+====== Smartwatches ======
+Similar to smartphones, but smaller, restricted in functionality even more, and on a wrist. Like the smartphones, these will usually run an ARM chip, and either WatchOS or Android Wear. A few of them are based off of more obscure architectures and OSes.
+===== 2000s Watches (general) =====
+==== Other ====
+=== Fossil Wrist “PDA”, OnHand PC ===
+Just a simple comparison table between two early 00s watch-esque PDAs. Apparently in 2005 the Fossil Wrist PDA has 4x the RAM of the OnHand PC.

+===== Apple Watch =====
+==== Other ====
+=== Doom  ===
+A very unoptimized port, but still, it is a functional port of Doom. WatchOS 2 is the version used?

+===== Google Android Wear (General) =====
+==== Operating Systems (varies) ====
+=== Classic Mac OS 1.1-7.5.5 (in Mini vMac) ===
+Runs very smoothly in the emulator. The video depicts version 6. Would be nice with a small stylus, or a bigger watch.

+=== Emulation Nest ===
+This device runs an operating system which is known to emulate various devices with EOPs. See the [[eop:operating_systems:conventional:classic_mac_os|Classic Mac OS]] and [[eop:operating_systems:conventional:dos|DOS]] pages.
+=== Windows 3.1 and 95 (aDOSBox) ===
+Windows 3.1 runs mediocre, while Windows 95 can barely even run applications. However, they do in fact run.

+==== Other ====
+=== Various games ===
+Just running some game APKs on the little Android Wear.

+https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ul6y0yOKthI (MCPE 0.9.5)
+=== Media player ===
+>Only software decoding players work
+Using something called QQT player, and is smooth at low resolutions.

+===== Huawei Watch =====
+==== Operating Systems (Qualcomm APQ8026) ====
+=== postmarketOS ===
+>First build the image
+Unsure if there’s more model info to this, past “Huawei Watch”. Touchscreen, flashing, and display all work, but of course, the output attempts to render itself in a square form factor. Other than that, the device functions on postmarketOS.

+===== IBM Custom Watches =====
+==== Operating Systems (Cirrus Logic EP7211) ====
+=== Native Linux 2.2 ===
+>successfully running Linux and X11
+A custom research watch with full Linux functionality, alongside of course, being a watch. Lead to some PDA-esque “watches” in the early 00s.

+===== LG G Watch =====
+==== Operating Systems (Qualcomm APQ8026) ====
+=== postmarketOS ===
+>Turn on your watch and swipe from the top left corner
+It boots, has touchscreen, Xwayland, and the accelerometer. Since this watch has a square screen, it probably features postmarketOS in a fashion superior to other smart watches.
+[[https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/LG_G_Watch_(lg-dory)]]
+===== LG G Watch R =====
+==== Operating Systems (Qualcomm APQ8026) ====
+=== postmarketOS ===
+>UART is multiplexed on the USB port. The watch has five pads that are directly connected
+Unlike the G Watch, the R means round. While it can still run postmarketOS, the circular screen makes it a lot less practical. Still, Xwayland, touch, booting, and so on all work.
+[[https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/LG_G_Watch_R_(lg-lenok)]]
+===== LilyGO T-Watch =====
+==== Other ====
+=== Doom ESP32 Port ===
+>This is a PlatformIO project
+Not dependent on any sort of operating system, but a cool proof of concept nonetheless.
+https://github.com/unlimitedbacon/TTGO-DOOM
+===== Mobvoi Ticwatch C2+ =====
+==== Operating Systems (Qualcomm MSM8909) ====
+=== postmarketOS ===
+>WARNING: Doing this will delete ALL your data on the device, so backup all your data before continuing!
+More fully featured than the Ticwatch Pro below. Has display function, WiFi, and a working touchscreen!
+[[https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Ticwatch_C2%2B_(mobvoi-skipjack)]]
+===== Mobvoi Ticwatch Pro =====
+==== Operating Systems (Qualcomm APQ8009w) ====
+=== postmarketOS ===
+>When the image created with the downstream kernel is flashed onto the device works
+A pretty basic smartwatch instance of postmarketOS. It does run on there, but there isn't even a display output yet. USB networking works!
