Sorry to leave you all hanging on this one.
I had to disappear for a few months.
During that time, I wore the Pixel Watch 3 to learn its ins and outs.

The bigger displayisso lovely.
It offers about 40% more room for text, images, and, in my case,FlightRadar.
It also sits better on my wrist.
The larger display only makes it better.
Every year, theres a new model.
It usually has the same square-but-rectangle shape, sometimes smaller and sometimes more rugged.
It means youve committed to an aesthetic and chose the Fitbit suite over Samsung Health or another third party.
The 41mm and the 45mm sizes boast the smallest bezels in the lineups history.
The larger Pixel Watch 3 has a 420mAh battery, compared to the 41mm version with a 307mAh battery.
I noticed the difference in longevity between the third-gen and second-gen Pixel Watches during my brief period of use.
After nearly two days off the charger, Im at 43% on the 45mm Pixel Watch 3.
The watch went out about a mile and a half into my route.
Fortunately, I wore theSamsung Galaxy Ring, so I didnt lose the session altogether.
But I felt annoyed when the watch vibrated on my wrist to let me know it was shutting down.
Fitbitjuststarted integratingwith Peloton workouts to count them toward the daily tally.
At least this time, there are some wellness features you dont have to pay for.
The Morning Brief is the latest significant feature addition to the Fitbit ecosystem.
Then theresCardio Load, the primary metric for this Morning Brief.
Wear OS 5improves with every new feature added to the Pixel Watch.
This time, theres a built-in Chromecast remote to take advantage of.
Google Home shortcuts have also improved.
Call Assist is the last little feature on the Pixel Watch 3.
I havent encountered it organically yet because no one calls me anymore besides spammers.
I usually hang up and try calling back, but you cant always do that.
Hopefully, this will mean fewer missed calls from the watch.
Having that extra screen real estate for going through notifications and tracking wellness data is super handy.
