Google Pixel Watch 3 boosts integration features

Pixel Watch

The Google Pixel Watch 3 is the latest smartwatch from Google. It comes in two sizes, 41mm and 45mm. The 41mm model is compact and lightweight, weighing just 31 grams without the strap.

It has a 1.2-inch LTPO AMOLED display that is bright and crisp. The watch runs on WearOS 5 and offers a Pixel-like interface that is slick and fluid. Google promises three more WearOS updates for the device.

The Fitbit app integration is seamless with the Pixel ecosystem. The watch includes a loudspeaker and supports NFC, but not for payments in India. It is powered by the Qualcomm SW5100 chipset, with 2GB RAM and 32GB storage.

The 41mm Pixel Watch 3 provides over 24 hours of battery life with moderate use. The charging puck attaches conveniently at the back, and the system supports fast charging, reaching up to 80 percent in about 40 minutes. The Google Pixel Watch 3 is a noteworthy addition to the WearOS lineup, with strong overall performance, fitness tracking, and ecosystem support.

Pixel Watch 3 integration features

The absence of an LTE model is a drawback, but the 41mm variant offers sufficient battery life and quick charging capabilities. The 45mm model offers extended battery life and a more spacious screen for displaying more text and less cluttered watch faces.

Testing the Pixel Watch 3 over the past month, it impressively lasted two days on a single charge. The Pixel Watch 3 starts at £349 for the 41mm version and £399 for the 45mm model, with an additional £100 for the 4G LTE compatible versions. While the larger model is chunkier, it benefits from a longer battery life and better display features.

Though the Pixel Watch 3 performs well with most Android phones, some features are exclusive to Pixel devices, such as syncing Do Not Disturb and Bedtime modes. Additionally, Fitbit Premium is required to access detailed sleep and stress scores. Google also added numerous workout tools to the Pixel Watch 3, improving its functionality for fitness enthusiasts.

Features like running efficiency metrics make it comparable to sports watches from brands like Garmin. Safety features in the Pixel Watch 3 include fall detection and a notable ‘loss of pulse’ detection, which can call emergency services if no pulse is detected from the heart rate sensor. The Pixel Watch 3 integrates seamlessly with other Google products, allowing control over Google Home devices and even answering the Nest Doorbell from the watch.

Overall, the 45mm Pixel Watch 3 stands out as an excellent Android smartwatch, surpassing its predecessors and rivaling the latest Galaxy Watch. Improved battery life, a larger screen, and tighter integration with Google products make it a worthwhile option for Android users.
