The Galaxy Watch 5 can also take blood pressure measurements and read your wrist temperature, at least in theory; the temperature sensor has yet to be unlocked by third-party developers, and blood pressure monitoring is only available in countries where Samsung has received regulatory approval — and the U.S. Yes (5 atm + IP68) The Pixel Watch and Galaxy Watch 5 both include an ECG app to help look for signs of atrial fibrillation. Google promises that the Pixel Watch can deliver up to 24 hours of battery life on a single charge, while Samsung claims a staggering 50 hours for the Galaxy Watch 5.

The Pixel Watch should last for 24 hours on a single charge and runs on an Exynos 9110 processor along with a coprocessor, says Google. Similar to the Apple Watch, the Pixel Watch will support fall detection and also has built-in GPS for tracking running routes.

With a rounded face and Fitbit features, Google's first smartwatch has a lot of potential.

The Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 and Apple Watch Series 8 now face a third major competitor in the form of Google's Pixel Watch. How do the three stack up?

Meanwhile, the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro and Apple Watch Ultra are available in just a single (larger) size. The Apple Watch SE is by far the cheapest smartwatch of the bunch at $249 and $299, respectively, for the Wi-Fi and cellular models. The Galaxy Watch 5 slots in after that at $279.99 or $329.99, respectively, for the Wi-Fi and cellular editions. The Pixel Watch has a blood oxygen sensor and ECG, but no thermometer. The latest Apple Watch models (the SE, [Series 8](https://www.pcmag.com/reviews/apple-watch-series-8), and [Ultra](https://www.pcmag.com/reviews/apple-watch-ultra)) stand in one corner, while Samsung's [Galaxy Watch 5](https://www.pcmag.com/reviews/samsung-galaxy-watch-5) and Watch 5 Pro lurk in another. The most obvious difference here is that Apple Watch screens are square with rounded corners, whereas the Galaxy Watch and Pixel Watch panels are circular. They also have GPS, though the Apple Watch Ultra has both L1 and L5 GPS for better accuracy. The other Apple Watch models have blood oxygen sensors, ECG functionality, and temperature tracking. We haven't yet reviewed the Pixel Watch and Watch SE (2022), though our above experience indicates you should take company estimates with a grain of salt. From there, you can narrow it down to one of the three [Apple Watches](https://www.pcmag.com/picks/the-best-apple-watch) currently available, but neither the Galaxy Watch 5 nor Pixel Watch is going to work. The Pixel Watch is simple and circular, with a stainless steel case in matte black, gold, or silver. The Apple Watch Ultra is chunkier but similar in its basic design.
