Google confirms: Fix is in the works for Pixel Watch extreme battery drain issue

TL;DR Pixel Watch owners have been complaining about their battery life suddenly taking a nose dive.

Multiple generations of watches have been impacted, making this look like a software issue, rather than hardware failure.

Google now confirms that it’s identified the problem, and is developing a fix.

Smartwatches are great, but battery life continues to be a problem. Sure, they can do a lot, but what good is all that potential if there’s no charge left when we go to use them? Things can be dicey enough when our watches are behaving as they should, but this week we learned about a new problem that seemed to be affecting Pixel Watch models , dropping battery life from the normal day or two we’re used to, down to just 12 hours. Thankfully, a fix is already in the works.

Multiple reports from owners spanning from the Pixel Watch 2 up to the current generation all shared similar tales: battery life diving even as the watches sat idle. Disabling the Always-on Display didn’t seem to make much of an impact.
