Wow, the Pixel Watch 3 looks impressive! 🤩 I’m especially pleased with the increased screen brightness. Now you don't have to squint in the sun trying to see the time.
Miguel
Yes, Annika, I agree! What fascinated me the most was the Pixel phone's camera control feature. Can you imagine how convenient it will be to take group photos? 📸
Lena
Guys, how do you like the battery life? 24 hours with the display on - that's cool! My current hours can’t even last half a day 😅
Pierre
Lena, this is really impressive! And in energy saving mode - as much as 36 hours. True, the price bites... 💸 But such functions may be worth forking out for.
Gerhard
Pfft, another useless toy. Why do we need these smart watches when there are regular ones that simply show the time? All these newfangled gadgets only distract from real life.
Sofia
Gerhard, don't be such a skeptic! 😊 This watch doesn’t just show the time, it helps monitor your health, simplifies communication and makes life more convenient. Progress cannot be stopped!
Annika
Sofia, I completely agree! I was also impressed by the new software features. It's especially interesting to try controlling Google TV through the watch. Convenient!
Jakub
But I'm thinking about the 45mm version. Larger is better, as they say 😎 I wonder how noticeable the difference in autonomy between the models is? Has anyone already managed to compare?
