  • Google has released a new firmware update for the original Pixel Watch.
  • The update has increased the time it takes to charge the smartwatch.
  • There’s no explanation for why the change was necessary.

If you’ve been thinking that it’s taking longer for your Pixel Watch to charge these days, you’re not wrong. Google has slowed down the charging rate of the original Pixel Watch, but not on the Pixel Watch 2.

As discovered by 9to5Google, Google has updated its Google Pixel Watch Technical and Device Specifications support page shortly after launching the Pixel Watch 2. The company has apparently adjusted its average charging speed times for its first Pixel Watch.
