Fitbit - Pixel Watch (1st Gen) - WiFi

This is already possible on the PW1 and has been in use since the market launch. When I tested PW3, I only got to max 36 hours. So in stayed with PW1.

That's interesting. I was really disappointed and had the PW3 with 45mm but then returned it and continued to use the PW1. I'm rather impressed that she still holds out so well. Another reason is the constant changes to the charging port. I charge the PW1 90% via Qi because my third-party pad is ironically compatible. Now I wanted to upgrade to the latest model this year, but the new charging port makes sure that every case looks terrible or needs to be removed when charging... Hopefully the PW1 will last another year and we'll just get Qi2.

I had a PW1 and it died, just stopped charging, such a shame quite liked it. I have enjoyed not having a watch (interruptions) but missed the tracking of health and reminders to move around. Considering the PW4 45mm, just bought the new pixel buds pro 2, got that for a bargain. Is the PW4 that much better? Enjoyable experience?

All of my Pixel Watches from the 1 to the 4 have done amazingly in salt water, showers, hot water jacuzzi, pools, etc all day and never had any issue. I even wash mine in hot water and soap every night before bed. They're resilient beasts and work amazingly in any weather or environment.

I bought a refurbished PW1 and the battery life gets me from morning to the following morning (with gym, cardio, and sleep analysis). I wake up the next day with like 15-20% left.

How do you get 10h from PW1? I woke up recently, it was taken off the charger at about midnight (not even at 100%) and it's at 81% now. I'm pretty sure it would go 24h.

I've had mine for almost 2 years Swam 3 times no problems Most recent time this summer though water got in somewhere and the watch bugged out into a bootloop Letting it dry got it working again but the seal is definitely broken somewhere. PW1 so your mileage may vary if you get the newer ones.

runner should never get any thing but a pixel 3 Pixel watch 3 has a run builder.

Would never get a runner anything but pixel watch 3. Auto end activity means you get a confirmation. As it tells you if you don't end the work-out will nag you over and over to end the work out. With Text to speech on it very hard to ignore the 3rd time... Why give us NFC garmin if your not going to actualy do anything to actualy get cards supported.

Do you do PLANNED exersize Yes then you want PW2 minimum IF you don't run at all, then no.. if you're a runner, yes PW2 minimum if our a cyclist May be yes. (As updates are coming ) if you do zero planned exercise activity then no the improvements are from high activity tracking You should be worried as the watch 1 is a slower unit and lower battery and has had more issues with the fit bit today app , fit bit app strips features for runners from the PW1 and PW2. PW2 and PW3 has better sensors yes and it why the watch is completely different on the back. IS PW2 better for tracking data while sat at a desk lifting tea or coffee cup while you sit at the desk yes but it over kill. Even discounted these watches are over kill SMART watches not health trackers... so much of then is not health focused.

Battery life is night and day. To say gen 1's was atrocious is an understatement. With the 3, I can go 3 days if I don't do any fitness tracking. I love my 3, but the 3 doesn't compete with the Ultra at all.

I'm still rocking my twice-replaced PW1 (back keeps falling off). My company has an annual reimbursement program that covers smartwatches as a "fitness device", so I'm probably going to upgrade to the 4 when it's out.

If you want a bigger sized watch, take the pixel 3 45mm. Otherwise the differences are marginal. I had a Pixel watch 1 and now the pixel watch 2. As long as Google updates the software of all their models you should be fine with any of these watches.
