----- SUMMARY ----- Verdict: The Pixel Watch 2 is a great smartwatch for people who want a lot of features and are serious about tracking their health and fitness. It's sleek and comfortable to wear, and it has a lot of great features, like heart rate monitoring, sleep tracking, and automatic workout tracking. However, the software could be better, and some features are only available with a subscription. Plus, it only comes in one size, which might not be ideal for everyone. Overall, it's a great smartwatch, but there are a few things that could be improved. Pros: - Sleek and elegant design - Comfortable to wear - Fast performance - Accurate heart rate and step tracking - Wide variety of health metrics - All-day battery life - Charges quickly Cons: - Wear OS could be better - Some features require a subscription - Only one size option - Large bezel ----- DETAILS ----- Design: The Pixel Watch 2 is sleek and simple, just like its predecessor. The curved glass edges look great on any wrist, but I'm disappointed that there's only one size option. The watch looks a bit too small on my wrist, and I like my watches to make a statement. The Pixel Watch 2 just looks dainty. Most watch faces on the Pixel Watch 2 make the black bezels mostly unnoticeable, but any colorful backgrounds or apps make them apparent. This makes the screen feel small, which is unfortunate because the screen is already smaller than I'd like. The large bezels eat into the screen real estate, which is a bummer. Okay, so the Pixel Watch 2 isn't perfect. Its design has a few minor flaws, but overall, it's a great smartwatch. It's comfortable to wear, the interface is easy to navigate, and it's durable. The Corning Gorilla Glass 5 and 5 ATM water resistance mean you can wear it swimming, in the shower, or in the rain. I also appreciate that Google made the body out of 100% recycled aluminum. It's not as durable as stainless steel, but it's still strong enough to withstand everyday wear and tear. And it's a lot lighter, which is nice. Software & Performance: The Pixel Watch 2 is equipped with Wear OS 4, Google's latest smartwatch operating system. It's easy to use: swipe left or right to see tiles for your calendar, weather, steps, heart rate, and more. Swipe down to see your settings, and swipe up to see your notifications. You can also access Google Assistant by pressing and holding the crown or by raising your wrist and saying "Hey Google." It's all very intuitive and easy to use. Apps like Gmail and WhatsApp are surprisingly functional and useful on the Pixel Watch 2. They're easy to use, with designs similar to the phone apps. Typing out a message is doable, but using speech to type is way more efficient. The built-in microphone picks up my voice really well in a variety of environments, so I almost never have to correct any major mistakes. I've run into a few Wear OS bugs here and there that I hope will be fixed in future updates. One is that I don't always get all the notifications from my phone. I'll sometimes see a notification pop up on my phone's lock screen and expect the same from the Pixel Watch 2, but nothing happens. This makes me hesitant to leave my phone somewhere inaccessible for a while, in case I miss an important notification. The other thing I've noticed is that there's sometimes a significant delay between the buzz of a new notification and the notification actually appearing on the screen. I'm hopeful that bugs like these will be fixed, because otherwise Wear OS on the Pixel Watch 2 is snappy and responsive. Fitness & Health: The Pixel Watch 2 is packed with sensors that track your health and fitness in all kinds of ways. Two of the key sensors are the skin temperature sensor and the continuous electrodermal activity (cEDA) sensor. These sensors work together to monitor signs of stress, and you can choose to get notifications that ask you to rate your mood. If you select "frustrated" or "stressed," the watch will suggest a breathing exercise or a walk to help you relax. The Pixel Watch 2 can also alert you if it detects an irregular heart rhythm. The Pixel Watch 2 is awesome for tracking your workouts. It's super easy to start tracking a workout by selecting it on the watch, or the watch will automatically start tracking seven different exercises for you, including running, walking, outdoor biking, indoor biking, treadmill, rowing, or elliptical. I've found the prompts to be reliable, and once I'm done exercising, I get a notification within a few minutes to end the workout. Other features like pace training and heart zone training let you visualize your pace or heart zone so you can optimize your training and reach your goals. Sleep data is also tracked really well on the Pixel Watch 2. You can see a breakdown of your sleep with graphs showing how much time you spent in each stage of sleep, like REM and deep sleep. It also tracks how much time you spent in restorative sleep. All of this data is used to calculate a personalized sleep score that tells you how well you slept. Some cool features, like the Daily Readiness Score, which gives you workout intensity and recovery guidance, as well as the personalized sleep analysis profiles and insights into the factors influencing your sleep and stress scores, are only available through Fitbit Premium, which costs $10 a month or $80 a year. It would be nice if some of these valuable features were available without a premium subscription, but that's just how it is. Battery & Charging: The Pixel Watch 2 is a beast when it comes to battery life. You can use it for a full 24 hours with the always-on display enabled, which is something the previous version couldn't do. Of course, if you're tracking workouts or installing a lot of apps, the battery will drain faster, but you should still be able to get through a full day on a single charge. The charging speed is also pretty impressive. If the battery is almost dead, just 30 minutes of charging will get it to about 70%, and an hour will fully charge it. I find the fast charging especially useful for sleep tracking. I usually put the Pixel Watch 2 on its charger while I'm getting ready for bed, and it always has enough charge for a full night of sleep tracking by the time I hop in. ----- WHAT’S IN THE BOX ----- 1 x Google Pixel Watch 2 1 x Small Active Band 1 x Large Active Band 1 x USB-C Fast Charging Cable 1 x Quick Start Guide

It’s very easy to setup! I love the sleek and stylish look it has!

I love being able to answer phone on my watch. It has alot of other features.

The watch works really well and the delivery process was amazing

Amazing watch! Great upadte over previous generation

Watch so far performs good, other then having to buy a new band right off the get go.its the size of a childs wrist.

Had for about a week. Used it one morning and felt and tickle/burning instation on the top of my wrist never to the sensors. Ended up blistering up after a few day. Returned yhe device. Love my pixel pro 7, wish i could enjoy this. The best buy app wouln't let me put a review for a while, needs working on.

This by far has been the worst shopping experience. The original purchase was stolen by the delivery person from FedEx. He ripped the bottom of the box, took the watch out, retapped the box with scotch tape and delivery an empty box. BestBuy offered to replace the watch so I chose pick up since I do not wanna risk it for a second time. I waited for a week just to be told the watch wasn’t available at the location I chose and I needed to select another store or my order would be cancel. I had to select another store not even close to my area since I had no other option. I’ve been waiting for another week so hopefully on Sat I won’t be told the same story one more time. This was supposed to be a Christmas gift and the whole experience was just ruined. It’s January 4th and I still do not have the watch I paid for and that I was supposed to get on the 22nd. Simply frustrating.

The Google Pixel 2 Smartwatch has arrived for 2023 and it's a game changer. After being entrenched in the Apple Ecosystem for a very long time, it's a breath of fresh air to finally give Android some love. Unboxing the new Google Pixel 2 Watch couldn't be easier. Hold the box on either side where the cut outs are and slide the sleeve up. Open the box and it will fold out like a book to showcase the watch. On either side of the box, you will see pull tabs which are for the included large band and USB-C to magnetic pin charger for charging. The Google Pixel 2 Watch now comes with an aluminum casing vs last year's stainless-steel casing. To some, the watch may not look as elegant, however it's more refined this year and is lighter by 5 grams. That may not sound like a lot, however it's more comfortable to wear. Inside the Google Pixel Watch 2 features a new Quad Core CPU that provides performance improvements and efficiency. You will notice the improved smoothness navigating the Wear OS 4 interface. This year there is a slightly larger battery that will provide up the 24 hours with always on display activated. Health Tracking Features have been greatly improved as well and now include Irregular Heartbeat Detection using the ECG App, Skin Temperature Sensor and Electrical Sensor for Body Response Tracking. The Google Pixel 2 Smartwatch comes with Fit Bit Premium trial for 6 months which provides a vast amount of Health benefits to include Fitbit's Sleep Profiles. Overall, the Google Pixel 2 Smartwatch is a great competitor to the Apple Watch series of Smartwatches with more flexibility and looks great in doing so

Watched stopped working due to overheating issues within a month of purchase. While it can be replaced under warranty there is no guarantee that the problem won't happen again. Both fitbit and Google should give up on their motive to be an ace manufacturer of smartwatches

I’ve owned a few Wear OS watches over the years and for one reason or another they’ve always pretty quickly gotten relegated to a drawer somewhere. Usually it was because even brand new out of the box they felt perpetually under-powered. Combine that with the spotty update history and they were never anything I wanted to stick with long term. The Pixel Watch 2 is different and it feels like Google might have finally got the smartwatch right. The Watch 2 is a great-looking watch, the processor can keep up with me, it has a battery that will last the day, and it has Google’s support behind it. My only worry is that it's not well protected and I’m dreading the day I slam my wrist a little too hard on a wall or scrape it against something. The model I received the box contained the watch, a silicone band, and the charging cable. The charging cable is different from the previous-generation Pixel Watch and is proprietary and has a USB-C connector on the other end. No charger is included in the box. The silicone band has a small and large size included in the box. I’m a 6’ 3” guy and I ended up using the larger band and wore it on the second to last notch on my wrist, if that gives you an idea of the fit. The wearing experience so far has been good. The 41mm case size is the only one available for the Pixel Watch 2 and a bit smaller than what I have previously worn, but it looks good on my wrist. The silicone band that’s included is good, but I ended up getting the Woven Band for everyday wear and I’m liking that a lot better. Changing the band was a bit unintuitive to me at first, but once I understood the mechanism it wasn’t too bad. I’d recommend consulting a video the first time you change bands. One problem I’ve had with other smartwatches is I end up accidentally pressing the crown with my wrist and I haven’t had that issue with the Pixel Watch 2 and I’m thinking that’s thanks in part to its smaller size. The case is a beautiful circular pebble shape and it looks fantastic. The crown is smooth and easy to press and so is the side button, though it’s a little harder to find by feel since it’s recessed into the watch case. The main problem I have with it is the nature of the design exposes all of the watch face to potential damage. I’ve had some light taps against a few surfaces over the past few days and it’s held up well, but I worry that a more significant impact could have lasting effects. This is probably one of the few products I’d buy a protection plan for, especially if you have a more active lifestyle. Using the watch, I’ve got absolutely no complaints about the speed, which is far more than I could say about previous Wear OS watches, even straight out of the box. The interface and animations are smooth and apps load quickly. Wear OS is easy to navigate and simple to use, especially for managing notifications and messages. I’m not a particularly active person, but the built-in Fitbit app seems to work well and has a lot to offer for tracking and starting exercises. The Pixel Watch 2 comes with 6 months of Fitbit Premium and it’s $10 per month after that, so if you don’t intend to make use of it make sure and set a reminder to cancel before you get charged. The screen is sharp and looks great. The bezels are on the chunky side, but the watch does a good job of blending the interface with the edges so in general I would have a hard time telling you where the screen ends and the bezels begin. I generally keep mine on mute, but the speakers built in are clear and loud for alerts and calls. The battery life so far has been very good. I can get through a whole day no problem, even with heavy use. If I’m interacting with it less I could see pushing it to a day and a half. It charges quickly too and I get it from low to almost 100% while I’m just getting ready in the morning, so you can wear it while you sleep and charge it up for the day quickly. I don’t wear mine to bed because I’m a bit of a restless sleeper and worry I might bang it against something. I don’t like the fact that the Watch 2 doesn’t have wireless charging though. It means if you are charging in multiple locations you have to bring an extra cable or own multiples of something that is only going to work with the Pixel Watch 2 and possibly a couple of Fitbit devices. Overall I’m really happy with the Pixel Watch 2. I have some concerns about the long term durability and the proprietary charger is not my favorite, but this might be the first smartwatch I wear for more than a couple of weeks and I’m excited to see where Wear OS watches go from here.

As a Pixel phone & Pixel Buds user, I was excited to get the Google Pixel watch and round out the trifecta. Initially I was skeptical of the look of the watch as I prefer a more "professional" looking wristpiece and this is clearly geared toward the fitness/health folks - especially with its obviously-close development with Fitbit. Nevertheless, the watch has impressed me in some ways while disappointing me in others. To start, the crown is *amazingly* smooth and navigates the OS with ease. It's not hard to roll at all. However, the upper button is very hard to push effectively, and its behavior can't be customized (or at least not that I've found) - it's hard-wired to just launching a screen showing you your recent apps. On my previous Android Wear device, I had two additional buttons which could be customized and I enjoyed this functionality heavily. This is a miss in both design and software. Google decided to get so far in bed with Fitbit here that they completely changed their charging mechanism; you're now left with a 4-pin connector that has only *one* proper orientation: coming out the side of the crown. This design is immeasurably poor for obvious reasons and takes us right back to the days of putting USB cables in upside down, etc. Definitely could have done better here. This also means all of your Pixel Watch (1) charging accessories no longer work. However I have found that chargers compatible with Fitbit Sensa will work for the Watch 2 (at least until the market shores up). Lastly, Wear 3 has been a disappointment since release for me - so much so that I refused the upgrade on my previous Android watch so I could continue to have table-stakes functionality between watch and a phone: Shared Timers and Alarms. Instead, in Wear 3+, Google thought it best to completely separate these two things, so an alarm on your phone won't play on your watch (and vice versa) and a timer set on your watch won't play on your phone (and vice versa). Completely nonsensical IMO. I have been impressed by the aftermarket selection of bands, however, and have already upgraded the OEM one to a metal link one which gives the watch a more professional look, which I enjoy. If you can get past the design and software flaws, it's a great watch. The battery life is insane - lasting 48hr without a problem and charging lightning fast - so it's the first smartwatch I've been able to wear to bed to do sleep tracking! The sleep tracking metrics line up pretty close with what my Sleep Number bed reports, so its sensors are pretty decent. The watch also comes with 6mo of FitBit Premium for free; while I'm not a health nut, I have enjoyed the ability to get stats like O2, heart rate, and - when sleeping - oxygen fluctuations that can point to signs of sleep apnea. Additionally, it also has built-in fall detection. I do wish Fitbit wouldn't have such a closed off ecosystem as I have a smart scale that I cannot link, unfortunately.

I tried so hard to like this pixel 2 smartwatch with LTE, my biggest issue with it is it's small and looks more like a toy than a smartwatch. Especially on a man's wrist, it looks so small. The pixel 2 works just fine as a smartwatch whether your checking the time, receiving a text or sending one, tracking your sleep or making a phone call on it. I just wish they made a larger option somewhere around 47mm-50mm. I had no problems setting up this pixel watch 2 with my new pixel 8 pro phone. After initial setup and pairing of the watch to my phone there was a firmware update for the watch that I installed. I also had to setup a Fitbit account for the watch which was fast and simple. Wear OS 4 works and looks good on the pixel watch 2, in my opinion the pixel watch 2 is a pixel phone made for your wrist. My lte model watch worked great when away from my phone for call and texts on the T-Mobile network, as well as updating apps on the watch via the playstore. No issues using this watch with LTE whatsoever for me. Sleep tracking works great, and my favorite keeping track of my daily steps and heart rate. All work well via the Fitbit app. Notifications for my Google calendar events all synced from my phone easily to keep track of nicely. I did not like the charging puck with its 4 contact points, I would rather have wireless charging built in like Samsung and apple watches do. Charging for the pixel watch 2 is slow and cumbersome with the charging puck. Battery life, ugh battery life... It's terrible only a day, so this needs charging every single day, which is horrible. If your a medium to heavy user like me you may need to charges this watch 2x in a single day, which was a real downer. For me to reconsider the pixel watch as a real smartwatch contender Google needs to put a battery in it that will last a minimum of two days, and make a larger version of the watch. Please also bring back wireless charging like the first pixel watch had.

Battery life is horrible. Doesn't last a day. Charge it every night may have sleep pattern features but doesn't matter since it has to stay on charger.

The Pixel Watch 2 is a must have for anyone with a google pixel device. The setup is easy, just turn on the bluetooth from your pixel phone which should prompt you to connect to the watch. Then it will notify you to download the pixel watch app which is the way you'll sync the pixel watch to your google account or learn about features like fall detection. The build quality is really good and comfortable to wear for long periods of time, But I would recommend getting a screen protector since my watch has already gotten some minor scratches from just a week of use. It’s very practical and great for just having the main functions of a phone like phone calls, texts, music, checking emails/notifications, alarms, Google assistant. While also having other features such as a heartbeat monitor, sleep tracking, and fitbit. The clock face is customizable with multiple pre-installed faces that are all customizable to your liking. Also you can download more on the watch's play store. The watch comes with two bands, a smaller one that is already on the watch and a larger one that you’ll have to put on. The watch comes with a magnetic charger that you'll need to charge the watch since the watch can only be charged magnetically. The watch is water resistant so you wont need to worry if it gets wet you can wash your hands and go out in the rain with it on. I have heard you can go swimming with it on but I did not try putting that to the test. The battery is really good, it lasts me the whole day and the charge time is really quick. There are 2 different versions of the watch. I got the wifi version that requires you to connect to your phone or be connected to your home wifi for some functions to work like notifications messages, phone calls, or listening to music via streaming. The other version is the LTE which doesn't need a wifi connection to work, just phone service. You can take calls on your watch either from a bluetooth earphone/headsets or the watch itself or you can send the call to your phone to take it on your phone instead. The only major issue with the watch is the screen is small and a little hard to use for people with bigger hands, especially trying to type a message on the digital keyboard, luckily you can send text/messages with the watch using voice text or a voice message. For exercise you can use fitbit apps that are on the watch like fitbit today for steps and tracking sleep, fitbit exercise for tracking calories burnt while doing a particular exercise, fitbit relaxation for meditation that is breathing exercises. so if you want to track certain things you can. The Pixel Watch 2 is a great smartwatch that only downside is the size being too small but it makes up with its design and features that make it a must have for any Pixel user.

This is hands down one of the best smartwatches I have ever had. Let's start with what you get in the box: You get the watch with a standard band, a magnetic charging cable and extra bigger band. In my case I had to swap the band for the larger one. The charging puck is magnetic, however its not wireless charging, it does have 4 metal pins that make contact with the watch, so be careful not to bend/break these. The round design is great, I tend to prefer these to other square or rectangular ones, round is what watches have mostly been. The screen is gorgeous. Setting up the phone with my Pixel 7a was a breeze, the phone is detected and paired via Bluetooth and you just download and open Google's watch app and follow all the steps to setup your watch (I got the WIFI/Bluetooth model, so it depends on your phone for connectivity or Wi-Fi). Most of the watch settings you can change them within the watch app, however if you want the full health functionally features, you must download and link your watch with the Fitbit app. This is the only con I could see. I wish all the health features were within the watch app. You can use Fitbit without a subscription, however if you want all the functionality you must subscribe to Fitbit premium. Thankfully, Google does give you a 6 months free trial with the watch so you can test this and see if you would like to keep the membership. Many of the health features are ECG, snus rhythm, heart rhythm, temperature etc. For more complete measurements, some require you wear your watch while you sleep. There are many safety features too, like it can detect if you feel and contact emergency/contacts. You can also have the phone contact your emergency contacts if you don't check up after a certain time (like in example you activate this if you are going to be in a shady part of town, or out on the wilderness and you have an accident or something like that..). Battery life is amazing. After a whole day of having the watch on, with notifications etc. I end up at night with around 65% to 70% charge. And this is with the screen on all the time. Google really did it this time with the new processor they are using. Charging is fast too. I also love the mechanism the bands use, its very different from other phones and very innovative and easy to use. I'm going to be trying other bands, but the included ones are very good, specially for working out, they are like silicone/plastic. If you want a modern smartwatch, with the all the latest features, and specially WITH GREAT BATTERY life that seamlessly works with Google pixel phones, this is the one for you. Google really did improve in many of the issues the first iteration had. My only wish, is that Google decides to make a larger size in the future. The current size is fine, but I would prefer a larger screen/watch in the future, that is all. Go Google!

The box is beautiful and it opens like a book. Setting up for the watch is very easy. Just press the crown for 5 seconds with your Pixel phone nearby and follow the prompt then continue setup on the phone. The setup process will guide you to sign in to Google account, install Fitbit app, setup Google Assistant, Google Wallet, install recommended apps and then presents tutorials to shows you how to use the watch and features. 3D tutorials are presented for the top features. The watch band or strap comes in 2 sizes so if you have larger wrist, you can switch out the shorter one and install the longer strap. I like the clasp, very easy to put on and remove. It is very comfortable as well. The extra end of the strap is tugged under the strap of the other side so it is not possible to accidentally un-clasp like my other smart watch band. You can configure to wear the watch either on the left or the right wrist but it also allows you to configure which side is the crown, example you can wear the watch on the left write and configure the crown to be on the left side of the watch so when you lift your hand, you won't accidentally hit the crown. I like the size of the crown; it is such that I can use just 1 finger to turn the crown instead of 2 fingers. The touch screen is sensitive and interaction is very smooth and responsive. When walking, after 15 minutes, it will automatically prompt you asking if you were walking and if you want to track the activity. Battery does last 24 hours. After fully charged, I wear it to bed to track my sleep. The next day went to work, by the time I came home at 9:30pm, it only has 15%. However, charging is pretty fast, goes from 15% to 98% in an hour. Once I turn off the always on display, the battery last more than 24 hours. When I came home at 9:30pm, I still have 47% This watch can measure ECG, just need to download the Fitbit ECG app. For sleep tracking, the watch must have at least 20% charge. Sleep data may take up to 1 minute to appear. I was puzzled the first time when I don't see my sleep data then after 1 minute, it appears. Bedtime mode and do not disturb mode can be automatically synchronized between the watch and the phone. Just enable it in the Google watch app. I like the Safety & emergency app. Medical info automatically synced between watch and phone. You can share your location for 24 hours, you can enable safety check where you need to reset at set time interval else it will send message to your emergency contacts. This watch has fall detection feature, if you fall and did not response, it will send out message to your emergency contact. You can also use gesture to have the watch call 911 or your contacts.
