Google has made it clear that the Assistant era is over . The company has been hard a work replacing Assistant with Gemini on phones, but the change is also expected to come to headphones, smartwatches, tablets, and cars. We found evidence of the tech giant preparing for the swap on Wear OS devices back in January. However, Google Assistant won’t just disappear from Wear OS smartwatches; Fitbit smartwatches are also losing the virtual assistant, and that change will start soon. On the Fitbit co

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority As much as I lean on my smartwatch to track my general fitness, I rely heavily on its notification features to keep me abreast of pertinent info. It’s an essential extension of my smartphone, especially when the latter is stowed away in my pocket. It’s not permanently glued to my person, though. I occasionally remove my watch to allow my skin to breathe, as I’m sure most of our readers do. Problematically, I often forget to put it back on. Considering the flo

Look at every smartwatch buying guide on the internet. I guarantee they’re either divided into separate guides for iOS and Android, like The Verge’s, or include categories like “Best for iPhone owners” or “Best for Android.” (Also, like The Verge’s fitness tracker guide.) It wasn’t always this way. Five years ago, you could buy a Samsung or Fossil smartwatch and use it with an iPhone. The problem was it was never quite as good. Apple Watches were superior, not only because they could seamlessly

I have the two Pebble smartwatches I purchased starting in 2013 and also backed the Pebble Time 2 watch that was later canceled when Fitbit purchased Pebble's software assets. In January, I wrote an article on the TechCrunch report that CEO Eric Migicovsky was planning to bring back Pebble in 2025, but I thought that was likely just wishful thinking -- I was wrong. Preorder available now It turns out that Mr. Migicovsky was serious, and just six weeks later we have the introduction of two new

The dream of the cool-but-not-overly-garish smartwatch is alive and well with not-Pebble’s new smartwatches, the Core 2 Duo and the Core Time 2. Pebble, known by diehard nerds for making one of the gadget world’s most beloved throwback wearables, is reprising its vintage-looking smartwatches under a new moniker, Core Devices. Aesthetically, the smartwatches remain largely unchanged from the initial rollout in 2013, which is genuinely good news. After all, there’s no need to fix what isn’t broken

It looks like a Pebble, it works like a Pebble, but don’t call it a Pebble. Eric Migicovsky, the original creator of the Pebble smartwatch, just unveiled two new smartwatches — called the Core 2 Duo and the Core Time 2. These spiritual successors to the Pebble smartwatches are available for pre-order, costing $149 and $225 respectively. If you aren’t familiar with Pebble, the Palo Alto-based startup was one of the first breakthrough successes of the Kickstarter crowdfunding platform — all the

In brief: Global shipments of smartwatches dropped seven percent in 2024, marking the first annual decline for the wearables category. Apple maintained its position as the leading manufacturer, but shipped 19 percent fewer devices than it did a year earlier. According to Counterpoint senior research analyst Anshika Jain, Apple Watch experienced a decline in its 10th year on the market thanks in part to minimal feature upgrades in the Series 10 lineup, the lack of an Ultra 3 model, and the fact

On Thursday, Japanese peripheral maker Green House released a line of Hello Kitty smartwatches that are so adorable that I was annoyed by how boring most smartwatches look these days. The budget smartwatches are themed around four iconic Sanrio characters: Kuromi, Cinnamoroll, Pompompurin, and Hello Kitty, who I recently found out is five apples tall and not a cat but a little girl. It’s a fact I still can’t quite over. Notification sounds, and alerts are all made in the voices of each charact
