Ever since Google acquired Fitbit, it has managed to improve its Pixel Watch series. The Google Pixel Watch 2 is a great mix of the Fitbit health-tracking features and Google’s tech-heavy smartwatch, and is one of the best smartwatch options available to Android users. Right now, the Wifi-enabled Google Pixel Watch 2 is $269.99 (originally $349.99), the lowest price it has been on Amazon since its October 2023 release.

According to PCMag’s “excellent” review, the Pixel Watch 2 offers 33 hours of battery time, a Qualcomm 5100 processor, a bright AMOLED screen, and a multitude of features, including an accelerometer, GPS, a blood oxygen monitor, a temperature sensor, and others. The smartwatch is rated IP68 for dust and water resistance (you can submerge it up to 164 feet underwater). Its main competitor is the Samsung Galaxy Watch 6, which costs $199.99 (originally $299.99) for the Bluetooth version and offers a brighter display but a shorter battery life (22 hours according to PCMag).

You can take calls with this wifi version, but you’ll need to be within Bluetooth or wifi distance of your phone. The same applies if you want to sync it to your phone. If you take it with you on a run, it won’t be able to connect to the internet since it requires wifi, unless you bring your phone with you. If you want to leave your phone at home, get the LTE version.

One of the biggest downsides of the Pixel Watch 2 is that it comes in a single size; a 41-millimeter screen, which is the same size as the small Apple Watch Series 9. Also, some of the Fitbit health features will require a premium subscription, which is $9.99 per month.

If you like a comfortable watch with a battery that will last you more than a day, and health-focused features like skin temperature and stress sensors, then the Pixel Watch 2 is a good option.
