I own an OG Pixel Watch, it's nice and all but the battery drains way too quickly. If it breaks, I won't be getting another Pixel Watch, the features can be mostly cover by cheaper watches like the Amazfit and costs only a fraction of the PW price.

There was an article about a future update in testing that runs using the lower powered CPU that will run most of the time and would essentially halve energy usage. I looked it up since I have the OG watch too and they have the CPU core for it, I have a feeling it just won't be updated by the time that's added.
