Gets cracked screens faster? /s

I got the Pixel watch 1 as a free bonus to purchasing the Pixel 7 Pro.

People compared it competitively to the iPhone and Galaxy Watch, and it came out on top in some cases.

I just don't get it. I can't even set an alarm on my phone and turn off that same alarm on my Pixel watch. I couldn't punch in a destination on my phone and follow along on my watch.

The Watch simply was not finished and it was shipped too soon. I love tech, but I've always had a traditional timepiece. The number of times I've wanted to leave for the office, or go for a bike ride and find my Pixel watch is dead was far, far too many. There's no notification on my phone to tell me to charge it!

It's a smart watch, Google, not a Fitbit. Show me the Smart watch features it can do. Rehashing a Fitbit isn't intuitive. It's just copy and paste.

Does the Watch 1 have temperature tracking? If so, isn't this all... the same?

I'm not sure it does have temperature tracking, unless it's just locked right now.
