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 a capable smartwatch option for Android users even in 2025. After Google announced the Pixel Watch 3 along with the Pixel 9 and Pixel Buds Pro 2 last summer, the predecessor received a hefty discount. Right now, the LTE Google Pixel Watch 2 is $199.99 (originally $399.99 at release), matching the lowest price it has been on Amazon since its October 2023 release, according to price-checking tools .
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 $234.99 (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 LTE version, and you won’t need to be within Bluetooth or wifi distance of your phone to use all of its features. If you take it with you on a run, you’ll be able to leave your phone at home and you can still listen to your music, take texts, or calls.
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.
