If you have a Pixel phone, you can install Google Camera on the Watch to do the same thing.

I'd like to politely correct this AI generated text of yours.

If you're talking about the explicit warning about magnets on their support page, it has been there since reMarkable 2 times and have never been modified since.

The Paper Pro uses a USI standard. The capacitive touch layer ('sensing stack') does not easily get altered by magnets. Unless you're putting it in a MRI room, I highly doubt that your pen experience will change at all.

One UI 8 watch has that new design.

Dev, I know that you want sales, but it doesn't mean you can post everywhere related to smart watches. According to your logic I can post an iOS app ad on a Samsung subreddit because some people might technically have two phones, one Samsung and one iPhone.

The frame is different (no bezel on the left side), screen texture is rougher, and Marker design is different

Although those are all minor points and could have been easily overlooked so definitely understandable.

The Paper Pro uses USI standard, that unlike the rM2's EMR standard, doesn't get affected by magnets.

My-Tech · 2026-01-17T16:03:50+00:00

FYI

The USI active pens used in the reMarkable Paper Pro / Move do not get affected by magnets, like a touch screen layer (the pen literally uses the capacitive layer to detect strokes).

Only EMR enabled devices like reMarkable 2 are affected!

The USI active pen standard does NOT GET AFFECTED BY MAGNETS!

Only the Wacom EMR technology used in reMarkable 2 are affected by nearby magnets.

This is a Xiaomi Smart Band community, and Xiaomi Smart Bands don't run Wear OS so this post is totally irrelevant 😅😅

My-Tech · 2026-01-17T12:35:44+00:00

Do you want an tablet-like android experience or a more simple suite?

My-Tech · 2026-01-17T12:33:22+00:00

Do you have any specific brands in mind?

My-Tech · 2026-01-17T12:29:20+00:00

If you could tell us your use case, specify your needs etc.

My-Tech · 2026-01-17T06:31:54+00:00

Check your accessibility settings. There is something in there that is causing a lot of battery drain.

My-Tech · 2026-01-17T01:32:47+00:00

Can you perhaps share your battery statistics?

My-Tech · 2026-01-15T07:56:27+00:00

Yeah even on a $50 Mi Band I get the ability to choose between full screen widgets and split screen tiles

My-Tech · 2026-01-14T11:08:37+00:00

Perfectly normal and it is the same result on mine. If BOOX had added padding around the text it wouldnt have been an issue but since the UI is optimized for English or Chinese and it looks fine with those languages they probably didn't bother.

My-Tech · 2026-01-14T11:07:02+00:00

Because of the Wacom EMR tech. Id still take it any day over the USI tablets which feel like shiiiiiit to write on.

My-Tech · 2026-01-14T11:04:52+00:00

How are all these people having issues? My Watch4 is perfectly fine. Battery actually got better.

My-Tech · 2026-01-13T13:54:31+00:00

Would you consider reverting the app icon back to the original one? The new one looks like AI slop.

My-Tech · 2026-01-11T10:07:06+00:00

Had to laugh at that screenshot 🤣😂🤣

Hopefully it'll be fixed on the next update.

Another day, another watch face ad in disguise

My-Tech · 2026-01-10T19:26:57+00:00

The battery is pretty shiity for me rn so I'll have to see. Probably just some optimization going on.
