That watch's promo pictures make it suspiciously look like the COLMI you can buy for ~$30 on Aliexpress. I haven't been inclined to try it, but apparently you can reflash it with Pinetime and basically make it an open-source watch. However, Pinetime is missing a lot of the functionality of the stock firmware and the only real benefit is the ability to write your own apps. Yours has a different button on the side, but maybe made by the same manufacturer in China. Maybe it'd pair with the Colmi app? (some searches imply it may not be worth bothering: https://www.reddit.com/r/smartwatch/comments/q37ic6/did_you_fall_for_the_spade_and_co_fraud/ ) --- Post to this mailing list [email protected] Unsubscribe from this mailing list https://gtalug.org/mailman/listinfo/talk
