While thats true. Im more annoyed that google paywalled features that the gw and apple watch provide for free.

[–] Kraven_the_Hunter 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah seriously. The only reason i bought a PW is because I don't have a Samsung phone which was needed for some of the GW features like SPO2. I'm still not a fan of the size of the Pixel Watch but decided to give it a try. Having all of the stats locked behind a subscription is terrible.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah then with a Samsung watch or the apple watch you need the respective phone to get all the features that are built into the watch.... so stupid

I have a fossil gen 6 and looking at the next gen watches. What pw features are paywalled?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I think a lot of the health tracking stats are locked behind Fitbit Premium.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

advance sleep tracking is paywalled.

Damn that's disappointing. Glad I found out. I have some pixel superfan credit I was about to use on some watch bands.

Don't get the bellroy Pixel 7 and fold series of cases. They are absolutely ass.
