I like mine. The battery leaves a lot to be desired but I do use it quite a bit. The coolest feature for me (I know this is standard for all smart watches), I’m frequently wearing an earbud. When someone calls I can check the caller ID on my wrist, accept it and start talking without touching my phone (sometimes it’s in another room).
I like it for runs and the health tracking features are really good. I wish they’d come up with a better layout for picking an app. It’s just a really long list. Something more like Apple’s watch app grid.
If you get one on sale I’d recommend it, or just wait to see what the 2 has to offer
I’ve owned several Android Wear devices since they launched many years ago. I like my pixel watch the best so far, but looking forward to gen 2 with better battery.
I’d say it’s not worth it unless it’s super cheap. I have one I bought at full price that has been in its box since I bought it. Used it for one week to really give it a go. The issues I had with it in combination with the pixel 6 I also don’t use anymore are the reason I am losing faith in Google’s vision of Android hardware.
It’s… fine, I guess. I’ve had several non-Apple smartwatches over time. So far, it’s OK. I had a Garmin Vivoactive 3 before this, but it finally died after several years. I don’t know that I’d buy another one, but I’m also not actively looking at alternatives.
Here I am looking in the internet to see if Pixel Watch 1 is worth it to buy right now.

As for the launcher, there’s Bubble Launcher. Give it a try!
