The new Nest Learning Thermostat has a 2.7-inch display, which is twice as large as the previous-generation device, but it also has a slimmer profile.

The similarity isn’t just seen in the curved glass display, but also in the interchangeable, customizable watch faces, which now look more like a watch face.
