Since the chips are so cheap, this might have more potential if it were slightly less dumb. Add a microphone (Already common on dumb players for voice recording), and WiFi(Basically free on modern chips), and you have a walkie-talkie.
You also have a remote control, since you have Bluetooth, and a clock/timer, and a pager, possibly a private offline voice assistant (Since on-chip AI is a thing now), possibly a game console(A capsense analog touchpad area is basically free, or you could use an accelerometer and do tilt based games), etc.
You could also have it connect *to* a phone and show notifications and stuff, to let you leave your phone in a backpack more often.
I do think a color screen would be worth it though.
