> The bid difference that I think people are trying to state is that no one really uses any of those other features. Not really.

I'm curious which features you are referring to? I have no need for 5 day battery life on my watch. Would it be great? Hell yeah. However, I also have no problem tossing my watch on the charger when I get in bed, just as I do with my phone.

Features like: answering phone through the watch, drawing, playing tic tac toe or other games (pebble also has some games, but it is quite silly to play games on watch), sending heart beats to someone else, or emoji.

That's I think all Apple Watch offers that pebble doesn't. I did not mention measuring pulse, because it is useful if you use watch for fitness tracking.

You've mentioned four things that are part of the messaging app, and phone calls.

If you aren't aware of the other things Apple Watch does that Pebble doesn't, you should probably do some more research.

I'm listing what my friends were showing that their Apple Watch can and I excluded what Pebble could do as well.

Can you list what other things Apple Watch can do?

I can, but it would probably be more efficient for you to just go look at the website.
