Loos of Pulse Detection and Other Smart Features

With all the proprietary flagship sensors, the Pixel Watch 3 Pro has some life-saving features. It can detect the loss of pulse through the heart rate and other sensors. If there is no sign of motion from the user, it will call the emergency services, thus, proving itself as a life-saver. Besides that, you can set custom program workouts and it will buzz when you are not hitting your target for an interval. Then, there is 'Morning Brief" which provides summarized results of your sleep, and other health metrics, weather, and your goal progression. Seeing an AI-generated workout suggestion based on your recent workouts gets more interesting on the Pixel Watch 3.
