Looks great but 24hr battery means either it's not tracking my activity during the day as I have it in the charger or it's not tracking my sleep at all.

@@Tmacademia I have a pixel 8 and a samsung watch. I do prefer the samsung watch look but I think I'm going to get the pixel watch 3. Luckily there are cases out there that change the look to be more in line to other watch designs.
I was waiting for smart alarm, the one that wakes you up when you are in the correct sleeping cycle. Another thing i think they missed here is the battery improvement. More with the bigger sized one. I own the Watch2, and i am not considering updating it, i consider the changes are so basic.
@@najdymiami I saw that feature is in Fitbit app already, but who knows why it's not available for Pixel Watch, but it is for Sense, Versa 3, Charge 5.
isnt that a feature that the watch already has? i belive my old fitbit sense does this already so i would be confused if the pixel watch could not do this
I had a SleepTracker Pro back in ~2009 and that "wakes you up when you are in the correct sleeping cycle" was life changing. I cannot believe this is not standard. Even with the imperfect tech back than and the gigantic size of the device, it was AMAZING! So much more useful than my apple watch.
I think that's less about the watch and more about what phone you have. I don't think the Pixel Watch works on an IPhone or vicaversa. If you have an Android Phone you've obviously got a better choice of different watches most of which I would imagine have fall detection. I'd hope they put fall detection on the Oura Ring and Galaxy Ring in the future, longer battery life and less intrusive.
This is just my first impressions. I had some time hands-on with the device. I'll have a full in-depth analysis in a few weeks once I have some time to test the accuracy
What happens when you accidentally swing your wrist and hit a door frame? I have a feeling it will crack or scratch really easily. I may be wrong though.
This is exactly what the Pixel Watch 2 should've been...unfortunately Google is still behind Samsung by a significant amount. At least improve the basics like charging speeds and battery life
Honestly as much I'm a fan and jealous of the pixel watch designs and ui etc, i think Samsung, apple, and garmin take the cake when it comes to FREE. Because i just dont buy the whole process where i purchase a product only to have acess to lole 70% of the software like, its just silly. Cool watch but still a no from me idk :/
4:14 This notifying capability of the unlocking of your phone through the smart watch is a clever security feature. It's not a bad idea to enable your smart watch to unlock your door lock security feature. It can be very handy and convenient.
I'd like to see a side by side comparison with Samsung, pixel, and apple's smart watch. Would be interesting to see the big 3 phone companies competing with watches next to each other
Two things that kill this for me. Exercise metrics behind a pay wall. There is no reason ANY of the fitness metrics to be behind a pay wall. That and the battery life. Again, no reason these companies can't do better with their battery life. Garmin gives you a week plus in battery life, and all of the fitness metrics are free. Garmin also makes far more rugged watches. Apple, Google, OnePlus are all behind the ball with those metrics and have far larger companies and money to improve these things but it's obvious their watches are still an after thought.
I had the first Pixel Watch and ended up ditching it. I’m actually really excited about this one! The Fitbit changes are huge and the bigger size is exactly what I was waiting for.
Have they improved the media controls? I have YT premium and want to buy the smart watch for jogging and music, for no other reason, no calls, sleep tracking etc I don't want to take my phone strapped to my arm anymore, I have a pro 7. Buds and Bluetooth and accessing my music easily. I've never owned a smartwatch... please help, thanks 🙏
Same. I'll wait for the Pixel Watch 4 or 5, maybe then they will have a custom Tensor chip with 7 years of updates and much improved battery. So far I'm extremely happy with my PW2.
UWB will normal provide a wider range, so will be a wrong foundation for proximity lock/unlock. However for trying to trigger find-me alarm for the car parked somewhere bit distant with too many others in between, it can be useful.
Google totally messed up the Fitbit migration to Google. I immediately lost my perfectly functional desktop app. Then Google did away with their web based app, then downgraded their mobile app. No more Pixel watch for me.
My PW1 has always lasted longer than the battery estimates. With lift to waka and AOD disabled I reliably get 1 1/2 days. I've always felt they've been conservative with their estimate. It's also hard to quantify as peoples usage varies a lot.
it's crazy how y'all complain about battery life, I charge my PW2 when I go take a shower at night and leave it off until I go to bed (since I'm usually watching tv or in bed on my phone) and after about an hour it's fully charged and lasts all the way until the sane time the next day. rinse and repeat, no biggie. note: AoD is off
how many steps you take in a day doesnt matter? try being a field tech, you feel it at the end of the day, especially when you are hitting the 20 to 30k mark on the daily. Most the features i prefer in a smart watch or health monitoring watch is my heart rate, my sleep report and cycle, as well as how many steps i take in a day, as well as how many calories i (supposedly) burnt off. Really matter just what you use your watch for.
I didn't know about the notification on the watch when someone picks up your phone. That's gonna be a reason to buy for me, especially with this wave of pickpocketing now
Pixel Watch 2 switched from an aluminum case to a stainless steel case. I appears the Pixel Watch 3 is using an aluminum case again. I think this is a good choice. The stainless steel case is perceptively heavier than the first Pixel Watch, and when I put the matte black metal link watch band on my Pixel Watch 2 I was a little dismayed at the combined weight of the watch band and the watch, I even considered going back to the black active band that comes with the wetch.
I'd love to have a PIxel Watch's accuracy in the Galaxy Watch 7, but with a full Samsung ecosystem, I can't really bring myself to get a Pixel Watch. I know they're compatible, etc, but I just prefer Samsung. I think if I want accuracy, I'll go Garmin. The battery life on the Galaxy Watch 7 that I'm getting is pretty good -- pretty much 2 full days, and it charges insanely quickly just when I'm in the shower, so I never really need to take it off otherwise. This Pixel Watch seems like the battery is, once again, gonna be pretty bad...
Thank you so much for telling us what's on the watch without Fitbit! That's what I was looking for and you came through. I don't need all the Fitbit stuff and I was trying to decide will it give me enough to make it worth buying. It does. Thanks again.
I really hope they make a rugged version like Apple ultra and Samsung ultra. I hit my watch against stuff all the time and it comes with bigger batteries.
But it's through Bluetooth rather than UWB, which is more precise. It's a shame Google added UWB to PW3, Pixel Buds Pro 2 and Pixel 9 Pros but not the normal Pixel 9, such an oversight
Huh? Samsung has ultra band. I use a watch 4 and galaxy watch on a s20 fe and have had that feature ever since. As long as I am close to my phone it remains unlocked
The thing that keeps me from getting any of these watches is the battery life. My Garmin epix lasts 18 days on a full charge with full functionality, most smart watches don't last 24 hours. I cant be charging my watch every single day/night.
Google cannot compete with Samsung or Apple in this smart watch arena. I'm not even an apple fan and I would buy an apple watch well before dropping any money on a pixel watch.
You can unlock your IPhone and Mac for years with your Apple Watch and also have the option to lock it back if it was a mistake. But glad google added this option as it’s quite handy.
I'm too entrenched in the Fitbit ecosystem to change my watch..and I used the NFC for linking card payments which I found useful. But the achilles' heel is still the poor battery life .
After just over a year of Galaxy watch 6 and 7, I've also been missing my Amazfit (had the GTR 4 and Balance). I really love their PAI system and the app, IMO, is superior to Samsung Health. They just need to develop their software a bit more and LTE versions would also be nice. With that I mean, expand their payment system on the watch, so you can add all cards, not just Curve (or somehow integrate Google Wallet, also an option), add a properly functioning assistant to the watch (I know it has Alexa, but just never was able to get it to work right), I think they now have their own AI assistant, but not sure how well that integrates with smart home devices, etc. A more functional way to store and play music from the watch would also be nice, rather than having to upload MP3's to it (i.e. maybe make some apps for the big names for music streaming). Have been very tempted by the Helios ring + Amazfit Balance offer they currently have running on Amazon, seems to me they are, so far, the only ones to understand a smart ring works best as a companion device to a smart watch, rather than a standalone device.
Got the Pixel 9 Pro XL, but probably stick with the Samsung Watch Ultra - really impressed with this slick watch from Samsung. Also stick with the Samsung Health ecosystem, just makes the data tracking easier.
Mate...this watch is completely gimped by battery life. Completely Gimped. Maybe Google could ask Ai how to get 7 day battery life as their engineers are clueless! Such as shame as everything else is 10/10
I feel like this is a dumb question, but I notice that the pink watch has a pink ui and the blue one has a blue ui etc... Does the color of the watch you buy set the color of your user interface? I saw a lot of complaints about the Pixel Watch 2 where people would try and customize their ui color and then still get the default green color a lot. Or are the pictures just your typical "artistic representation" kind of advertising?
