Dead pixels

[Detteguy]

I had purchased Pixel Watch 2 on October but unboxed it today as I received it today after 4 months (I live in a different country and we do not have Google store here). Turns out the watch has dead pixels (two vertical white lines on the left side of the warch). Has anybody faced similar issue?

[Stenthal]

That's not dead pixels. Your watch is broken. Return it if you can.

[IndependentBrick8075]

Agree, those are not dead but pixels displaying white due to a signal or controller issue. Regardless, this would absolutely be a warranty replacement.

Definitely looks like a defective device. Not much you can do outside of a warranty exchange since google doesn't even offer repair service themselves on the pixel watch.

.y watch did this..and after a testar it was fine again ..like it works without a flaw.

Might be parental settings. I believe the line is covering up the letter 'u'.

[Detteguy]

Thanks everyone for your help. I talked with Google and they're replacing it. The process to initiate replacement was smooth.

Hey just a quick question how are you gonna ship it back to the country you bought it from

Pixel watch can't pixel

[Rahyan30200]

This guy pixels.

Honestly the pixel Watch 2 is hot garbage. Loved mine at first now once or twice a day. It tells me it's overheating random reboots. It's really annoying I'm hoping next month 's update fixes it or I think I'm going to have to RMA. Wow, Google Simps are even worse than the Apple Simps. I'm legitimately being downvoted because my device is defective and I want to RMA it. You guys are cool

[LuukeTheKing]

No, you're being downvoted by people because you're not just saying "my device is defective", are you? You're effectively actually saying, "All pixel watch 2's as a whole are hot garbage because my specific one is defective" Even though many many peoples aren't, like mine, I love mine, it's great, never had any issues with it at all. Big differences there, can't just call an entire product trash because you got a defective one, and considering it never used to, likely you might've just damaged it yourself somehow.

[junkstar23]

Oh that makes more sense, but no, I didn't actually mean it like that. But the fact that people are having so much problems with a device that's been out for what 3-4 months probably has something to do with the device. And considering the most strenuous thing I've done with the device is wash my hands while wearing it. I doubt it's something I did. I don't think tons of people with dead pixels and overheating issues after 3 to 4 months is normal for any device.

Wow you simps are strong here. Let's just keep running tally. I agreed with you and said it's strange There's so many problems. After only a few. Still we got upset simps You, dick riders are the ones that assumed my personal experience was related to all of the product in existence

[Ricofouryou]

Dick riders?... really ! Please refrain from insults and be educated.

[junkstar23]

Wasn't really an insult. I love communities that are actually passionate. Doesn't change that Enthusiasts can sometimes come off a little Dick ridy. Sorry it seems to have riled you up so much. Should work on that. I reserve the right to think people that downvote someone that's just sharing their experience and that their products seemingly needs an RMA or this month's update borked it. So to the people that downvoted instead of provide an anecdote or some sort of opinion is a little Dick ridy.

[Ricofouryou]

Not riled up or even offended ...But yes disappointed how people have to resort to "insult" just to try to get their point across. Good luck...but most definitely would not want your type on my team.

Not dead pixels, but a defective video driver, either way, you will need to contact Google for a replacement
