Man, what I really want is a e-ink smart watch....

I wonder how hard it would be to open source something similar with something like an nrf52 or similar and a 3d printed enclosure I might have to look into this tbh

Idk if Bangle.js is open source, but I imagine a e-ink display could be possible?

[–] MaggiWuerze@feddit.de 2 points 8 months ago

Main problem will probably be battery life. At least if you want to do more than show the time on it.

[–] CaptainHowdy@lemm.ee 1 points 8 months ago

Iirc there's a pine watch. Maybe it didn't have e-ink

I wish Eric had given us pebble v2 instead of beeper, honestly.

I got into Pebble last year, hahah. I have four now because I'm a weirdo (two Times, a Time Steel and a Round). Thank goodness for Rebble!

Hopefully you have better luck with the batteries than I did
