I ordered a replacement battery of eBay and followed along with the ifixit guide and somehow did not kill my probably l Pebble!

I followed the advice in the comments and did not desolder the old ribbon first but cut it and then soldered the new leeds to the PCB.

I have at best adequate skill so as long as you take your time and go slow with the adhesive it’s something that can be done.

    Good job! We need to do ourselves a favour and do more repair and less dispose and replace.

    And in your case: Nothing beats that feeling and make you love it more than after a repair you done yourselve!

Why Pebble?

  • Always-on e-paper screen (it’s reflective rather than emissive. Sunlight readable. Glanceable. Not distracting to others like a bright wrist)

  • Long battery life (one less thing to charge. It’s annoying to need extra cables when traveling)

  • Simple and beautiful user experience around a core set of features (telling time, notifications, music control, alarms, weather, calendar, sleep/step tracking)

  • Buttons! (to play/pause/skip music on my phone without looking at the screen)

  • Hackable (apparently you can’t even write your own watchfaces for Apple Watch? That is wild. There were >16k watchfaces on the Pebble appstore!)
