Google Pixel Watch review: 3 Weeks Later

3 weeks later, what does Tshaka think about the Pixel Watch? Battery complaints are all but null as he came to some interesting conclusions after a time, and that haptic engine? Chef kiss! But there's so much more to experience in the Google Pixel Watch, including a GPS test in Downtown Los Angeles where tall buildings tend to be the bane of GPS reception. All that and more in the video!

This is clearly the most comprehensive Pixel Watch review! From battery life not necessarily being as bad as most people make it out to be and also 30 minutes to charge to 60% is really good too. You’re the only person that mentioned that you need 3 apps on iOS to get the most out of the Apple Watch. The complaint about the Pixel Watch “fragmentation” is also overstated.

Battery life is no worse than my Galaxy Watch4. Seems like a decent smart watch for a first generation device. Really enjoyed your balanced (pros cons) review to help us average consumers decide on a purchase decision. Good job!

Excellent review and analysis. Tshaka, you've become one of my favorite tech reviewers.

Finally an unbiased pixel watch review. So many YouTubers want to hate this product so badly you can tell in their review. The battery life on the pixel watch is 100% 24-hour battery. The ecosystem is equal to Apples. The ease of use and fluidity is top tier. And the bezels are just as big as almost every other smart watch in 2022. The only downside is the phone quality! Great video and please keep up with the unbiased reviews You're actually making YouTube a better place!

So far, and by far, my favorite Pixel Watch review! Great job!

[kartikniyogi]

Thank you for this elaborate review. I've been using Pixel watch for about a week now and surprisingly the battery is lasting just over 24 hours

1:50 Bro, that image with the Africa pupil is 🔥🔥🔥

Thank you very much for this amazing, comprehensive review! Very helpful without the need for self-serving theatrics. Just a straight-on review. Thank you!!

Amazing review as always!
What's crazy is that Fossil was able to sync the DND after the wear OS update last month and Google can't do it between its own phone and watch!!

Been rocking the Pixel Watch since launch and Ive been loving it. After 6 years of waiting for a Pixel Watch its been nice to finally have it on my wrist

[anthonywilliams]

That Main Source insert though!! 👍🏾👍🏾

[eddiemunoz]

Great review.mate I love the watch. Im not worried about battery life because google will release software updates to improve it. It literally just came out. They'll definitely give us the option to not have the heart rate sensor check every second.

[jonathanlin]

Such a useful review! Thanks for going deep but staying pragmatic.

[mendellalvarado]

Love that Main Source clip! Great video 👍

[ConorCoen]

[johnhornemadrid]

That review was what I had been looking for. Thanks very much man!

It’s okay, and first version so structured advice is what is called for. I want them to make a bigger one, with a bigger battery. That is it, basically the rest is a good start and should develop over time.

[MosesTemu]

Awesome comprehensive review. That tip regarding notifications is something I hadn't seen anywhere. Really curious about battery life with GPS off. As someone who has my phone on me for workouts and doesn't need it on the watch I would be curious if it helps a little with the watches endurance.

I love my Pixel Watch. I use it to train for my next marathon. On Sundays I run 19 miles with music and have workout app on. And I have 38 percent when I get done. My only complaint is how terrible it is at sleep tracking. If I get up in the middle of the night to the restroom it thinks when I come back to bed is the time I started sleeping. However I 💕 my watch and totally recommend it. Also great review
