Great video. First one I see with the whole setup. Thank you! One comment: we need Fitbit to support multiple devices so we can charge the Pixel Watch at night and get more in-depth sleep analysis from a device like the Inspire 3 band (it supports SPO2, for example) and it's a smaller device for sleeping. It just makes sense. Other manufacturers like Samsung and Garmin support multiple devices on one account.
I'll be coming over from an older Samsung watch. In the gear app I am able to turn off which apps do not send notifications to my watch. IE I don't need my enterprise emails coming to my watch. I would be getting constant notifications. Is that a possibility with this watch?
Does Do Not Disturb, Bedtime Mode, Alarm state sync with the phone? I remember having a Ticwatch E a couple years back. Alarms would sync between it and the google clock app. I remember do not disturb also syncing with my phone
Good video! Thanks! I'm getting one for free with the new Pixel 7 Pro! Question, can you use Fitbit Pay on the watch? Because Google Pay I cannot use here with my bank, Fitbit Pay I used before, so I hope I can use this on the Pixel Watch.
@@nl101010 I guess they think wallet is enough but if you can't use it, that will be annoying for you. It's a nice watch. I'm getting to know it's operation slowly.
Great video. I just got my new pixel 7 on Wednesday. I've been really thinking about getting the pixel watch as well. I just have a quick question. Do you have to pay to sign up for Fitbit?
@@aarav-varshney8870 so wrong apple is far superior. I was forced to switch from Apple watch to Samsung when I got my pixel, and the UI is garbage and everything about the watch seemed like a cheaper downgrade
Hi Tim, great walkthrough vid. Just wondering with the 4G LTE version can you turn off the cellular feature and will the Watch function the same as the Bluetooth wifi version without any hassle and being continually prompted to connect to cellular? Asking as (in the UK at least) you can claim a free watch when you buy the pixel 7 Pro and you can choose between the 2 versions at no extra cost....Thinking choose the 4G right?..... and have the option to connect it in the future if I eventually feel like shelling out for a watch cellular plan.
I just finished exploring my watch, and yes there's an option to turn off the LTE option in the settings. You can connect to the wifi and the Bluetooth.
Was thinking the exact same thing. If you buy the 7 pro you get the pixel watch free. Regardless of Bluetooth or LTE model...so might as well get the LTE model and it gives me the option to add a network plan later if I feel like it. Glad to know someone was thinking the same
Were you able to test the capability of the Google pixel watch 2 to play music stored in the watch without having to connect to Wi-Fi? In doing so did you have a rapid loss of battery power?
Hey could you please answer a question for me!.....If I buy the LTE pixel watch and don't add a SIM to it, can I still connect it to my phone via Bluetooth and use it like a normal non LTE model? I hope you can help me out. Thanks for the video
Is there a way to access the apps without having to firmly press the side button? I wish thst button was easier to press, if need to repeatedly press it.
Great video! Really helpfull seeing some fo the set up and app settings. Glad there is a lot of option for watch orientation. Really interested in getting one but concerned about the Syncing and battery life issues other reviewers seem to be bringing up. Though if the battery life is good without GPS (I tend not to need it) then I think i'll be happy with it. Looking forward to the review!
Hummm …still not impressed compared to the Apple Watch.. just from the little lag it had on what I see already lost my interest. But I’m always ready to take a peek to see others are doing. Thank you for the Video Tim! Aloha!
I have like 2 hours in, after the update and set ups, it's actually really instant on all the apps and notifications. It's really quick and has a nice sound for notifications
Can’t believe how much this looks like the Apple Watch 3 I had. Down to the same band color. I do think if I get this watch I’ll wait until Black Friday. Just ordered a pixel 7 so this would go very nicely with it.
Thanks for the vid! Curious on the strap sizing... What size is your wrist? I was going to order the leather band, but not sure whether to get the small or large - it seems I'm pretty close to both. I measured mine at 173mm. Since you were mentioning at 4:30 you were that "in-between size", I was curious if I sit around the same (can probably get away with either S or L)...
Tim I'm having trouble pairing my pixel watch to my pixel 7 pro. During the setup the 6 digit pin does not come up for me to confirm and it is preventing me to pair my watch to my pixel phone. Do you have any ides on how to fix this problem with not getting a pin number to confirm. The setup just keeps going over and over saying it can't pair the devive. thanks.
@@sjchac it was only a mistake because initially I wanted to order the silver with the grayish band but in haste I clicked on the chalk band. I have had it for 4 days now and I don't regret having chalk at all. I've also ordered replacement bands in a darker colour so I can swap them over when I need to dress up a little 😁
Between Pixel watch and galaxy watch 5, which one would you recommend? Help pls I have the $200 discount for both of them on bestbuy. Having a Pixel 7 pro
Google needs to fix OS 3 before it makes its own watch. I'm not the only one that can say this or that notices it but the UI is made for a square watch not a round watch. OS 2 took advantage of the round circular face and scrolled it in a nice way accordingly so that it went with the curves of your circled watch but now when you scroll through menus you can clearly see that they are in rounded Corner boxes made for a square watch. The same thing goes for my fossil Gen 6. They didn't do anything to the UI to make it look better with that ridiculous black bezel either all they did was darken everything including trying to darken all of the watch faces so that you don't notice. But they really need to go back to the UI look of OS 2... the design of three is nice and minimalistic however it functions as it belongs on a square watch face
@@goldenaccs980 yes you can! I haven't downloaded it personally, but if it's like Fitbit, you'd have sign in on your phone then you'll be able to use it normally on the watch
I'm loving the haptics in my pixel watch and the old screen is really sharp, vibrant and dark. Definitely looks and feels better than my Galaxy watch 4. Can't wait until my 3rd party gold link band comes in. I finally feel I can wear my smartwatch out to events with the metal band because of sleek design.
let me guess, the battery life is pure trash though even the stated battery life is a god damn joke I bet actual use case is like half of what is stated if not less , I bet this thing is useless for sleep tracking because of shit battery life
Beautiful piece of machinery. Just ordered mine and am very excited for my first smart watch. This is something out of my dreams is a child, feels futuristic!
Bro this is way better than Samsung watches but still might not beat Apple Watch so I will be looking forward to a comparison between the Apple watch and the Pixel watch
Will Pixel Watch be LTE? Google's first Pixel Watch with Fitbit technology hits store shelves on Thursday. The Pixel Watch starts at $350 for Bluetooth and Wi-Fi and $400 for 4G LTE. Google's new flagship phones, the $600 Pixel 7 and $900 Pixel 7 Pro, are also available on Thursday.12-Oct-2022
I like the watch but can't get over that horrible huge bezel. Kind of hoped that with the time Google had to develop this, they'd come out with something better, a smaller bezel. It's a shame because the design looks really nice and sophisticated. Well, gonna wait for Pixel Watch 2...
I've had this watch for 8 hours and already scratched the hell out of it. I have been so conscious to be careful I'm not even sure when it happened. Extremely disappointed in the lack of durability. There's no way this thing is going to survive my outdoor lifestyle.
That's subjective. I do, however, think that the watch "might" look disproportionate on men with larger wrists. I cut Google some slack in this area, though, considering one could argue the Apple watch is too large and masculine-looking for women with small wrists, yet that's not deterring women from buying it. Men with average-sized wrists can pull this watch off just fine.
Finally, someone who's not just reviewing Fitbit only, thank you

Thank you for demonstrating how easy it is to change bands.
I love mine. It's a bit overpriced, but very beautiful and trouble-free. Works pretty well with my samsung phone (Fold 4).

I've had the Samsung watch 3 for a while and it started to slow down, so with the pre order of the pixel 7 and watch offer I'll be getting this 👍
Really want to know if the wireless charging can work on any Qi Charger or even on Samsung watch chargers. Great video
Mines come tommorow. Can't wait
Nice video! It's working with Google Fit? Or only Fitbit app? TNX

Happy new year 😀🎉🎉
Tim, After installing the pixel watch app it does not ask me to confirm any 6-digit pin. Any idea why? I think that's my problem.
does it heats up and shuts like watch 5 pro LTE when using LTE (not wifi or bluetooth) for calling and other data ?
Can I use Spotify with any Bluetooth buds while on a run while leaving my phone at home or in the car?
Lol
You can't do that
