Eh? My Pebble Time has a color screen, and it sure is transflective.

The pebble time has a display like an old Game Boy Color
I can speak only for the Pebble Time Steel, but it is leaps and bounds better than the gameboy color.

I would kill for an equivalent display in a laptop - saturated colours and eink readability in direct sunlight with 30hz refresh

And so does Pixel Qi. They're both LCD, after all.
"transflective" is just a broad description of displays which take in light and reflect it back, implementations and drawbacks vary.
