Pebble Time or Apple Watch? After wearing the new Pebble Time for the past couple weeks and hearing many remarks about my “Apple Watch,” I decided to hit the streets of tech-savvy San Francisco and ask people if they could tell the two apart.
(For the record, the two smartwatches have notable differences — which are obvious once you really get a good look at or experience each of them. Read Re/code’s reviews of Apple Watch here, and the Verge’s thorough review of the Pebble Time here.)

Will you support Vox’s explanatory journalism?
Most news outlets make their money through advertising or subscriptions. But when it comes to what we’re trying to do at Vox, there are a couple of big issues with relying on ads and subscriptions to keep the lights on:
First, advertising dollars go up and down with the economy. We often only know a few months out what our advertising revenue will be, which makes it hard to plan ahead.
Second, we’re not in the subscriptions business. Vox is here to help everyone understand the complex issues shaping the world — not just the people who can afford to pay for a subscription. We believe that’s an important part of building a more equal society. And we can’t do that if we have a paywall.
So even though advertising is still our biggest source of revenue, we also seek grants and reader support. (And no matter how our work is funded, we have strict guidelines on editorial independence.)
If you also believe that everyone deserves access to trusted high-quality information, will you make a gift to Vox today? Any amount helps.
