If you are planning to buy a Google Pixel 10 series smartphone and a Samsung Galaxy Watch, and use them together, you should immediately put a stop to the plan.
On Google’s Pixel Help forum, Samsung’s Community forum, and Reddit, people are complaining that they are having issues pairing a Pixel 10 phone with a Galaxy Watch.
Pairing and connectivity problems
According to them, when they start pairing their Pixel 10 series phone with a Galaxy Watch, including the Galaxy Watch Ultra, Galaxy Watch 8, and Galaxy Watch 7, the setup process stops at the pairing code stage.
Some people who didn’t face this issue or somehow managed to pair the two devices, are complaining that once the setup is complete, the phone and watch lose connection with each other every now and then.
Troubleshooting
Some people say that uninstalling and reinstalling the Galaxy Wearable and Samsung Health apps helped solve the problem. Some say that resetting the phone and the smartwatch is the remedy. However, these solutions haven’t worked for many people. You may try these steps and see if it fixes the problem for you.
The Galaxy Watch models don’t have these issues with other smartphones, including those from Samsung and other brands, such as OnePlus and Xiaomi. It suggests that Google’s Pixel 10 series is to blame here. Many people have pointed out that a recent major update to these phones has introduced the problem.
Fortunately, Google has acknowledged the issue and is working to solve it. Until Google or Samsung offer a fix for the problem, you should avoid buying the two to use them together.
