Google recently added 15 minutes to the original Pixel Watch's charging time. But this isn't necessarily bad news.
The original Pixel now takes 15 minutes more to charge than it did before. But longer charging times aren’t necessarily a bad thing. They can ensure good long-term health for your battery and device. Previously, the Google Pixel Watch’s battery could go up to 50% from 0% in 30 minutes, 80% in 55 minutes, and 100% in 80 minutes. Now, the Watch takes 45 minutes to go from 0% to 50%, 75 minutes to go to 80%, and 110 minutes to reach 100%.
Wireless charging is preferred by a number of people because of how hassle-free it is. But it generates a lot of heat and has the potential to damage your device. It makes your battery life shorter, affects internal parts, and causes them to fall apart because the overheating results in the glue melting instead of holding the parts together. The Pixel Watch’s backplate falling off makes more sense now and it’s also easier to see why Google would make changes to how the Watch charges.
