Cyber Week 2025 is over, but many of the great deals that we’ve seen this past week are still around. You can still find solid discounts on a range of 2025 products, including my favorite: the Google Pixel Watch 4. The wearable is seeing price drops of up to 22% off, depending on the model you prefer. After using the Pixel Watch 4 for a few weeks, I can confidently say that this is one of my favorite wearable devices of the year.

The Google Pixel Watch 4 price starts at $350 for the 41mm Wi-Fi version, but it is down to $300 for Black Friday. Similarly, you can get the 45mm model for $350 (down from $400) at Amazon. However, the biggest savings are being offered on the LTE variants, which are being sold at the same price as the Wi-Fi models. You can find the 41mm Pixel Watch 4 LTE for $350.
If you are an Android user and in the market for a new smartwatch, I recommend getting this over the Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 and the last-gen Pixel Watch 3. Here’s why.
I’m not a fan of smartwatches, but I love the Pixel Watch 4 Joseph Maldonado/ZDNET
I don’t usually wear smartwatches because I don’t like having a digital screen on my wrist. I also don’t want to be available to everyone all the time, so I keep my notifications off — but that’s a story for another day.
Unlike most smartwatches, the Pixel Watch 4 is stylish, elegant, and looks nice on the wrist. While the Apple Watch can’t overcome its sporty look, Google’s wearable can serve as both a dress watch and a sports watch.Â
I love the screen because I prefer having black dials on my watch faces. And its brightness goes up to 3,000nits — 1,000nits more than Apple’s Series 11. That being said, both watches are still plenty bright. I haven’t had any legibility issues with the Pixel Watch 4, and I love the contrast on its AMOLED panel.

The Pixel Watch 4 also comes with Google’s most accurate sleep tracking and sleep stage detection to date. My sleep data is presented in an easy-to-understand way. Moreover, it automatically detects my long-walk sessions and registers the heart rate information. If you’re interested in health monitoring, you can also use Gemini as a personal health coach, developed in collaboration with Fitbit, to create customized sleep and activity regimens tailored to your needs.

As a bonus for those who plan to use this smartwatch for a few years, Google made the Pixel Watch 4’s battery and display replaceable. According to the teardown specialists at iFixit, it is the “most repairable smartwatch on the market.” So, if your new Google smartwatch’s battery dies or its display cracks, you can replace it with a new one, avoiding the need to buy a new wearable altogether.Â
It solved my biggest pet peeve with smartwatches Joseph Maldonado/ZDNET
The Google Pixel Watch 4 has stayed on my wrist longer than any other smartwatch this year because of its improved battery life. I’m easily getting one full day of use and two nights of sleep tracking. I charge it every alternate day.
Officially, it is rated to last up to 30 days, but in my experience, it lasts longer (probably because I don’t work out regularly and have my notifications off for most of the day). In similar usage, the Apple Watch Series 11 lasted me one full day, and that’s about it. If you work out regularly and have notifications enabled for the better part of the day, you can expect the Google wearable to provide one day’s sleep tracking insights by the next night.

Google also introduced a new charging dock with its new-gen. wearable. The Pixel Watch 4 also features an updated charging mechanism. Instead of flat charging that required you to perfectly align the magnets to initiate a charge on the Pixel Watch 3, the Watch 4 falls immediately into place with the side-charging port. Its dock is nice to have and charges faster than before.
How I rated this deal
Based on 22% savings being offered, ZDNET’s rating system gives this a 3/5 Editor’s Deal rating. The Google Pixel Watch 4 is the perfect combination of style, functionality, and durability. It looks great, offers all the smart features you’d need on a smartwatch, lasts you almost two full days, and is repairable. It was already $50 less than the newest Apple Watch, and the latest price cut makes it an enticing pick. At $300 or even $350 (45mm), the Pixel Watch 4 is one of the best deals this Black Friday.
