Plenty of mass-market devices with round screen. Heres a 3+ year old Garmin watch with touch and pixel-based round screen:

Based on the size of the bezel couldn't that still be a rectangular lcd?

I tried finding pictures of the internals of that watch, but my google-fu is not strong enough.

Here is a picture of a teardown of a similar watch: http://gadgetnerdly.com/the-garmin-fenix-gets-the-fcc-teardo... , confirms square screen.

I have one (well, two at one point). The LCD is rectangular in a round bezel.

yeah it looks like a rectangular screen
