rectangular smartwatch master race
i don't care that watches used to be round because of a rotary mechanism. i want a SCREEN on my wrist and screens are square for a reason!

Tell me about it. They rather hamfistedly tried to fit a rectangular design language into a circular screen and it never quite works right.

To be fair, Apple seems to have done a good job at fitting a circular design language into a square watch…
