   This devkit is awesome. I ported my game engine to it (which was already running on ESP32 so it was relatively easy) and actually use it as my everyday watch. Boots a 3D scene authored in Unity in about one second from power off. BMS keeps power to the RTC so it works as an useful clock, planning to add more features later.

   Battery lasts for weeks with this cold boot mode too

      This devkit does look fun. I had a few small personal projects I though might be worth writing for Android Wear OS, but Google isn't worth the hassle, and this little ESP32 Watch might be less friction.

      Have a link? I made a pokeball for my son on the ESP32 1.75c. Top button is used to cycle between various apps (jokes, tic-tac-toe, the memory game Simon, pokemon gifs, and a space game using the accelerometer). Bottom to shut down the device. Then each makes different use of swipe and tap gestures as needed.

      Curious what others have done.
