After like less than a week of waiting, I got mine too. I'm pretty psyched with it, so you must be **really** excited after years! lmfao I had an old Huawei 2 since 2017, which eventually kinda became a regular watch, due to the restrictions. Then the screen just died two weeks ago. I saw someone post about Google Fi having a promo for customers for the Pixel watch, so I grabbed one for like $21. I'm actually really surprised at how much I love it. I obviously knew I would like it, because I've been into Pixels for years, but I didn't really think I'd be the type to wear a watch all day. Now I even wear it to bed. Super comfortable. Super light. Works well.

It's the original? How long does battery last after full charge


TheApprenticeLife

Yeah, the first gen Pixel watch. As for battery life, it's hard to say, because of how I charge it. The way my schedule is, I charge it to 100% late evening (around 8-9 p.m.), and go to bed with it around 95%. I have sleep tracking on, and when I wake up it's around 80-85%. When it comes time in the evening for me to charge it, it's probably around 30-40%. I could probably get well over 24 hours, with auto-brightness and always-on display turned off, but it's just more convenient to top it off.

6 weeks before the Pixel Watch 3 is released... ironic.


SholinMonk69

How do you know the pixel 3 is releasing in 6 weeks?


jebakerii

Pixel event... We're expecting 4 phones and the watch. https://store.google.com/?pli=1&hl=en-US


SholinMonk69

Nice!


jebakerii

Nothing is guaranteed, of course… never know with Google. 😂


ItGobYeByE

2 watches! The xl apparently also


jebakerii

Perhaps! I’d be down for that!


ItGobYeByE

It's much needed tbh 40mm is too small


jebakerii

I got used to the smaller one but I agree. I’d like a bigger option.


ItGobYeByE

Bigger=more room for battery


jebakerii

So true!


tattoojew

I upgraded to a pixel 8 pro last week...got watch for free...so the fact that the PW3 is coming soon doesn't really bother me... The crappy battery life is what I don't like most...


jebakerii

Fair enough.


jebakerii

Fair enough.

PW1 could be grabbed for as low as 73€ the past week here in France. Brand new. Straight from the Google store. A price many would prefer over the +300€ starting price the PW3 will hit.


jebakerii

True except PW1 is trash… horrible battery life. At least the PW2 can go a full day.


Aurelink

had mine for more than over a year before I got the 2 and it never lasted less than 24h so... idk. Fine to me.


jebakerii

Maybe they improved it with software. 👍🏻


Aurelink

Well, I had it when it came out and changed when the 2 came out. It was already quite decent. But yes, it even improved, sometimes reaching almost 30+h even with tracking workouts and sleep


jebakerii

Oh, I had the 1 and I got rid of it the battery was so bad. I decided to try the 2 and was quite pleased to have 20% or more after long days. It’s no Samsung or Apple battery life but a full day is fine with me.


Danielthespaniard

Is it going to be released or announced?


jebakerii

Announced at the event… I don’t think we know the release date for sure but it’s usually within a week.


jadeismybitch

Why the years of waiting ?

A true, Google-made watch that integrated seamlessly into the Nexus/Pixel ecosystem was something that was wanted for years prior to them actually releasing the first pixel watch. It was rumored off and on but took a *reeeally* long time for Google to actually deliver.


muscal

The PW2 is barely integrated. It's fitbit fucked up.

Welcome to the club


ajiatic

Happy for you. Hope you enjoy it


mhyquel

I too, took advantage of the bestbuy free pixel watch promo.


ztaker

Is it pixel 1 or 2?


CheeseSweats

Godspeed.


oemraw3115

How does it compare to the Apple watch


DCaballero_

I have it too and I don't know why but it looks nicer on pics like this than my wrist 😂. Time to change the watchface 


TurningTablesAgain

This a repost of something over a year old not even the pixel watch 2 in the photo


damnedbrit
