The Google Pixel Watch is one of the most expensive smartwatches on the market, but it has recently dropped to its lowest price yet. Today, the Amazon 2-day Prime Day sales kicks off and there are already massive deals for users to grab. One such deal is the Pixel Watch which is selling for just £269 right now. This is £110 off its original price of £379 RRP. This discount means that buyers will save 29% of the price of this device. The Pixel Watch was priced at $350 at launch in the U.S. for the Bluetooth/Wi-Fi model, and the one with 4G LTE connectivity arrived at a starting price of $400. However, according to Klarna, you can now get the Wi-Fi model for as low as $295, and the LTE model for $330.
Where to find the best deals
Pixel Watch deals are hard to come by, but there are a few places where you can find them. Amazon has both models of the Pixel Watch in stock, and you can get them for a starting price of $300 in the U.S. In the U.K., you can get it for just £269 over the next two days. Also, you can buy the Wi-Fi-only Pixel Watch for just £249. This means that the LTE version costs only an extra £20.
You can also pick between a bunch of different finishes, so you don’t have to settle for one particular colour, and you can take advantage of Amazon benefits including fast one-day delivery, different payment options, financing, and more. AT&T is offering the Google Pixel Watch for $5 per month over 36 months, equivalent to over 50% off the cellular-enabled device. Verizon also currently has a nice Pixel Watch deal. If you get a new line and a 5G Android smartphone that is over $400, you will be able to get a Pixel Watch with LTE and pay only $5 a month.
Google is offering $50 off the Wi-Fi model and $70 off the cellular model of the Pixel Watch. Additionally, Klarna reports that Google has emailed some people a coupon code to save $100 when buying a Wi-Fi or LTE Pixel Watch, which brings the price down from $249 to $299. According to Phonearena, the lowest price for the Google Pixel Watch in the U.S. is currently $295.

Features of the Google Pixel Watch
The Pixel Watch is the search giant’s first smartwatch and features an AMOLED screen, Wear OS by Google, and Fitbit-based fitness tracking features[3]. The watch is designed to comply with a water protection rating of 5 ATM under ISO standard 22810:2010 when manufactured, but it is not waterproof[5]. You can use the Google Pixel Watch app on your phone to manage watch faces, settings, notifications, and preferences. Fitbit Premium is your personalized resource in the Fitbit app for deeper health and fitness insights, exclusive workouts, mindfulness sessions, and more[5].
How does the Google Pixel Watch compare to its rivals
The Google Pixel Watch is a new competitor in the smartwatch market, and it has been compared to other high-end smartwatches such as the Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 and the Apple Watch Series 8. Here is a comparison of the Pixel Watch with respect to its rivals:
Design
- The Pixel Watch has a simple and circular design with a stainless steel case in matte black, gold, or silver. It has a watch-like crown and is easy to mistake for a regular watch, especially if you opt for an analog face.
- The Galaxy Watch 5 and Apple Watch Series 8 have wildly different aesthetics to consider, especially if you feel strongly about whether your smartwatch can pass for an ordinary wristwatch at a glance.
Features
- All three (Pixel Watch, Galaxy Watch 5 and Watch Series 8) watches can track your sleep and workouts, as well as support a variety of fitness apps
- CNN claims that the Pixel Watch uses Fitbit’s technology for fitness tracking and includes six months of Fitbit Premium
- A 9to5Google review of these watches reveals that the Pixel Watch has better heart-rate tracking, GPS tracking, and more refined analysis of your sleep and health metrics compared to the Galaxy Watch 5
- The Pixel Watch has a smoother, more seamless experience with Google Assistant, especially when paired with a Pixel phone according to 9to5Google.
Compatibility
- Slashgear claims that the Apple Watch is the defacto smartwatch for iPhone owners, while the Pixel Watch and Galaxy Watch 5 are aimed at Android users.
Overall, the Pixel Watch is an excellent Android smartwatch that is better suited to slightly different use cases compared to its rivals. It arguably looks nicer and has better heart-rate tracking, GPS tracking, and more refined analysis of your sleep and health metrics. However, it only comes in one design and is only compatible with Android phones.
Final Words
The Google Pixel Watch is a strong first-generation device with good looks, smart software, and Fitbit-based fitness tracking features. Although it remains one of the most expensive smartwatches out there on the market, it has recently dropped to its lowest price yet. You can find the best deals on Amazon, AT&T, and Verizon. You can also find decent deals on the Pixel Website which involves buying a phone and getting a discount.
