More and better e-ink, please. It's just the best at the things it's good at. Give me a foldable phone with one e-ink screen!
I wish they made more e-ink watches
I'd love a successor to Pebble which doesn't require an account. There are a number of options, but my issue is that most require creating an account with vendor, and app integration with - no doubt - copiuos data harvesting and reselling. Many are absurdly expensive.
There are several cheap options on Alibaba.
Goodreader.com lists a number of expensive e-ink watches, some of which look quite nice.
But I've got my eye on Watchy (github, old review); it was introduced a couple of years ago and is still being updated. It's also available from a couple of vendors, including preassembled through Amazon.
Tried https://bangle.js? Loving mine so far. Edit: my bad https://banglejs.com/
It is nice, but not e-ink
site is down
My bad it’s actually https://banglejs.com/
What battery life are you getting on that?
3-4 days easy. That’s with turning on all the gps/heartrate/iOS sync functions tho. Turning off the gps and heart rate monitor and I’m sure I could get 7 days easy, and turning fewer notifications I have no doubt it’s go 2weeks.
Cool, thanks
