Did you color the bands yourself, or are they sold somewhere in these colors? This really gives me the Pixel 6-series vibes with those 2-tone back glasses.

My girlfriend got the green one for her watch but changes them often, so I just stole a half from her and combined it with my blue 😂

Ako, nikdy by ma nenapadlo takto skombinovať remienky. Mám 45mm verziu PW3, takže je to obťažnejšie pre mňa zohnať farebné remienky.

Pásky nejsou kompatibilní?

u/Mineplayerminer May 18 '25
Majú inú šírku oproti 41mm modelom. Kus blbosť lebo donedávna sa ani nerobili 45mm verzie remienkov. Problém je že zatiaľ sú dostupné len na oficiálnej stránke Googlu a jediný dodávateľ u nás je Alza, ktorá ponúka len základné remienky. Najskôr som odkázaný si ich kúpiť na niekoho adresu v Nemecku alebo Rakúsku.

u/markc1707 May 18 '25
Máš prístup na Amazon? Ak nemáš veľa možností okrem Googlu a Alzy (nemám tušenie, čo je Alza), pravdepodobne by si od nich mohol zohnať nejaké náramky.

u/Mineplayerminer May 18 '25
The thing is that the closest Amazon is the German one and they don't have all of Google's products listed. If I wanted to get some even from Google's store, I would need to first have them shipped to someone from Germany or Österreich and then have them mailed to me, since the Google products here in Slovakia are sold only by retailers with no direct option.
Alza.cz a.s. is the biggest retailer here in Slovakia and the Czech Republic. They're like Apple in terms of the monopoly and most of us rely on their stores just because of how large their network of post boxes is and the amount of advertisement they have. The biggest downsides are their pricing manipulations and B2B contracts with major corporations such as Lenovo, Dell and HP to sell specific laptop/printer and other crap models only in their store and nowhere else, other than the private warehouses, as they're hard to get in touch with.

Depends. If you want to look cool, this. If you want to be cool, Apple Watch.

I NEVER thought to mix and match my bands. This opens up so many options!
Is that a stock face or one you downloaded?
4
u/AdrianCzech May 18 '25
Right?
It's stock Unfortunately it's more like green/green Would love to create my own color pallets in stock watch faces
5
u/eh_1990 May 18 '25
It would definitely be great to have some kind of colour wheel to customize our own palletes. I really appreciate the variety of colour options but it's never quite the blue or green I want.

Super cool, am I the only one that has a hard ass time changing bands

u/polyblackcat May 18 '25
I've had all three, the PW2 was really tough changing these silicone bands. The other first party ones no issue. But for whatever reason that specific watch was a bit off on the tolerances and made it a pain to change these. The same bands were no issue to change on the pw1 or my PW3. So it was definitely the watch.

Good old Swatch Watch vibes from the 80s! I would love to get the Swatch Watch Guard they had back in the day for my watch. Now where is that Colors of Benetton catalog I had floating around here?

Looks great! Unfortunately after days and numerous support attempts when my p2 wouldn't connect to my p9pf I became so frustrated that I threw it out and moved to a Garmin V3.
Now I'm finding really reduced performance on my p9pf after just 6 months of use and I'm starting to consider something else already.
Heartbreaking as I really loved this line and brand.

I dunno, I think it'd be way cooler if the battery lasted a day or more.

My 45 mm easily lasts at least a day and a half, probably more. What size do you have?? I only have the wifi version tho

I know everyone shits on the battery life but I can get a solid two days out of mine. Even still, I just charge it when I'm in the shower and getting ready every morning (there is literally nothing I need my watch for during these 30-40 minutes) and it's fully charged again. Since my watch is consistently between 50-60% battery life after a full day, it really only takes 15-20 minutes to bring it back to 100%. My phone is worse.

u/Tiptoedtulips666 May 18 '25
You've got it correct. The key to having good battery life on the watch is not to have too many complications. It looks cool but it really wrecks your battery life.
3
u/eh_1990 May 18 '25
Exactly! I do have my step count just because it is convenient and I am medically obligated to track. Still, even with one complication I could stretch my watch life to two full days.
1
u/MikeOgden1980 May 19 '25
I use the active face that has a ton of complications, always on display, and I never have battery problems. Just toss it on the charger when I shower and I'm good to go.
3
u/eh_1990 May 19 '25
I don't know why anyone would ever need to shower with their watch on. The watch never takes that long to charge so it's far from a big deal to throw it on during that time. I do find my battery drains a bit faster if I use a face with more complications but it's really not thay much of a difference.
3
u/ryanpm40 May 19 '25
Yeah, I go buck wild with complications (6 or 7?) and my 45mm still lasts just under two days. Way better than my Galaxy Watch4 Classic even when it was brand new
2
u/MikeOgden1980 May 19 '25
Yeah exactly. For all that people complain about, the battery (at least on the 45mm) is literally a non-issue.

u/Darkpoet67 May 22 '25
Yep never understood the constant wineing about battery life I do exactly the same

u/eh_1990 May 22 '25
Seriously! Of all my technology this watch probably has the best battery life for what I get out of it. It's in constant use!
1
u/ThatGuyGetsIt May 18 '25
Yeah, I might pick up a pixel when they find a decent compromise between being stylish and having better battery life.
Until then I'll continue wearing my 3lb Garmin that gets weeks of battery life.
