But can it run Crysis?? The headlines should be about always on display battery life....

Yeah, I literally don't know what market they're chasing. I just want it to last ages, show the time, have alarms and let me pay for things and store my QR codes for store cards n' shit. Thats it.

I specifically opted for the 2 days on my smasnug 5 pro over the prior pixel watch. idgaf about google assistant.

IMO a eInk / transflective display isn't as sexy, but energy-wise they make so much sense to use in a watcg

I will happily buy a Pixel Watch as soon as they release one larger than the current single size. Fingers crossed for the Pixel Watch 3 I guess.

I wish Google could just put out a good watch. The first pixel had a really outdated chip and they're not putting the W5+? For the prices google charges you should get the W5+.

Article says W5+ only adds a co-processor compared to the W5, and Google is using its own custom co-processor instead
