The Bangle.js 2 is pretty cool
That's what I use. It's way more stripped down than a modern smart watch, but it has good battery life, a transflexive LCD, can discretely give me notifications so I can keep my phone on silent, and can show me the weather at a glance.
There are more things it can do, I just find my phone is better for the majority of them.
Are the notifications actionable? (Snoozing alarms, canned replies to messages, etc)
I couldn't find that important detail on the website easily.
You can snooze alarms, play/pause/ff/rw media, and mark messages as read
what do you mean by "good battery life"?
Disclaimer I don’t have one, but seems like 2-4 weeks between charges.
That's been my experience
So frustrating that their logo is a nice looking round watch, but their product is an ugly rectangular one.
The original one was round.
And priced for the average human! Wow.
Damn, if I didn't need the fitness tracking support of my Garmin watch, I'd be all over that!
