    That is insane. I always assumed it was way more.

    A fucking watch should not be obsoleted after 3 years.

      For Wear OS, Google does not distinguish between “Guaranteed Android version updates” and “Guaranteed security updates.” It’s just “Guaranteed software updates” that include “Google Pixel Watch security updates, and may include feature drops and other software updates.”

      I wouldn’t mind only three major upgrades as long as the device stays maintained. It’s the lack of clarity that is concerning in this quote.
