Former apple watch user
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Its definitely prettier than an apple watch. I switched to a Pixel 7 from iPhone 12, so i got a pixel watch. It essentially does most of the same stuff, but apple watch mostly does it better. Still getting used to Fitbit being where your health metrics go. Wear OS is a good streamlined experience, but it feels incomplete. I would probably recommend people to stay with their apple watch unless they're willing to wait for google and Fitbit get more feature rich through updates. Also, battery life is not good.

Potential unrealized
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is still early days but there are definitely some knowns to be shared.First the charging cable is ridiculous! There is no easy way to charge this and there is no included adapter. Fitbit what the heck were you thinking?!?! Second, the battery life is terrible. And this thing gets hot when fully charged and just coming off the charger. This should have better battery life. Now to the fit. Not comfortable.the band has an under tuck that makes it for tighter than needed and when you back it out 1 tab it fits way too loosely. The touch sensitivity is poor for phone answering and the speaker is not quite loud enough. But it has a lot of great fitness features and is pretty useful for cardiogram tracking, fitness tracking and features. This should be a lot better and software updates may get it there but for the price this is not where it needs to be

Posted .Hi there RHODES, thanks for sharing the details of your feedback on the new Google Pixel Watch. We're sorry to hear that some of the features fell short of meeting your expectations.
Your Google Pixel Watch can be powered by a typical 5 Watt power adapter, which is widely used on most Android mobile and tablet devices. As for the battery life, it will always depend on how you use your device. The maximum battery life is always approximate and is based on testing using pre-production hardware and software. Use of certain features will definitely decrease the battery life. A full battery for Google Pixel Watch goes all day with a charge that lasts up to 24 hours to support sleep tracking and other features. Google Pixel Watch comes equipped with settings to care for and help extend battery life. The 24 hour battery life is based on the following usage:
- 240 notifications.
- 280 time checks.
- A 5 min LTE phone call.
- 45 min LTE and GPS workout with downloaded YouTube music playback.
- 50 minutes of navigation (Google Maps) while connected to a phone via Bluetooth.
- The watch is configured with the default settings, including the Always-on display set to off.
We recommend checking the features that you use most and compare them with the numbers above. We've also taken into consideration some of the feedback you provided us. We'll make sure to pass along this information to our product team since we're always on the lookout for ways that will help us keep improving our products and services. In the meantime, we'd like to help you out with any other support needs you may have with Pixel Watch. You can always reach out to our support team here: https://support.google.com/googlepixelwatch/gethelp

Posted .Hey there, CuriousD! Thanks for posting a review. We’re glad that you like the Pixel Watch. We hear your concern about its battery life, and we’ve taken note of your feedback. In the meantime, you can turn on the Battery Saver when the battery gets low. While Battery Saver is on, the ""Always-on screen"" and ""Tilt-to-wake"" feature will be set to Off. For sleep tracking, you will need a minimum 30% charge (about 30 minutes to 50%). Try charging during your morning routine or during your wind-down time at night so the battery lasts while you’re sleeping. Learn more tips to help your watch battery last longer here: https://support.google.com/googlepixelwatch/answer/13579780

Looks great, but why I returned it
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Having bad pixel phones for the last few years, I was excited to finally get my hands on the pixel watch. In the past I have used Fossil watches with wearOS but there always seem to be some issues with capability, so I figured Google would have it figured out on their devices....well.... Let me start by saying the round face (although a little small) is sleak and looks great. You will not find a great screen protector as the screen dips in the center then curves out. The Zagg one is way to small so save your money there. The watch feels great on your wrist and the woven bands (although expensive) give it an even more comfortable feel. Here are the woahs. Google has not figured out the Fitbit integration and it's clunky to use. You cannot customize the touch points on the watch faces. I could do this on the Fossil for something as simple as touching the clock to bring up the alarms. The LTE is a huge problem. It will not activate and I spent 8 hours, yes 8, on phone and chat with Verizon who eventually told me the esim was bad and to return to the store I bought it from. Battery life is not great plus you have to use the charger it comes with only. Seems silly that you create a pixel watch that can't even be charged by a pixel phone. For the price, I think Google still has a lot to figure out and I will give it another year or two to see what the future generations hold.

Posted .Hi Eric, we appreciate you sharing your review here. We're sorry to hear that your experience with the Pixel Watch was less than ideal when it comes to the performance of the interface and limited customization for touch points. Be advised, if you have purchased a device in the past and had an inactive eSIM profile that was never deleted, you may have problems activating LTE. We suggest following the steps below that may help:
- Fully charge and power on your Google Pixel Watch.
- On Google Pixel Watch, swipe down and then tap Settings .
- Tap Connectivity and then Mobile and then SIM status.
- If there is an existing eSIM profile, reset the eSIM by going to Settings and then Connectivity and then Mobile and then Advanced and then Reset eSIM.
If you've done these steps or if the issue still persists, then we recommend that you contact us on our Google Help page for further assistance: https://support.google.com/googlepixelwatch/gethelp

Overpriced scratch magnet that can't hold a charge
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Honestly I do like the watch. It looks sleek, has cool health tracking, and generally has all the features that I would want in a smart watch. That said, for $400, this watch shouldn't have gotten scratched up they way it has in less than a week of ownership. It also can't seem to hold a charge. Yes, I bought a screen protector, but they all have a long ship time at this point. I figured if I was VERY careful with this watch that I purchased for ALMOST HALF A GRAND, it could make it through a week without getting damaged until the screen protector got to me. Unfortunately, by day 7, the face has gotten scuffed and scratched up by what I presume to be dust, bed sheets, and the underside of my soft, long t-shirts. I am not exaggerating - there is no way a normal person could use this watch and not get its face scratched up. Even if I wanted to, there are no avenues to get this repaired. I wish there had been a warning about the extreme fragility of the screen. I would have waited for the screen protector had I known. Please heed my warning if you want your watch looking decent after more than a few hours - do not even take it out of the box without some sort of protection. In addition, this watch can't seem to make it through 24 hours without dying. Previous smart watches I used could go through 24 hours, charge while I shower, and be good to go. Now, the battery dies before I get to shower, and it doesn't charge to 100% by the time I'm ready to put it back on. It's clear Google didn't consider the fact that people would actually use these watches in real life. It's a beautiful concept, with a fragile and underwhelming execution. I would steer clear, as this largely really seems like another unsupported, money grab from Google.

I love this watch.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The only issue I have with the watch is everything isn't compatible yet. The Alarms on your watch aren't the same as on your phone, which is a pixel 6pro. There are other apps I can't think of right now that doesn't link with your phone yet, but I feel like it's only a matter of time.

Worth the wait
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.An excellent first iteration in the Pixel Watch that I hope will continue going forward. The battery life is no different than my previous Galaxy Watch 4 and I'm not too bothered at the moment for it's battery life but it is clearly lacking. It lasts in my 5K runs that I do plus with using the watch from 7AM, until charging it in the evening at about 6 to 7PM. Personally, I much prefer the Googly ecosystem as a Pixel user and it meets everything I need and is more seemless in it's use than the Galaxy watch felt. If you don't need a new watch or can spare the hype, I would wait for another iteration to work out the kinks and battery life, but, to support what I've been hoping for some time now, it feels worth it.
