TL;DR

  • Google has confirmed to us that the Pixel Watch 3 can’t be repaired and can only be replaced.
  • This is bad news for environmental reasons, suggesting that broken watches will end up in landfills.
  • This isn’t the first Pixel Watch model that can’t be repaired, though.

I’ve worn my Series 4 every day since September 21, 2018. My son is still using the Series 3 I gifted him the same day. I bought that one September 22, 2017. I don’t baby my watch in any way

Thought about an upgrade a few times, but haven’t had a compelling reason to do so

How's the battery life holding up?

I put it on at 7 am, it’s 12:19am now and I’m at 37%

And I’m still at work… fml

So not far off 24 hours? That doesn't seem bad seeing as they only say 19 odd hours on a Series 9?

I'm thinking about giving the iPhone a try again. I haven't used one since the 4S. It's been Nexus/Pixel up to now but I'm getting a bit bored.
