Adam Kos Yebo, i-Google imayelana nesofthiwe, kodwa kuyamangaza ukuthi sesibone iwashi elihlakaniphile le-Google manje. Phela, i-Wear OS ngendlela ye-Android Wear yethulwa emakethe kakade ngo-2014, futhi yamukelwa izinkampani ezifana ne-Samsung, Motorola, Xiaomi, Oppo, Sony nezinye, lapho bonke beletha izixazululo zabo. Kodwa i-Pixel Watch manje ingena esigcawini.
I-Google ibinezindlela ezimbalwa okufanele izithathe. Esokuqala, vele, sasisekelwe kakhulu ekubukekeni nasekuzizweni kwe-Samsung Galaxy Watch4 ne-Watch5, njengoba zisebenzisa uhlelo lokusebenza olufanayo. Eyesibili, naleyo i-Google ekugcineni eya kuyo, ngokunengqondo idonsa okwengeziwe ku-Apple Watch. Uma ubheka zombili izinhlelo, zifana kakhulu, ngakho-ke kungani ungalethi enye i-Apple Watch ku-Android?
Igalari yezithombe
Ngakho-ke ukwakheka kwe-Pixel Watch kubhekisela ngokucacile kakhulu ekumeni kwewashi le-Apple, ngisho noma linekesi eliyindilinga. Kukhona umqhele, inkinobho eyodwa ngaphansi kwawo kanye namabhande obunikazi. Ngokuphambene, i-Galaxy Watch4 ne-Watch5 inekesi eliyindilinga, kodwa ayinawo umqhele, kuyilapho futhi inemilenze yakudala yokunamathisela amabhande ngokusebenzisa izikhonkwane ezijwayelekile. I-Pixel Watch empeleni iyindilinga futhi inhle njenge-Apple Watch.
I-chip endala nokubekezela kwamahora angu-24
I-Apple yaziwa ngokuqhubeka nokwandisa ukusebenza kwamadivayisi ayo, ngokuvamile ngisho nangeso, lapho imane ibala kabusha i-chip futhi ingengezi okuningi ekusebenzeni. Kunjalo nge-Apple Watch, kodwa ngokuqinisekile ngeke yenze okwenziwa yiGoogle manje. Wayengakwesabi ngempela lokho, futhi wafaka i-Pixel Watch nge-chipset ye-Samsung, ehlehlela emuva ku-2018. Yiyo eyasetshenziswa umkhiqizi waseNingizimu Korea ku-Galaxy Watch yayo yokuqala, kodwa manje isinesizukulwane sayo sesi-5. Ngaphezu kwalokho, iGoogle ithi ihlala amahora angama-24. Uma ekwazile ukunciphisa izimfuno zewashi zibe ncane kangako, kuhle, kodwa namanje asazi ukuthi zizogijima kanjani futhi zidle izicelo, kunjalo.
Kodwa ingabe amahora angu-24 anele ngempela? Abasebenzisi be-Apple Watch bayijwayele, kodwa idivayisi ye-Samsung Wear OS ingahlala izinsuku ezimbili, i-Watch 5 Pro ingahlala izinsuku ezintathu, noma amahora angu-24 i-GPS ivuliwe. Njengoba kubonakala, i-Pixel Watch ngeke iphumelele lapha. Yize kunesithembiso esicacile sokubambisana eduze kwewashi nemikhiqizo namasevisi we-Google, alinalo idumela elifanayo kubasebenzisi abaningi njengoba i-Apple yenza kubasebenzisi be-iPhone. Ngaphezu kwalokho, isisekelo somnikazi wefoni yePixel asifani neze, njengoba inkampani ikwazile ukuthengisa izigidi ezingama-30 kuze kube manje, kuyilapho i-Apple ithengise ama-iPhones ayizigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezimbili (yize isikhathi eside, kunjalo).
I-Google kungenzeka futhi iyikhave intengo, njengoba i-Pixel Watch ibiza kakhulu ngama- $ 70 kune-Samsung Galaxy Watch yamanje. Ngoba womabili amamodeli asebenza kuwo wonke amafoni e-Android, abanikazi be-Pixel noma be-Galaxy akudingeki bawathathe. Manje kungani ufuna i-Pixel Watch kuyilapho ngine-Android futhi eziningi kangaka engingakhetha kuzo? Ukwengeza, i-Wear OS isethwe ukuthi ikhule yize ibikhethekile noma ngaphansi kwa-Samsung kuze kube manje.
Kungaba njalo okuthakaselayo
Izimbungulu zesizukulwane sokuqala
Awukwazi ukusho ukuthi i-Google ilinde isikhathi eside kakhulu. Uma kuqhathaniswa ne-Samsung, kusasele unyaka kuphela, ngoba laba bakamuva bakwazile ukukhulula izizukulwane ezimbili kuphela zamawashi nge-Wear OS yabo ehlangene. Ngakho-ke amandla akhona, kodwa umuntu angaqagela ukuthi iwashi lokuqala elihlakaniphile le-Google lizogcina lifana newashi lokuqala le-Apple elihlakaniphile - lizohlaba umxhwele, kodwa lizolingana. Ngisho ne-Apple Watch yokuqala yayiyimbi, ihamba kancane, futhi i-Series 1 ne-2 kuphela ezame ukuxazulula izifo zabo nalapha, silinganiselwe kakhulu ekusebenzeni, ngakho-ke kungacatshangwa ukuthi i-Pixel Watch yesizukulwane sesibili kuphela engaba i-full- egcwele-. Isiqhudelana esisafufusa se-Apple Watch enhlanzini ebizwa ngokuthi i-Android.
I-Pixel Watch isivele itholakalela uku-odwa kusengaphambili ezimakethe ezisekelwayo. Bazobheka izinto zokubala zezitolo emazweni angu-17, angafaki i-Czech Republic, ngo-Okthoba 13. Intengo yabo iqala kumadola angama-349. Uma kucatshangelwa ukuthi amafoni e-Pixel nawo anikezwa lapha njengokungeniswa kwamanye amazwe, kungenzeka ukuthi izingcezu ezimbalwa zizofika ezweni.
Ngaphezu kwakho konke, bukeka umubi. Asikho isidingo sokuphawula ngokuqina, akukho abangakhononda ngakho nge-AW. :-)
