By itself, when the software is updated, at least fix errorsat best add new features. Of course this is sometimes unexpected errorsbut only one fix patch cannot be solved more or less quickly. But what we expect less is makes the device less efficientand, above all, completely assumed. This is exactly what happened with the first Pixel Watch to bear Google’s name.
The firmware (firmware) of the connected watch, released in October 2022, was indeed recently updated, which resulted in a problem. increased wait times. And no, this is not a mistake. Google confirms this by updating these times on the watch’s technical page. According to the company, “The Pixel Watch firmware update requires us to review charging times; the new times are what the average user will see.”
Update increases Pixel Watch reload time
Concretely, Pixel Watch will take 15 to 30 minutes longer to charge than before According to the percentage to be obtained:
- From 0 to 50%: 45 minutes instead of 30 minutes.
- 0% to 80%: 75 minutes instead of 55.
- 0 to 100%: 110 minutes instead of 80.
Google does not explain what caused this change. Although the Pixel Watch 2 is currently available, The original Pixel Watch is still available for €319 In the official store for the Wi-Fi version. Superior in every way, the second iteration will cost you €399, always for Wi-Fi model. If the €80 difference doesn’t really bother you, we recommend going for the newest watch if in doubt. Especially after the cooldown is reduced.
