Great upgrade, especially for runners
The Pixel Watch 3 sticks to the timeless, but also relaxed design and upgrades discreetly under the hood. Google scores most points for its software. The Fitbit app provides even more detailed information on health, cardio load and fitness level. Most of it is nice to have. For me, the Pixel Watch 3, like all other smartwatches I’ve tested, remains a gadget. But all the data and analyses definitely make me think more about health and fitness – and that’s certainly not a bad thing.
Ambitious athletes probably benefit more from all this information than I do. They can also look forward to workouts tailored to their needs. Alternatively, you can create your own – as long as they’re running workouts. Other sports are left behind.
Otherwise, the biggest change is the display size. The new 45 mm model is easier to control and makes everything a little easier to read. Even on narrower wrists, the watch doesn’t look bulky. Depending on the model, however, you may have to pay up to 500 francs/euros.
If you own a Pixel Watch 2, the upgrade is only worthwhile if you’re looking for a larger display or want to intensify your runs. If you’re still using the first Pixel Watch, the third iteration definitely offers enough reasons to switch.Pro

The perfect companion - with a small catch
The Pixel Watch 3 LTE is a fantastic smartwatch that I finally found after years as an Apple customer. It is my personal assistant on my wrist and the seamless integration with my Google Pixel 9 Pro XL works flawlessly.
Important for Swiss customers:
An important point that I only found out after my purchase and that Google customer service confirmed: The Pixel Watch 3 LTE's network compatibility in Switzerland is currently only guaranteed with Swisscom. If you have a different mobile network provider, the LTE function may not work as expected or may not be activated at all.
Enthusiastic nonetheless:
Although I only found out about this after I bought it, I'm still impressed by the Pixel Watch 3 LTE. The watch is stylish, offers comprehensive fitness tracking, intuitive operation and seamless Android integration.Pro
- Comprehensive fitness tracking
- Elegant design
- Intuitive operation
- Seamless Android integration
- Perfect combination with Google Pixel 9 Pro XL
Contra

Like
I really like the watch, it is as comfortable to wear as the Apple Watch and I am pleasantly surprised that the Pixel Watch feels very light on the wrist. The functions are practical, the standard is enough for me, if you want something more you have to pay for the Fitbit Pro plan. I find that a bit annoying considering the price of the watch. On the other hand, it harmonises perfectly with the Pixel Phone.
Pro
- Battery lasts long enough
- High screen quality
- Pleasant to wear
Contra
- Price
- Paywall for some functions :-(

Not compatible in Switzerland
Too bad, I had hoped that the Pixel 3 would now be officially authorised in Switzerland. Could be circumvented with certain foreign SIMs. Somewhat surprising that digitec is not actively communicating this.
Pro
- Great watch
Contra
- CH not authorised, no mobile phone provider available
