samsung aims for its upcoming Galaxy Watch to serve as your AI health assistant

      In anticipation of its July 22 Unpacked event, Samsung has hinted at AI-driven health features and enhanced internal components for its forthcoming smartwatches.

      The Galaxy Unpacked event on July 22, 2026, won’t solely focus on new foldable devices; Samsung has started promoting its next-generation smartwatches, heavily emphasizing AI. In a news release ahead of the event, the company promises "a whole new level of effortless wellness," characterizing the forthcoming watches as "AI-powered health companions."

      You can apply this wearable to your skin like a tattoo to track your heart and brain functions.

      This tattoo not only enhances your appearance but may also save your life.

      Wearable health trackers have become increasingly compact, intelligent, and capable over time, yet they often remain surprisingly mundane. Whether it's a smartwatch, a chest strap, or a sticky ECG patch, many health sensors still depend on bulky designs that can peel away, irritate the skin, or lose accuracy when sweat is involved. There's also been a trend towards integrating this technology into clothing, though that's not the focus today.

      Researchers at Penn State believe they have discovered a much more refined solution. Instead of attaching another sensor to your skin, why not simply paint one?

      Made by Google August 2026: Expectations for the Pixel 11 launch event

      Tensor G6. Gemini Intelligence. Higher price tags. Google is gearing up for its most significant hardware event in years on August 12, and here’s what major leaks suggest we can anticipate.

      The next three months will shape the future of the global smartphone market. As three key device manufacturers prepare to present the next wave of foldables and flagship models, the memory crisis is escalating with each quarter, driving phone prices up across all categories.

      Samsung will unveil its latest foldable devices on July 22, 2026, followed by Apple’s new CEO, John Ternus, presenting the iPhone 18 Pro and the first foldable iPhone in September (as has become routine). However, August will be when Google holds its "Made by Google" launch event to unveil the Pixel 11 series.
