Your Pixel 10 should no longer have any problems connecting to a Galaxy Watch

Getting set up with a brand-new phone is one of the great joys of our year, and that’s especially true when we’re working with one of Google’s latest Pixel phones. Right now the Pixel 10 series offers a lot to like, but some owners are running into new-phone compatibility issues — like the one we just looked at with the Pixel 10 and Android Auto, or the problems with Google Home notifications on the Pixel 10. Another big glitch has been interfering with Pixel 10 phones pairing with Samsung Galaxy Watch models, but we’ve finally got some good news for you there.

We first heard about this problem one week ago, with online forums and social media filling up with reports of new Pixel 10 series owners who were struggling to get their Galaxy Watch 7, Galaxy Watch 7, and Galaxy Watch Ultra models to connect over Bluetooth. We even experienced this headache first-hand, trying and failing to pair a Galaxy Watch 8 Classic with one of our Pixel 10 Pro XL handsets.
