Yeah, more customization of watch faces is a big plus for the PW. The problem for me is I rely on the complications a lot and if they’re just not available, the watch face becomes sort of irrelevant without them. I like the round face for watch faces aesthetic for sure but find it less desirable for everything else. We have square or rectangular interfaces in everything else with use for a reason and a round watch faces is a compromise for text.Battery life is crazy gooooood on the Pixel Watch 4.... doesn't take long to charge, a quick charge can get you to 100%.
And I'm not really doing any lengthy fitness activity with my watch... I'm active when it comes to doing yard work, have a garden that I maintain. I'm big on moving and keeping myself active in an effort to complete my daily steps.... I sleep with the watch. So, I get a run down on how well I sleep as soon as I wake up... which is pretty cool.
And @tbayrgs lays out all it's negatives compared to Apple Watch... but there are some positives when it comes to wearing the Pixel Watch. You get the best assistant on a smartwatch... crazy amount of 3rd party watch faces available to you.

There's something traditional I like about having a circular smart watch... can't really put into words, but I like that. Haven't ran into performance issues... no lag for me.
And yes, Gemini is light years ahead of Siri. I just found I rarely use my assistant on my watch for more than simple requests and commands (adding items to lists, timers, smart home requests, replying/sending messages) and believe it or not, Siri was actually just as reliable here, maybe more so, especially with the smart home. Anything more complex and I’m using Gemini on my phone.
