WATCH THE VIDEO HERE Google’s Pixel Watch 3 may not have launched until September, a mere four months away from the end of the year, but it’s still a smartwatch that launched in 2024. It was easily in the running as one of the best smartwatches of the year, and here at Android Headlines, it was our pick for Best Smartwatch of 2024. Google’s Pixel Watch smartwatches have been good since they initially came out. However, one thing they lacked was the option of a bigger size watch. With the Pixel Watch 3, Google finally gave its fans what they wanted. A bigger watch size option while retaining the same stylish design. That alone wouldn’t be enough to give the Pixel Watch 3 this award. That being said, there are several other reasons why it’s our top pick. One of my favorite things about the watch is that it’s now larger in size. I dislike smaller watch cases, because that ultimately means smaller screens. Thankfully, the Pixel Watch 3 comes with a bigger screen this time around, but without giving up the battery life. In fact, it has better battery life than the Pixel Watch 2. It does have a bigger battery, but with the larger display and higher peak brightness, you’d expect the battery life to remain the same. Yet Google has improved it. The nice thing is that you don’t have to choose the larger watch. Google still offers the smaller size for those who want it. So you have options. And that certainly helped it become our pick. Aside from better battery life and a larger display, the Pixel Watch 3 also runs on Wear OS 5 and performs better than previous iterations of the watch. Using it on a daily basis is smooth as silk and I actually enjoy wearing it all day most days. The Pixel Watch 3 gives you options with size, offers great performance, and battery life that will last you days at a time while also charging up rather quickly. This is why the Google Pixel Watch 3 won our Best Smartwatch 2024 award.Google combined top-notch battery life and a bigger display with a stylish design for the Pixel Watch 3
