The Google Pixel Watch 3 is an impressive-looking smartwatch. But is it enough to get me to replace my Apple Watch? It very well might be.
As a regular Apple Watch wearer, I found myself pleasantly surprised with the Google Pixel Watch 2 last year. The hardware was nice, Fitbit’s health tracking suite was solid, and even the battery life was good. However, it was never enough to keep me away from the Apple Watch — my personal smartwatch of choice — for more than a few weeks.
In the Fitbit smartphone app, you can now view the past year, three months, month, or week of your runs for a bird’s-eye view of your running history. Further, you can quickly filter this to look at your distance, duration, pace, or various running form metrics for those same time periods. From there, you can scroll down and tap into specific runs to get a close look at each one. It’s a level of organization that just doesn’t exist in the Apple Fitness app, and it looks fantastic.
Recommend running workouts On a related note, the Fitbit app will also now take the guesswork out of running and provide you with “AI-powered” daily run recommendations. Based on your previous running activity and how your body is recovering, you’ll be recommended different types of runs — such as 25-minute sprint intervals, a 45-minute easy run, or a 35-minute tempo run.
Readiness score and Cardio load Stepping away from all of the running talk, the Pixel Watch 3 introduces two new health metrics to the Fitbit app: Readiness score and Cardio load. You’re given a target amount to aim for each day, which is personalized based on your Readiness score and other health factors. If your body is well-rested and up for a challenge, you’ll have a higher target Cardio load. If you overexerted yourself the day before or have a low Readiness score for other reasons, you’ll be advised to take it easier.
