Google Pixel 7/7 Pro & Pixel Watch

Dropped my watch today, it sprang off my wrist when putting it on and fortunately it landed on the crown not the face so no damage done. Pooped myself all the same though.
I did this when I took it out the box and put it on for the first time! Luckily I was stood over the kitchen counter.
 
Pixel Buds despatched today <3 In good time today, too. I threw my old headphones today as they were being a ******* joke so they're now broke. Must be around 8 years old now.
 
Due for delivery today with Yodel. I don't understand why I need to sign up for an account on the Yodel(or any delivery) app to track an item. Just let me put in my tracking number and postcode:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

Now arrived, in the right colour(Charcoal). Immediate impressions are not as good sound quality as my Airpods Pro(1's) but certainly good enough to live with. Really comfortable though with the original attached tips. It's also a really cool little box for the additional tips. Have had to adjust equaliser via Spotify though. Not bad for free, I guess ;)

I received my watch on Thursday. I picked the matt black case with the obsidian band as that was the only one I liked. I am a bit disappointed as they sent me the polished silver case with the chalk band. Functionality seems good and the battery lasts all day but I will need to get at least a new strap for it as I hate the chalk!
 
Received my watch (black/obsidian… sorry mzal) earlier today and so far so good. Previous thing i wore on my wrist was a Fitbit charge 4 and battery aside this is a really solid upgrade. Size wise yes its too small but I sort of knew that’d be the case. Will have to see how battery fares over the next few days but already thinking how the hell did Google decide against letting this thing be charged by battery share via a phone? Lunacy….
 
Watch didn't log my sleep for some reason. Anyone else had this problem?
I did. Turned out I hadn't setup the WiFi connection on the watch. I did find the data eventually so assume it transferred via Bluetooth in the end.
Now I've got the WiFi sorted, my data is viewable as soon as it syncs
 
I'm struggling to see what the pixel watch really offers over my Mi band 6. It looks nicer but in terms of logging, it offers nothing more than my Mi band did and I need to charge it daily vs every 1.5 weeks.

I hope Google issue an update to fix the heart rate sensor, there's just no need to poll it every second, seems like such a waste of power, they should at least make it configurable by the end user.

As a fitness tracker probably not a lot but I'm guessing the Mi band is no where near as good for notifications and more phone like use.
 
My buds arrived yesterday.
Still unopened, yet to decide if I'll keep them or sell them. They did send the colour I requested though which is good. I chose fog :)
 
Would any of you bought this phone 7 pro or 7 if it wasn't just for the free gift?
I get vibes that really sweeted the deal.
