The Google Pixel Watch 5 is an impressive update in terms of health features and design. With more advanced health insights and a faster processor, it's a step forward from its predecessor. However, the price hike and limited charging options are drawbacks.

Key upgrades include enhanced Strength Training experiences and offline Gemini functionality, making it a formidable contender for fitness enthusiasts. The watch’s domed display remains a standout feature, providing an appealing look and easy-to-read notifications.

The Pixel Watch 5 brings more sophisticated health tracking tools like ECG and blood pressure trends, alongside new Health Guardian features validated through clinical trials. However, the Active Band still clings on, frustrating some users despite improved color options.

While the increased battery life is welcome, fast charging remains a standout feature, especially for those who often forget to charge their watch before exercising. The pricing starts at £319 (41mm) and £369 (45mm), making it more expensive than its competitors.
