Apple Watch Ultra vs Google Pixel Watch (Day in the Life)

[@Asthbendriel]

I think comparing the Apple Watch Ultra to the Google Pixel watch is totally unfair in terms of battery life and the regular Apple Watch would have been more adequate, excellent comparison nonetheless.

[@rz9974]

Yeah but if you think of them as the best that Apple/Google has to offer, then it's more understandable. You just cannot get the same level of experience on Google no matter how much you are willing to pay.

[@Asthbendriel]

@@rz9974 no, it is not if you ask yourself how much money it is. If I recall right, you can pretty much buy two Google Pixel Watch for the price of an Apple Watch Ultra, however the Ultra is not twice the feature set, twice as precise or twice as good overall, which even further proves my previous comment

[@billtalbert6165]

Exactly my thoughts

[@dealkill2396]

@@Asthbendriel they just agreed with you? It’s not a fair comparison. He’s just saying it’s more for people that want to look at a “best of” comparison. I do feel like it’s a bit early for this kind of comparison though, like it’d be cool to have a comparison a few years down the line. Like let google have a chance to establish what they want their watch to be.

[@michaelbahu2528]

If anything, though this is a good comparison of how the Apple Watch operating system is much much further ahead than the pixel operating system

[@david.MTB888]

1:42 I have the same problem on my samsung watch 4 the only thing I manage to get it through is to go to settings and go to mirroring device on the watch or it could be a bug

[@Miaugma]

You can rly see the years apple is already in the game and they really know which functions you need

Yup, you can clearly tell how much Apple is ahead of all these other companies and Google is not a small company at all ...

[@visaaa16]

Brooo, come on this isn't fair. You should have compared Apple watch series 8 with the pixel watch .

[@xenofastiq]

I'm more curious to see how the regular or SE would hold up against the Pixel Watch. The ultra is, y'know, ultra. It's not really an apples to apples comparison

[@highofftealeaves]

Isn’t the only real unfair difference between the google and Apple Watch battery life? I think the video is more a comparison of real world use , like paying for things, navigating, streaming music, etc. those things aren’t really unique to the ultra. I think the only unfair thing is, again, the battery life.

[@Earthquake.X]

Once again, the ultra is double the price of the pixel

[@highofftealeaves]

@@Earthquake.X Yeah, but this video tests real world usage - The only advantage the Ultra has is in this video is battery life. Anything else is just due to it being a better watch. The SE can do everything the same as the ultra minus the battery life, so I don’t really get how it’s an unfair comparison in this video just because it’s an ultra as that really doesn’t change anything. Btw not saying Apple Watch is better bc im a fanboy, I’m saying it because the SE would literally be a better watch and this video proves it. What does make it an unfair comparison is that this is apple’s 8th watch, and google’s first - of course their first watch will have flaws because they are finding their feet. I think Pixel has a better camera than iPhone because it’s always been their focus, whereas Apple is still only just REALLY in the past few years.

[@xenofastiq]

@@highofftealeaves Well, that and maybe a couple other extra sensors, such as being able to really detect depth in water. But battery life is the main thing that matters, and when comparing a 41mm watch to a 49mm watch is just insane. The battery size difference that can be fit into a watch that big is what will offer the best experience. Yes, there are some things that should be possible on the watch, such as maps without a phone, but almost all issues that it can't do, but the Ultra can, are mostly software things that can be fixed through an update. That's really my point when I say that it's not an apples to apples comparison. The battery size difference is really huge, and it'd be really interesting to see how it compares to the non Ultra watch. Battery life is really the main thing that people look for in smart watches. Being able to do certain things without your phone would be nice for sure, but very likely isn't something that most people would look for, as there really aren't many people that will go completely without their phone. Another interesting thing to see would be the comparison between speakers on the Pixel Watch vs a non Ultra apple watch. The Ultra has a bigger speaker because it has that space to have a much bigger speaker, allowing for louder audio.

[@highofftealeaves]

@@xenofastiq I mean I’m more saying that battery is the main difference between the two watches. The health sensors are very, very similar with the only diff being yeah the temp sensor, ECG capability. Neither of which were compared in this video. It honestly was a fair comparison as again, they mostly do the same thing barring the battery.

@@ShervinShares so first of all the withings body scan when it finally come out 😅 Until then maybe a day in a life (but with as much tech as possible). Like nest hub waking you up in the morning, turning the lights on, playing the news, telling the weather, phone telling you when to leave for work or a meeting and sending transit directions to your phone. At a glance telling you about next meeting, in the meantime flat is getting vacuumed by robot, assistant showing you best next restaurant to have lunch based on food match (only google), assistant booking a haircut or something like that and so on... Just brainstormed there is much more and different things with shortcuts on iOS / routines with google.

[@jaywhite1141]

Im absolutely enjoying your videos keep up the great work

[@tomahawkjo8574]

I have the Google Pixel watch and the mapping works with the phone off. I can also show the route and use the dial to zoom in and out so i see the actual map and route. It's my first smart watch and so far it's been great! Mine is the lte version.

[@mimime758]

This is because they updated the Google Map app on the LTE Pixel Watch (doesn't work with the Bluetooth version) recently but it wasn't available when he made the video. Learned something new from your comment, I didn't know that we could use the dial to zoom in and out. Will try this the next time I'm using Google Maps on my watch.

[@LC34999]

Spotify works on the Pixel watch. You need to pair it first. Google maps on the watch let's you view the map, if you tap "open". Also, why not compare a regular series 8 to the Pixel Watch? Seems unfair.

[@gabidg12]

When i use maps on my phone, i got it on my pixel has well, i dont know why you dont

[@markdevries5524]

Nice comparisson. Would be nice to repeat this with the current Pixel Watch 3 as it has vastly improved with more options like the Apple watch

[@ChicagoJD]

Love your videos! For me the Pixel would fit my wrist better since it's smaller and would do everything I wanted, but I can't justify spending that much for a watch that may be outdated in 3 years or so. Maybe seeing your Garmin watch comparison will steer me in that direction.

[@GetLostAF]

That's exactly why I moved away from Google. They never stick to anything 🤦‍♂️

[@FPLjunky]

So essentially the pixel watch is useless as a standalone device and at the price point google are selling it at, this watch will be a massive failure.

[@dsoman82]

I liked the video. It's an interesting comparison between an $800 Apple wearable and a $400 Google wearable. I didn't expect the Pixel Watch to offer the same experience, but it's surprising Google Maps doesn't have a more feature-rich presence here. Looks like Apple has a pretty polished experience by now, heading into the 10th iteration of WatchOS I'd hope so! I admire both companies and I love seeing them both playing in this space. Still undecided if I'll jump on the smartwatch boat. $800 is steep for a watch that barely lasts more than a day, and having a $400 watch that doesn't last the full day is worrisome as well. Maybe they should be focused on better battery life for a watch, rather than having it double as a smartphone?

[@mainulh]

Apple Wallet does not work for me without tapping in Watch Ultra other than transit. I still have to double tap to pay at Starbucks by Watch Ultra. Not sure if I am missing anything.

[@b787sotelo]

Loving the pixel watch so far. The way I use the watch (not tracking workouts or using GOS) I get over a day of battery. The only negative for me is the small size & screen. I need at least a 44mm/45mm size next year when they release the gen 2 version of the Pixel Watch.

[@JoeyLegendd]

I'm def wating for gen 2 for the bigger size (hopefully) and for it to be waterPROOF (hopefully). A bigger battery would make sense since it has a feature to wear while you sleep ...

[@PriestPoppy]

Comparig a 1199$ product to a 349$ product like you just did has no sense

[@Roamer5]

You should have compared Apple watch 8 with pixel watch for battery test. It's like comparing Garmin with Apple watch ultra.

[@DanielOrtegoUSA]

I’ve had every model of the Apple Watch as well as the iPhone(s). In fact, I’ve been using Apple products since 1983. However, after playing with the pixel watch at Best Buy over the holidays, I liked it better than my Apple Watch. The design is really appealing! With the cost of the Apple Watch versus the pixel, it turns out to be a much better value, and allows me to upgrade $$ annually! The real kicker for me is that Apple continues to slide lower and lower in terms of software reliability. Conversely, Google software has become much more reliable, and the features are more in line with the way I actually interact with the hardware products. ✌️

[@ShervinShares]

interesting!! what were the specific features you like over the Apple Watch?? they felt very similar to me with a few minor differences + rounded vs square design

[@Di.Iv.555]

Personally, Apple Watch design is better. But the price is unreasonable for the little bit more options compared to Pixel Watch. Apple Watch Ultra nearly one grand and I got my pixel watch in a sealed box for £140 from one guy who got it as a gift with his Pixel 7 pro 😅

[@GwilymJames]

Nice video bro. Cool clothes transition outside lulu-orange too.

[@blkalchemist5645]

Love the video and comparison. I think it should have been the Apple Watch Series 8 rather than the Ultra though. That's what it's kind of competing with when it comes to price and features imo

[@stel1000]

In Greece Google maps app on phone have transit but Apple Maps don’t.

[@Jaimeherediaa]

[@minniespad]

I don't know anything about the apple watch. But I don't think I would own another pixel watch. Maybe because it has fitbit tried to it. Which screws me up everytime.

[@RexLabalan]

Whenever a charge has been denied on the New York City OMNY, with cellphone devices at least, it tends to charge you anyway but just doesn't grant you access. So, I wouldn't make it a habit to use your cell phone or watch to get into the subways yet, at least until they fix that bug.

[@Artichokeee]

Great video and cool to see that you show different stuff than other reviewers too, actually taking the watches out for the average day. I think the sleeping times might be a bug in Google/Fitbit's sleep tracking. My Pixel Watch usually shows me waking up for like 1 minute multiple times through the night, which adds up to half an hour easily. Weird bug I guess, hope they fix it. As for battery life I have been pretty happy with it so far, usually ending the day on a 40% charge after having tracked my sleep and short workouts with it too, but not an intense user and using BT only. Definitely think it could be better though, price is also pretty high.

[@stephenisnor6699]

In CAD; Apple Phone + Watch = $2,648 (or $2,078 for the series 8) Google Phone + Watch = $1629 Google even did a preorder bonus in a lot of places, something Apple never does. Some people got the Pixel watch for free with the purchase of a new Pixel 7 Pro. This is completely unmatched price wise.

[@BruceLeeRoy26]

Ehhhh, here in the US, which is the biggest Apple and Google market, it's only $1800 ($1400 for Apple Watch series 8) VS $1200 for Google Pixel and Watch, but for that price you're definitely getting a better deal with the iPhone. Offering a free watch just screams, "our watch won't sell" and it wouldn't if there wasn't a free watch thrown in.

[@eulehund99]

@@BruceLeeRoy26 If it was for "our watch doesn't sell", this wouldn't be a preorder promotion. It's more likely that Google wants to put a contract between the expensive devices that Apple / Samsung sell to offer a very high value for the money, which would make new consumers join the Pixel ecosystem. Or they can be doing what Samsung does but more aggressive, where they make a high MSRP and make deals, so people see that they are getting a special price and buy the stuff.
