This is supposed to be something we wear all the time, and for that, we should also connect with it on a personal, aesthetic level. It also doesn’t make any kind of statement, which, like the small size, some will appreciate, but others will find off-putting. The minimalist, simple circular design lacks flair, and the single size means it will look too small on many wrists in my opinion, it does on my 6.5-inch wrist. The shape of the case back means the sensor always makes contact with your skin, while the curvature means it’s practically unnoticeable. If you want to forget you’re wearing something on your wrist, the Pixel Watch 2 is ideal. I have had no problem wearing it overnight to track my sleep, and it takes just moments to tighten the band before exercising. It’s even more comfortable to wear than the first Pixel Watch, helped by the reduction in weight and the flexible new band. The 41mm case is 12.3mm thick and made of recycled aluminum (different from the Pixel Watch’s stainless steel), and it weighs 58 grams with the Active band. If not, then you’re out of luck, as Google hasn’t changed its mind about making it in more than one size or improving on the stark, overly simple design. The Pixel Watch 2 looks exactly the same as the first Google Pixel Watch, which is great if you thought the first model was attractive and suitably sized for your wrist. Google Pixel Watch 2: design Andy Boxall / Digital Trends The Google Pixel Watch 2 remains a strong smartwatch in December 2023, and if you’re in the market for a new wearable to pair with your Android phone, it deserves a high spot on your shopping list. Thankfully, I’ve been proven wrong about it. Similar to Andy, I didn’t go into the Pixel Watch 2 expecting all that much. Additions like automatic workout detection and a temperature sensor make a big difference (at least for me), and the redesigned Fitbit app looks better than ever. I actually feel like I can rely on the Pixel Watch 2 as a proper activity/health wearable, which is something I never thought about its predecessor. What’s also impressed me with the Pixel Watch 2 is its Fitbit component. It feels a little cheap, sure, but it attaches securely to the Pixel Watch 2 and never gets too warm - things I can’t say about the original Pixel Watch’s charger. I regularly get through a day-and-a-half per charge with sleep tracking and the always-on display enabled. The Pixel Watch 2’s battery life has also continued to impress. And small design tweaks - like the much better crown - go a long way in improving my day-to-day experience with the wearable. The watch’s small size, while not my favorite design choice, has grown on me more than I suspected it would I actually think the Pixel Watch 2 can look quite good when paired with the right watch band. Similar to Andy’s full review below, I’ve been thoroughly impressed with the Pixel Watch 2 throughout my time wearing it. Although Pixels have become notorious for degrading, with bugs and other software quirks as time goes on, the Pixel Watch 2 remains just as good today as it was at launch. The Google Pixel Watch 2 has now been out in the wild for just about two months, and amazingly, it still remains one of the better Android smartwatches you can buy today.
