Battery life. IMO it’s competing against Garmin watches that have 5-14 day between charges.

Definitely, I hope they optimize Wear OS more as battery life is among the main things keeping me from getting a smartwatch. Haven’t checked Garmin watches in a long time but now that I do yeah the Venu 3S is definitely tempting.

I look at the Garmins periodically. They look great, but they don’t have assistant integration, which I think I want.

Are they competing though? I think they’re competing more with Samsung’s watch and apples watch.

Garmin doesn’t have much in the line of smart watches. Their watches are fitness watches.

I think they are. The Venu line is a smartwatch.

Ah okay. I have a forerunner and I’d never compare it to a pixel watch. If the venue is smarter then it makes sense.

I wonder if they’re as “smart” or intuitive though. I have never used either so I’m just wondering.

I have a Fitbit that has around nine days before it wants a recharge. That’s plenty.

I charge my PW2 when I shower, and that works out great.

A minor complaint, but I hope they remove the yellow highlights throughout Wear OS. It’s just unnecessary.
