Big oof: The Google Pixel Watch 3 can't be repaired, only replaced - eviltoast

TL;DR

  • Google has confirmed to us that the Pixel Watch 3 can’t be repaired and can only be replaced.
  • This is bad news for environmental reasons, suggesting that broken watches will end up in landfills.
  • This isn’t the first Pixel Watch model that can’t be repaired, though.

    My pebble’s been running happily for nearly a decade and there’s actually nothing new that’s really a proper replacement

      Hope it sees many more years to come!

      I was interested in a steel but they’re hard to come across where I am - most likely going to go with a Bangle.js instead for the always-on screen, long battery life and programmability
