A:Answer No, you cannot watch video by default unless you side-load an app that allows you to. To be honest, it's not worth it with the small circular screen. This watch is for looks and function, not entertainment. You can also browse the web by side-loading an app that you to, and that is slightly more functional than videos, but barely.
In terms of texting and emails, you can text easily using the messages app the comes on the watch, the same Google messages app that most people use on their Pixel phones. It even has swipe-typed and pretty good autocorrect. It also does voice-to-text. Emails are another story... There is no default app, but I believe there are some on the play store as well as some you could side-load.
All in all, this watch is for someone who wants style, health metrics, and to be able to leave their phone but still stay on top of notifications, most importantly texts and calls. You can take calls directly on the watch as easily as text. It's also useful if you use assistant a lot for home devices.
