What exactly is meant by "smart features" ? The watch is an esp32 microcontroller driving an ePaper screen and a gyroscope (I forget if there are any other peripherals). It's already much smarter than a "regular" wristwatch, and being open source you can make it as smart as you want (in theory and within the performance allowed by it's specs, of course). The stock "os" will fetch the weather and adjust to daylight savings via internet.

Do you mean stuff like there's no smartphone app available for it? It doesn't pair with a smartphone out-of-the-box to do things like show SMS, email, calendar events, etc?

Compared to a pinetime, for example, it's a "dumb" watch. I has a step counter and an eink screen, but thats about it. The pinetime has alarms, notifications, call answering media controls, etc. So I guess it has potential, but it falls short of what I would think most people would consider "smart".
