GooglePixel Watch 1st Gen (Previous Model) - Android Smartwatch with Fitbit Activity Tracking - Heart Rate Tracking Watch - Matte Black Stainless Steel case with Obsidian Active band - LTE

I've had my Google pixle watch for about a week now, and I'll share my first impressions. I'm sixty-three years old and this technology is something I've been waiting for, for over fifty years. I'll come back in a month and share my experience with it then.It looks fantastic, sleek and thin. It's a beautiful expression of technology and styling.It does everything I need it to do, and it does it well. I'm running the cardio monitor to detect a-fib, so the battery life is pretty short. It's a small price to pay for a good cardiac monitor. If I have to charge it every day, it's all good.I love the screen, and the fact that I can read and respond to text messages and email by voice,very cool.The only complaint I could possibly have, is the battery life, it's very short. I probably need to turn off some of apps I have running. Other than that, I'm loving the new watch. It is very cool!EDIT : after the watch did all the updates, the battery life improved dramatically. I easily get two days of use per charge. It charges very quickly (in about an hour) and I am very pleased with my decision to purchase a Google pixle watch!

Update: The battery life on this is terrible. Barely could go a whole day on one charge. I don't use all of the features so I just shut off all the things I don't need. I also turned off the tilt to wake feature and it seems to have helped. I got it for the price and because my other Fitbit was dying, I don't need all the fancy things on it so this is still a pretty good value for my needs.So far so good. Huge upgrade from my Fitbit inspire for a great price. Looks even better in person. Took a bit to navigate and had to move my Fitbit account to Google but so far so good.

Battery life is the only thing I was really worried about when I bought this. Does everything I want it to do.Update:I've had this watch for about four days now and found out a few things. LTE and WiFi use a god awful lot of battery. I ran multiple tests with the battery on this watch and think they would be beneficial to provide in a review.Test Results:• Battery Charging TimeThe watch was completely dead when I opened the box. Went from 0 to 50% in less than a half hour and finished it's charging in about another half hour. In total charging from 0 to 100% was about an hour.• Battery LifeWhen I had LTE and WiFi on, It used a whole lot more battery life than it did with it only when needed, or off. All of these battery tests were run from 5:30 AM to 5:30 PM. With LTE and WiFi on all day I was left with about 15 precent left. With LTE and WiFi on only when needed, I was left with about 40 precent left. With it off all day, (Only Bluetooth was on) I was left with 60 precent. When I ran these battery life tests, tilt to wake was off to save battery. Your personal results may vary depending on usage.* BATTERY TESTS END HERE *--- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---My Review:• QualityWatch feels very high quality. Came in a really well packaged box. Felt really nice to open.• PersonalizationYou are able to change out bands you buy aftermarket, or from the Google store. My recommendation is to buy aftermarket bands. Google's bands are overpriced. You are also able to change the watch face and color (depends on face) to your liking.• SetupSetup was very seamless. It was really just clicking buttons and agreeing to TOS and things like that. With eSim activation it was very seamless with Google Fi. If you use any other service providers. I don't know how that will work.• LTE Costs?With Google Fi, there is no extra cost to adding your watch to your plan. (Max. of 1 watch per user on plan) Verizon, T-Mobile, AT&T, and other mobile providers costs may vary. I recommend for you to create a customer service ticket before buying this watch with LTE if you use anything else other than Google Fi.• Emergency FeaturesWear OS 4 on the Pixel Watch includes fall detection, safety check, SOS, Medical Info Access, and Emergency Sharing for your safety and protection. For more information about what those features are, I recommend for you to visit the Google page for the Pixel Watch.• Apps FunctionalityApps are fairly smooth. Pixel Watch comes with a 6 months fitbit premium trial. Both apps setup is fairly smooth. Fitbit is also a part of health Connect for Pixel phones so it will link up with other fitness apps you have for your phone or watch.

This is the first Google version of the Pixel watch, so it's way cheaper, but new, not renewed.The improvements on the latest did not appeal to me so I think this was a great purchase.The newest has some new and more precise sensors they say, and a battery that lasts a little longer between charges but it depend son how you use it so if you are with the screen ON all the time fooling arround with it, it won't last as predicted.All versions can run the latest software so that's a plus.For my use I think the battery on this one lasts enough, more than two days.It is easy to charge as it's magnetic and it charges really fast so it's absolutely not an issue.I like the style very much, I like the smaller size on this than most watches, the polished stainless steel case and a flatter glass dome than the newer ones.All in all, this is just perfect.
