RE: colours & display: Is there sub-pixel rendering support? What's the layout of the LCD like?
The data sheet for the display is here: https://www.j-display.com/product/pdf/Datasheet/5LPM013M126C_specification_ver03.pdf
If I had to choose between more colours and more pixels I'd choose more colours. The display is already 194DPI (near enough to 200DPI) - basically the same as a 4K 24" screen. There's also the memory and power needed to generate and drive the display to consider.
Japan Display have a 64-colour version of what the Bangle2 has (dimensions are the same, pinout is slightly different, but still an SPI interface): https://www.j-display.com/product/pdf/Datasheet/5LPM013M601B_specification_ver01.pdf

Just got my v2, and love it!
Thank you for the hard work @Gordon ❤️
RE: colours & display: Is there sub-pixel rendering support? What's the layout of the LCD like? It's not extra colors, but it might go a long way in making the screen feel larger until a hypothetical v3 is built.
