This might come as a surprise, but the best smartwatch for Android users wasn’t developed by Google . For now, that honor goes to the Pebble Time, the latest from the company that pioneered the idea of a wristwatch for smartphone notifications.

While the Pebble Time smartwatch is a bit more pleasant than watches running Google’s own Android Wear, it joins those devices in a class below the Apple Watch. But Apple’s shiny new object only works with the iPhone, and costs far more than the $200 Time.

Toy? Not a Toy?

The first thing I noticed when I put on the bright red Pebble Time is how jarringly featherweight it is. It’s made largely of plastic—everything but the glass watch face and the gray stainless-steel bezel. This makes the watch feel a bit like a toy. And it’s not just the feel. “Is that a Lego watch?” “Nice Dick Tracy watch.” “Red? Are you in grade school?” Friends and co-workers spotted its chintziness a mile away.

Personally, I really like the way the Pebble Time looks. The rounded, rectangular face might not be as shiny as the Apple Watch or LG’s Urbane, but it’s handsome. And I’m into red, but Pebble sells the Time in black or white, too. No matter what color you choose, you can swap out the silicone band with the standard 22mm leather and nylon watch bands sold all over.
