    That is insane. I always assumed it was way more.

    A fucking watch should not be obsoleted after 3 years.

      For Wear OS, Google does not distinguish between “Guaranteed Android version updates” and “Guaranteed security updates.” It’s just “Guaranteed software updates” that include “Google Pixel Watch security updates, and may include feature drops and other software updates.”

      I wouldn’t mind only three major upgrades as long as the device stays maintained. It’s the lack of clarity that is concerning in this quote.

    I got caught up in the marketing back when they first launched and I bought a moto 360 and it crapped out within a year and never held a charge for more than a day. Never picked up another one and honestly I wouldn’t recommend anyone use these pointless things.
