I had an older Galaxy Watch that works better than the Pixel watch gen 1.

The gen 1 is worse in basically every way because it demands being locked at all times, making half of the reason I use the goddamn thing (to check notifications without using the phone) utterly useless.

At least on the Samsung, even if half of the shit didn't work, I could at least see my notifications. The Pixel Watch prompts me to check the phone more often than a watch ever should. Watches should be reducing the amount of time fiddling with the phone, not prompt you to fucking use it more.
