When can we finally buy a smartwatch that can keep its (color) display ON during the entire day?
September 18, 2020. That's when Apple released their Watch Series 6, which has an always on color display, and enough battery to last all day.
>last all day
Is this really the benchmark for a wearable's battery life? A single day?
You can also configure PimeTime to have an always-on display, and it should even last more than a day.
A Garmin memory-in-pixel eInk (MIP) watch? Lots of choices there, since about 2015. Modern versions (MIP not AMOLED, the category is getting confusing) last about 10 days on a charge.
Watches with color memory-in-pixel displays have existed since Pebble.
To add, the current Pebbles are estimated to last 30 days. 10-14 days for the round ones.
