Maybe it's obvious—I got acceptable results using things like #FF8000 for orange (full red, half yellow). I'm not a fan of 3-bit colour, certainly in comparison with Bangle.js 1. Fortunately, I'm not drawing detailed pictures, and the number of users of my app won't likely exceed 10—in binary.

Based on the idea with "half colors", I wrote the following little test

  let ScreenWidth  = g.getWidth(),  PatchWidth  = ScreenWidth/6;
  let ScreenHeight = g.getHeight(), PatchHeight = ScreenHeight/6;

  g.clear();
  
  for (let i = 0; i < 27; i++) {
    let x = (i % 6)         * PatchWidth;
    let y = Math.floor(i/6) * PatchHeight;
    
    let R = i % 3;
    let G = Math.floor(i/3) % 3;
    let B = Math.floor(i/9);

    g.setColor(R/2,G/2,B/2);
    g.fillRect(x,y, x+PatchWidth-1,y+PatchHeight-1);
  }

The result does not look too bad (if you can live with half of the original spatial resolution)
