This legitimizes the form factor, which is what is attractive, IMO. It’s the modern pocket watch and every pair of pants has had a spot for it since the 19th century. Talk about a stealth wearable entry.

Personally, I’m getting sick of lugging around a oversized slab in my back pocket and as much as I like my watch, I find myself taking it off or leaving it on the charger more than I thought I would. Having something with a slightly larger screen would hit that UX sweet spot and kill two birds with one stone.

And as far as form factors go, the CC size is pretty much universal. Just think of all the places a small screen like that could go.

How about a folding display or larger battery for a hotspot? Seems inevitable. If you’re questioning building one of these things, there’s plenty of supporting evidence that the idea fits the MAYA principle.
