Number 2, but get rid of the serif font, and have the screen in amber, red, green or white, anything but blue. :)

they cant do that

the screen is a commodity part used on a slew of Chinese products

its ugly as hell but.. it works
 
I wouldn't personally discourage them from getting feedback on designs... it's best practice to have your target audience evaluate potential IDs, but it's fairly slow and expensive to do it in other ways. I'd rather that they do this than the most likely alternative, which is to do no testing at all and let some executive with questionable taste have final say.

Nobody has to respond to the survey, if you think it's leech-like behavior then just keep scrolling.
Cool.

Yeah, the Serif font doesn't really match the rest of the design. Helvetica would be very nice...

for every one product they post here they do five on aliexpress

like who cares really? if it bothers you it says more about you than them

Helvetica font (standard) in white or Amber/Orange in todays options would look better and suit the design of 2 much better imo but the Handel Got font would make it a classic...imo...and check the colour scheme in the sample photo, it's just so easy to look at...what I would call an 'all day design'. Something the eyes wouldn't grow tired with. How easy it would be to implement a beige background with the powder blue (white or black) with the Handel Got font is another story...

@AIYIMA Roboto is an open source font that looks similar to Helvetica and would be superior to the default font you are using.
 
The one with the bigger screen, but also should have screen completely off functions. Best if the user could select how fast it dies down, 5s, 10s or 30s.
I'd make more of the surfaces flat, at least in the front

Thanks, I will check it out. I don’t actually work for Aiyima myself, it’s just a keen interest in general…

Roboto font is cleaner than Helvetica, I still prefer Handel Got myself but yes Roboto has cleaner lines than the Helvetica and is more neutral than Handel Got so it could be the better choice long term rather than a classic/special edition. Personally much prefer the beige background and powder blue colour scheme than the colour scheme in this photo of the Roboto font. Good input GXAlan!

I like Handel, but since it’s a commercial font, it costs money to use.

Robots is open source, so I assume it is free for commercial use with attribution.
 
It is an opinion on two finished designs by the looks of it, so most of the hard work is already done evidently.
These are more like graphical models, they would not have given 2 options if one of those have had become reality by that time.
 
SMSL just put a really nice looking and easy to read 1.9" LCD screen with white & amber on the B2 unit it sells for $80.
I would think adding a decent screen like that would be pretty do-able and doesn't add much cost.
