Not comparable. This measured a different thing from the number the company published, so the two cannot be compared. Android Headlines reported it on Jul 30, 2024 in The Verge. That was 14 days before Google Pixel Watch 3 was announced on Aug 13, 2024. The assertion is explicitly about what leaked marketing materials showed. The final Pixel Watch 3 specs match the listed 41mm/45mm sizes, 2,000-nit brightness, 24-hour AOD battery life and 36-hour Battery Saver figure, but retail specs do not authenticate what the prelaunch marketing material depicted.
