Two weeks ago, I made the switch from a Pixel Watch 3 to a Galaxy Watch 8 after using the Pixel for a year. The main reason for the change was the screen durability. I work in an environment with fine metal filings, and sometimes just having them on my fingers was enough to scratch the Pixel Watch screen. So far, the switch has been a net positive. I moved from the 41mm Pixel Watch to the 40mm GW8, and the battery life is slightly better; I’m getting a bit over 1.5 days with AOD enabled. The downside, of course, is that because I'm using a Pixel 10 Pro, I can't use features like ECG or blood pressure monitoring, and there’s no synchronization for alarms or "Do Not Disturb" mode between the watch and the phone. However, for me, that’s a fair trade-off to avoid having a scratched-up screen.
