I don't understand this in the slightest. There's no advantage whatsoever to a round screen, but tons of disadvantages. Why not make your phone screen round? Why not make your computer screen round? Your TV?
Please, Core, resist the temptation to enshittify yourself with another useless round screen.
The pebble time round was the stylish version of the Pebble Time, you lost battery life and a smaller display but you got a significantly thinner sleeker watch.
I daily drive the pebble time, but wear my round for dates or when I want to be a bit more stylish. I still get compliments on it to this day.
Because the larger market of watch buyers end up buying way way more round watches than square or other shapes, thus a lager market of buyers and prices are probably lower. I don't really care though. It doesn't matter for these kinds of low sales boutique devices. I ordered one ;-)
