Three appears to be the magic number for Google’s smartwatches. After weeks of testing, I’d say the third-generation Pixel Watch officially lands the lineup squarely alongside wearables powerhouses like Apple and Samsung.

For a full picture, up till this point, I’ve been only marginally impressed with the lineup. I was encouraged by the improvements made from the original to the Pixel Watch 2, but was not yet willing to give Google my stamp of approval. The Pixel Watch 3, however, feels like a truly well-rounded device and a near-perfect launch for the search giant. All smartwatches have their shortcomings, and Google’s latest is no exception, but from the moment I strapped on the new model, I’ve been quite pleased — let’s talk about why.
