The Google Pixel Watch 5 Smartwatch Is Currently $100 Off.
Amazon has slashed the price of the latest Google Pixel Watch 5 (45mm, LTE) by $100, dropping it from $529.99 to $429.99, its lowest price yet, according to price-tracking sites . If you can live without cellular service, the 45mm Wi-Fi model is also $100 off, now at a record-low price of $329.99 (previously $429.99). Both models also come with a free 90-day subscription to Amazon Music. PCMag calls the Pixel Watch 5 the best smartwatch for Android users , largely because it’s so deeply integrated with Gemini—the assistant is proactive, so it can show you flight information on the way to the airport or suggest a contact number while you’re texting about dinner plans, and a new AI-powered health coach analyzes your workouts with personalized recommendations, though some of its fitness tips are only available with a paid subscription.
Powering all these AI features is a faster Qualcomm processor, which Google says improves overall smartwatch performance by 20%, while RAM is increased from 2GB to 3GB and storage is doubled to 64GB compared to the Pixel Watch 4. As for the health hardware, Google left it largely unchanged, so you still get heart rate and blood oxygen monitoring, ECG readings, skin temperature, GPS, and sleep tracking with reportedly accurate results. However, there’s a catch: this is still an Android-only watch, requiring Android 12 or later, and some of the best AI features work best on newer Pixel phones.
Externally, the Watch 5 isn’t much different from its predecessor, retaining the familiar convex display protected by 3D Corning Gorilla Glass but adding new watch faces with rounded edges. The screen reaches up to 3000 nits of brightness and adapts to ambient light, so it should remain easy to read whether you’re jogging in the sun or in a dimly lit room. As for durability, the IP68 and 5ATM ratings mean you can wear it during a workout, at the beach, or in the pool without worrying about dust or water. Charging isn’t a daily chore either: in testing, the watch lasted up to 56.5 hours. More intensive use will shorten that time, but you’ll still have a good chance of lasting two full days with enough power to track your sleep at night.
