    Great watch, not so great battery life

    Overall, I love this watch. Super clean look, When paired with a Pixel phone, it works flawlessly. The few things keeping this watch from being 5 stars is the bezels are quite wide but are hidden well when using watch faces with a black background. Also, the battery longevity is one of the worst when compared to other smart watches. This will run about 36 hours on a full charge. Basically, you'll need to charge this up every night before bed if you wear it to track your sleep. On the plus side, it charges to full within about 20-25 minutes.

      Hi Romans10Nine, we’re thankful for your feedback on Pixel Watch, and we’re glad that you love it. We appreciate you for pointing out some of its rich features, and we hear your concerns about its bezel and battery life.

      The new Google Pixel Watch is a fully featured smartwatch with LTE capabilities, a bright display and robust haptics. These features require additional power over what is needed for other devices, but also provides helpfulness and health insights even when you don’t have your phone on you (LTE only). Maximum battery life is approximate and is based on testing using pre-production hardware and software. Use of certain features will decrease battery life. Battery life depends on features enabled, usage, environment and many other factors. You can turn on Battery Saver when your Google Pixel Watch battery gets low. Please note while Battery Saver is on, the "Always-on screen" and "Tilt-to-wake" feature will be set to Off. Learn some tips to help your Google Pixel Watch battery last longer here: https://support.google.com/googlepixelwatch/answer/12742648

      Your feedback about the bezels goes a long way, and we’ll share this with the right team for future improvements. We hope you’re enjoying all the smart features, and if you run into any concerns about the Pixel Watch, simply let us know by visiting us here and we’ll gladly help: https://support.google.com/googlepixelwatch/gethelp madebygoogle

    Excellent watch. The battery just makes it to 24 hours for me but it has 24/7 of heart rate monitoring and the sleep tracking from Fitbit is the best the business. I have used Fitbit for years and I am happy Google bought them and uses their health tracking. The watch is very minimalist with a high end feel to it. Unlike Samsung Galaxy Watch which does not allow EKG on non Samsung phones, Google Pixel watch features all work on every Android device including the EKG. Well done Google. Now for a little bit better battery and hopefully a Snapdragon 5100+ for Pixel watch 2....

    I upgraded from a fitbit versa 3 to the Google Pixel Smart Watch. My only complaint is the battery life. I am constantly stuck choosing between charging overnight and losing my sleep tracking or charging during the day and losing the tracking for that time. Otherwise, I love it. It is easy to navigate and simple to set up how you like it.

    One of the best smartwatches I've ever owned. The Fitbit integration with the smarts of Wear Os 3 really makes it a fun functional smart accessory. As for the design, while most smartwatches are copying apple watches design. The Pixel Watch stands out with its infinity dome, it pulls of the edgeless look. It comes with a small and large sports strap, that is comfortable for most of the day. But there is a caveat to the watch strap. If you don't like rubber/silicone like watch straps. It might irritating. But the watch straps can be replaced with Google certified watch straps.

    So far so good. I have been waiting like many for the release of this product from Google. And so far it has done everything I have asked it to. It has a glitch here and there for a second or two where it does not wake or react to touch, but I assume these things will get in worked out. I have had a number of cheaper watches, tic watch C for example. And even a fir bit versa 2. All have slowly deteriorated over time. What I mean by that is features stop.working and for really no reason. I'll stop getting notifications for simple things like text messages. All settings are correct and yet nothing from them. So my expectations are pretty low. So when I say it has done everything I have asked it to, I mean basic items of just functioning the way it says it should. This has done that. The GPS has worked well, running, walking, auto identifying work out has been good overall. I don't ask too much of my watches, but what I have used has been good. The battery right of front was not very good. Charged it morning and night, however, now after a couple weeks of use, it has seemed to get better. Now I get through day and night and charge it while.inget ready in the morning. Works well this way for me. Overall the watch works well, is beautiful, feels incredibly premium and is very comfortable to wear. Much more so than my.previous watches. I am happy with my purchase of the watch, but I would probably consider waiting for a sale. The premium feel is worth the price, but overall, I don't think it does anything crazy beyond any other watch, and probably at this point not matching up to the apple watch.

    Very nice watch with all working features out of the box. Taking one star because battery life for me has been just over one full day of normal use. I would take 2 stars but the watch charges very fast. All features are available to me unlike the Samsung watch's which only provide certain features unless you have their phone. Better than any other watch out there that I have used and very nice looking to boot.

    I was highly disappointed with the Pixel Watch. I truely wanted to love it, but just can't recommend it at this time. Let me touch on the positives and things I enjoyed first. The watch looks great. I do not think it's too small even though I'm used to a larger watch. I was not too concerned about the small bezel given how well the software utilizes the space available. It is also comfortable and pretty easy to use. Even though it doesn't feel like it will hold up to abuse, it still felt like a premium product. I hope they make bigger options in the future, but it still looks and feels great. Now my negative experiences: After setting up the Pixel Watch, there were a total of three instances where I loaded the Watch app on my phone and upon opening the app, I was prompted to agree to the terms of use for the watch (a second time). The first two times this happened, I thought it was strange that I was being asked to agree to the terms again, so each time I pressed the back button on my phone and each time, that action factory-resetted the watch. I'm assuming when you don't agree to the terms, you can't use the watch. That makes sense. But it made no sense to be prompted with the terms a second time after using the watch for hours. I never figured out why it had this issue, but on the third occasion this happened, i just agreed to the terms the second time and the app stayed locked up for about 5 minutes. A reboot of the phone seemed to fix the issue and I didn't have the problem after that. For reference, I use a Samsung Note 20 Ultra. Lastly, the battery life...yes, it was terrible in my experience. I did a lot of reading on the topic of the battery life and convinced myself that like many have reported, giving the watch a week or so to learn my patterns of use would train the battery. I did notice minor improvements, but overall, my life with this watch felt like the equivalent of driving home or to work on a nearly empty gas tank wondering if I was going to make it home. If was running low on fuel in my car, I'd start shutting things off (A/C or heater) just to save fuel in hopes of making it home. This watch is no different. You will likely have to compromise somewhere: Disable always on, tilt to wake, Google assistant, etc. These are the types of tips many give and while they are somewhat helpful, I found that I still just checked my battery life gauge throughout the day and barely got to use or enjoy the watch. I was incredibly disappointed. For the past few years before they officially announced this watch, I would occassionally check to see if there was news on the Pixel Watch. So I was the guy who was super excited when I finally learned they were releasing a Pixel Watch. My hope is that they vastly improve the battery life of the Pixel Watch 2 and allow us to use all the available features without compromise. When I considered the prospect of charging the watch sometimes 2 times a day on a regular basis, I quickly came to the conclusion that this was unacceptable and could not keep the watch in its current state. I ended up returning it and opting for the Samsung Gear 5 Pro. Without "training the watch" on my battery usage, I'm easily getting over 2 days of charge with regular use before I need a charge. I was really rooting for Pixel Watch to replace my last Samsung Watch, but after using the Pixel Watch, I quickly learned that the Samsung Watch is still a better option for me. I'm rooting for the success of future version of this watch, but I cannot recommend it.

    Really wanted to love this. Purchased it in preorder with the Pixel 7 Pro. First off, I love the way the watch looks with it's curved/circular body. The UI is beautiful. However it has a lot of drawbacks that I'm not too fond of: There's some relatively large bezels on this watch that doesn't blend so well except with certain black hues. On top of that, the display isn't so efficient with the battery so it drains fast. There as been WearOS watches with dual-displays for years now so you could have the Always-On feature enabled without it pulling much battery but they didn't implement that here. I routinely put it in theater mode because the battery drains so quickly (usually before mid-day). The Heart rate feature is anything but accurate. On top of all of this, it is also expensive. After all the excitement I had for this to release, it is greatly disappointing.

    I haven't been this excited about the design of a watch since the original Moto 360. It is a bit small but it's very comfortable and light. The screen size is fine for me and the bezels are not really an issue. I've not had it long enough to really get a feel for the battery life and it's unfortunate that I cannot turn off the heart rate monitoring. It's a very responsive watch though- no lag really well swiping through the interface and the Google command is really good. Overall happy with my purchase. I just wish some of the bands were in stock.

    Loved the watch, especially so that I could go for runs without my phone and it would use GPS to track my mileage and pace using Strava. However the water resistant description I found misleading since when I went underwater with it in a shallow pool for a little while it totally broke the watch and Google didn't do anything to make it right.

    For a 1st run at it, this watch was very well done. Been an iPhone and Apple Watch person for many many years but I honestly love the Pixel lineup and won't be going back to Apple. Only knocks on this watch is battery life and it's in part related to the other knock, too small for my preference but they're not dealbreakers. Give it a go.

    Just an Apple Watch wannabe

    Up until about a few months ago, I used to own both an Apple iPhone as well as an Apple Watch. Everything was top notch and at the best of the class because just about everything that comes from Apple just because that’s how Apple does things. I wanted to cut some of my expenses and happened to sell both my iPhone 14 Pro Max, as well as my Apple Watch and ended up buying both a Pixel 7, and Pixel Watch to go with it. Long story short, I still regret that decision to this day, and went back to Apple again, The biggest problem with the Google Pixel Watch is the less than favorable battery life. When I had my Apple Watch, I could easily get by for about two days between having to charge it again. With the Google Pixel Watch, I was lucky to get a full day out of the watch without having to put it back on the charger. This varied by both the fact that the always on display was enabled, as well as the amount of exercise that I participated in during the day. After a few hours of exercise walking around my town, the battery life was down so much that I had to charge it during the day to have enough energy for my sleep tracking during the night. Then after I got up, I had to charge it again just to make it through the whole day. Despite all this, owning the Pixel watch after coming from an Apple Watch is quite a bit disappointing when it comes to functionality and usefulness when it comes to app integration, and the amount of apps available for the Pixel watch. The Google play store has a very limited selection of apps to use on the watch as compared to what you can get from Apple. Then comes the problems that everyone needs to know about if they’re thinking of buying one of these.Besides the handful of bugs that seem to plague the Android ecosystem, getting a full charge from the watch, at times took more than four hours to fully charge the watch. It seems that charging slows to a crawl after an update to the watch is released. I had discovered this on several occasions where the watch would still be at 50 percent, or so, even after all night. You have to restart the watch to get it to return to its normal charging state. Another huge issue is how you attach the bands. To do this, you have to press the small buttons on the top and bottom sides of the Watch. After pressing these buttons, the band usually came off rather quickly. Getting it back on, is quite a challenge. You have to line it up perfectly to get it to attach properly. I ended up missing so much, that I scratched the sides of the watch in the process. To be quite honest, you should definitely think of buying this watch before you happen to do so. This watch has plenty of things wrong with it. The first thing is that the battery life is subpar, along with the fact that it’s not an Apple Watch. Besides the lack of apps available, having to pay an extra fee for Fitbit access makes it much more expensive than it should be.

    I've been rocking this watch for just over 2 years now. It still runs as good as the day I bought it. Battery life is still strong. Never have connectivity issues. It tracks my Fitbit stats great and helps me track incoming emails and messages much easier than pulling my phone out every 5 minutes. One of the best purchases I ever made.

    I did a lot of research before getting this watch. I wanted a really good smartwatch that would not only give me notifications but also would compliment my workouts (Orangetheory). I was leaning towards the Garmin Vivoactive but since I don't wear a watch while I sleep, I went with the Pixel. If you want a watch that you will track sleep with, then you may want the Garmin. Only because the battery life is so good on that one. With that being said, I am very happy with the Pixel watch. I find the heart rate monitor on the watch matches my wearable monitor almost exactly. It's very comfortable on my wrist and I've had no issues with it. I do not find the Fitbit premium issue something I care about (the fact that it's not included). I recommend this as a really great fitness smartwatch as long as you are fine charging it every day. I just put it on the charger at night. Again, if you are looking for sleep tracking, while I have heard it does it really well, I would consider the Garmin first.

    Our entire home is set up as a Google Smart home. And we absolutely love it. I have a Google Pixel phone, Google pixel watch, we have a Google doorbell, Google security cameras, Nests, and hub Max's and everything integrates seamlessly. I can control nearly everything just from my watch. I know a lot of people are hesitant because of the smaller watch face and the bezelled edge, but these are features I genuinely ended up not minding at all. I highly recommend this watch. People ask me about it all the time I will always hype Google products. I find the band quite comfortable, but there are other textures of wristbands if you don't prefer it. The watch comes with two different bands for larger and for smaller wrists and is easy to fasten. I work in a factory and I'm constantly banging my watch around and hitting things and scraping it on things and it does not have a single scratch on it and I do not have a screen protector on it. The battery will last about a day and a half two days for me but I'm constantly using my watch. Consistently tracking my steps and texting people on and off all day
