Google received FDA clearance for Loss of Pulse back in February and is finally rolling out the feature to Pixel Watch 3 users in the US. For those unaware, as the name suggests, upon detecting no heart beat or a loss of pulse, the feature immediately rings emergency services to maximize the chances of saving the victim.
Google has acknowledged the availability of Scam Detection on Pixel Watches. The feature is rolling out to Pixel Watch 2 and 3 starting today, and you can start using it if you have a Pixel 9. It's also worth mentioning that Scam Detection on Pixel Watches is only available in the US and in English language. Since Pixel Watches don't boast the hardware to run the models onboard, you need to be connected to your Pixel phone to use the feature. This is regardless of if you have an LTE or WI-Fi-only variant.

A major leak from Google's gChips division has revealed that the Pixel Watch 5 may feature Google's custom Tensor chip for wearables. The chip will feature 1 x Cortex-A78 and 2 x Cortex-A55 cores and could be based on TSMC's 3nm process, offering better performance and battery life.
Wear OS 5 is now rolling out to older Pixel Watches - Watch 2 and the original Watch. It comes with features such as App Grid in launcher, new Recorder app, improved Pixel Camera app, improvements to watch faces and battery optimizations, and more.
The Pixel Watch 3 has a brighter display with thinner bezels, and gets a 45mm variant this time around with a 1.4-inch display. There's now UWB support with a few new Fitbit features that will probably make their way to the Pixel Watch 2. The Pixel Watch 3 is much more expensive than the Watch 2, and for the less significant "improvements" it offers, it's not worth upgrading to the same.
Google has launched the Pixel Watch 3 in the Made by Google event, and while it's mostly identical to previous year's Pixel Watch 2, there are a few noteworthy features such as Ultra wideband support, smaller bezels, brighter display, a larger battery (in the 45 mm variant), and a few Fitbit app features. The Pixel Watch 3 costs $349 and $399 for Wi-Fi-only, and $449 and $499 for LTE + Wi-Fi.
I switched to a Pixel Watch 2 from a Galaxy Watch4, and I regret it because the Fitbit app is inferior, the watch lacks essential features, a practical form factor, and competitors like Samsung and OnePlus are making better Wear OS smartwatches. One of the other reasons why I dislike the Pixel Watch is due to its extreme ecosystem lock-in.
