Important functions:

  • 2.000 nits peak brightness: Improved visibility in all lighting conditions.

  • New health and fitness features: Enhanced tracking and analytics.

Detailed information about the Google Pixel Watch 3

Display and brightness

One of the outstanding features of the Pixel Watch 3 is the drastically improved display brightness of the Actua screen. With a peak brightness of 2,000 nits, the new smartwatch is significantly brighter than many of its competitors and twice as bright as its predecessor.

This improvement ensures that the display remains easy to read even in direct sunlight. This makes it much easier to use outdoors, whether for sports or when traveling.

Charging speed and battery life

Another highlight of the Pixel Watch 3 is the 20% increase in charging speed. However, this apparently only applies to the new 41 mm model, but not to the larger 45 mm version.

This means less waiting time until the watch is fully operational again. Together with an improved battery life, users can use the watch for longer, although this should still be around 24 hours with an active always-on display. Up to 36 hours are possible in battery-saving mode.

Health and fitness features

The Pixel Watch 3 will also be equipped with new and enhanced health and fitness features. These include “improved running metrics” and improved activity tracking. These features are particularly interesting for users who want to keep an eye on their fitness and health. Integration with Google Fit and other fitness apps is also expected, promising a seamless user experience.

Design and user-friendliness

Based on the leaked promo images, the Pixel Watch 3 will maintain a sleek and modern design that goes well with different styles and occasions. The round display and high-quality materials ensure an appealing look and comfortable wear.

The user interface is expected to be based on the latest version of Wear OS, which ensures intuitive and smooth operation. In addition to a sports wristband, only a USB-C charger is included in the scope of delivery.

The website also reports that the Pixel Watch 3 is able to interact directly with video doorbells and Nest cameras. The feature is part of WearOS and will also be available on other smartwatches at a later date.
