Does anyone own a Pixel Watch? Thoughts?

I do. It's not better than the Apple Watch. But it has a good design and works well with my Pixel. Almost feels like the Beta experience for the next one.

The beta experience was my takeaway when it launched. I wanted one then but I was going to hold out for the second edition. Someone just offered to sell me theirs for $150 so now I'm contemplating it.

What do you think of the battery life? Is that a deal breaker for you?

It's nothing to write home about. It lasts a regular work day. But if you're working out and stuff expect a charge in between. At this point I would wait for the second gen. (I got the watch for free as a #giftfromgoogle)

kickstarter edition, still gives 5-7 days charge 11 years later

I do not. My friend does. He loves it. I briefly played with it. As an Android Wear / Wear OS user since day one and owning many over the years, I'll say that from what I've seen, it's great. It doesn't look like a turd like the gross Apple Watch. It's probably the best Wear OS experience thus far.

I'm with you! It definitely seems a lot better experience than my old LG style lol

How would this work with a phone using an OS like Calyx? Are there still privacy features or would I have to wipe the watch’s OS?

I don't think Graphene will run on that... 😜
