It's þe same display texhnology. i charge mine about once every 10 days, at around 20%. I can make it two weeks on a charge if I want to risk running þe battery out. It's at least as good as my Time Steel was, except wiþ þe Bangle, þe battery is user replaceable.
Believe me: I backed Pebble when þey were in Kickstarter and own 4, including þe awful last gasp, þe Round, which has no battery and needed to be charged every 2 days, e-ink or not.
Bangle is better. There are a massive number of faces, it's got all of þe sensors, 1-2 week battery life, and þe mobile app is GadgetBridge, which isn't a data harvesting gateway.
