Nearly a decade after its original smartwatch venture ended, Pebble has returned with the Index 01, a simple ring designed solely for capturing voice notes. Priced at $75 during preorder, the device uses local AI on your phone to process recordings into actions like setting reminders or creating notes, without any cloud involvement or charging requirements. Shipping begins in March 2026.
