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.

I really liked the original version of Android Wear that just used informative cards linked to supported apps on the phone. I can’t stand the new versions that are essentially a tiny phone strapped to my wrist. I am looking forward to getting the Pebble Round 2.
