Samsung’s One UI 8 Watch update is so good, I might give up on the Pixel Watch

One UI 8 beta is already rolling out to Galaxy Watches, and I’m equally annoyed by and in awe of it. The reason is that I was a Galaxy Watch 4 user back in 2021, but I migrated to Google’s wearable when the first Pixel Watch launched. My decision was mostly guided by my desire to stay within Fitbit’s ecosystem, which had many years of my personal activity and health data. Since then, I’ve had the first, second, and third Pixel Watch, and I thought that this year, I’d upgrade to the Pixel Watch 4. The problem is that One UI 8 has so many nice features that it’s making me second-guess this decision.
