  • The Google Pixel Watch was one of those smartwatches that despite being highly anticipated, was absolutely trashed and it was never given a chance for redemption!
    *About the screen timeout: when I was working on the video, after I had already shot it, I updated everything (you can see me doing it in the video), and then the 5-second timeout was not available anymore! :(
    So you can just change it to 10 seconds.
    **About ECG: please beware that in order to use the ECG app you shouldn't be pregnant or under 22 years old. Some other restrictions might still apply, for example if you have a pace maker or you already know that you have aFib, etc.

    Hey Pixel watch owners! Can you confirm that your watch doesn’t have the 5-second display timeout option? I ran some updates and since then that option is gone. :(

    I don't pay attention to those youtubers that know everything, I bought this watch two months ago and I just can say it is the best watch I ever had, I got the all galaxy watches out there, I also got the apple ultra watch so I can say the google watch is a just a gem (hardware and software all together right there) a very honest review, thanks.

    The thing we need to keep in mind is the phrase "Planned obsolescence." When I first bought my current Fitbit watch, the battery lasted for 4 days, now it's down to one. Guess what? These units over time tend to lose battery life. That being said, If you buy a smartwatch that is already as low as one day of battery power, you'll be down to half a day in no time. The idea is to get you to keep buying the next new thing. With only one day of battery life, you'll need a new unit way before the next one comes out. The Google Pixel is a great idea, but why didn't they pack it with all the features they had in previous units and beef up the battery life? Instead, they took away features and shortened the battery life. WTH?🤷🏽‍♀

    • @RyansTechMedia
      @RyansTechMedia  Год назад +2

      Great thoughts and I agree with you Niecy! Like I said in the video, I think it goes back to the idea of a Pixel Watch being scratched, then after a few years brought back to life, but without reworking the specs, resulting in a watch without a competitive advantage in the smartwatch market.

    • @cellmate454
      @cellmate454 Год назад

      While I agree, I just bought this watch partially due to it being on sale, and partially because my Fossil Gen 4 Explorist finally bit the dust. It's battery life was terrible right out of the box. For instance, with tilt to wake on, the battery would be dead in under 12 hours when it was brand new. And even at the end of its life nearly 7 years later, the battery life was more or less the same. And I wore it almost every day during that time.

    I hear you on the battery life discussion. It wasn't too hard to whittle down to essential apps, services, and notifications that let me use it as a smart watch while having all-day battery life. Thanks for the tip on enabling bedtime mode on the app - I've been doing it manually every night! To be fair, I've only had it for a week 🫠

      I find actually using the watches fitness features as well as streaming music or even using RUclips music offline drains the battery much quicker. Definitely have to charge it at least twice in a day. If it's just ambient on my wrist and I don't use any of the features then yes it will last a whole day.

You probably haven't tried anything than because there are watches that are not only close but they surpass it by a country mile. It doesn't have track back, it doesn't have dual GPS, it doesn't have Blood pressure monitoring, it doesn't have proper step count, need to pay for Fitbit premium, doesn't have 3 day to 5 day battery life, doesn't have siren, doesn't have satellite antenna, it doesn't have auto detect workout.....but sure it's not close.
