With that out of the way, let’s get to the screen protectors for your Pixel Watch.
1. ECSEM Case with Screen Protector
Since it’s hard to find a good screen protector, you might want to consider getting a screen protector case for the Pixel Watch. This way, your watch will remain safe from scratches and dents even on the frame if at all you drop your watch. The case has proper cutouts for the speaker, mic, and digital crown on the right. While this is a reliable and protective combo, what might put you off is that the screen protector doesn’t adhere to the screen. Hence, the touch sensitivity of the display takes a hit. If you can live with a slightly less responsive display, you should be fine. Else, you should consider the other dedicated screen protectors.
2. PANDESS 3D Curved Screen Protector Film
PMMA screen protectors are generally preferred on curved displays like the Apple Watch. This is because a standard screen protector cannot wrap around the curved edges, resulting in air gaps. A 3D curved screen protector like this solves the issue by introducing a black border along the edge to cover the air gap. This screen protector is also thicker than your average film which means it’s going to protect the display from both scratches and cracks. When seen from afar, it may seem as though you’ve not applied any screen protector on the display which is an advantage. What isn’t an advantage, though, is that because of the thickness, this screen protector affects the touch sensitivity of the screen. It’s very slight though and you can surely live with it. But, you may have to tap on an icon twice sometimes for it to register.
3. Ringke Dual Easy Film
If you don’t mind leaving your watch’s bezels exposed, this Ringke Pixel Watch screen protector is a good choice. It adheres to the screen perfectly and since it’s thin, it doesn’t cause any touch issues. It’s made of plastic, though, so it will get scratched up pretty easily. However, you get 3 of them in the box so if one gets beat up, you can swap it out pretty quickly. The Ringke Dual Easy Film is also compatible with cases for the Pixel Watch since it won’t interfere with the bezels. Ringke claims that the screen protector has self-healing properties so if you do end up scratching it, it should heal itself in some time. Apart from the fact that it’s smaller than the display, there’s no real downside to this screen protector.
4. IQ Shield Matte Full Body Protector
The IQ Shield matte protector is a liquid-based screen protector which means the application process is anything but straightforward. Once you apply it, though, the result is a seamless screen protector that covers the entire front of the Pixel Watch including the curved glass. Additionally, you get the matte texture, which, in our opinion, makes the watch look better and avoids fingerprints. Your Pixel Watch’s sides and back will also stay away from scratches, thanks to the fact that you get a film for those portions as well. If you can patiently get through the application process, we would highly recommend the IQ Shield screen protector for the Pixel Watch. Do note that since it is film-based, you’re not going to get any impact protection but your watch will stay safe from scratches.
Keep That Display Shiny
The Google Pixel Watch has one of the most beautiful displays and it would be a shame to damage it. To prevent that from happening, you can get any of these Pixel Watch screen protectors and add a layer of protection against scratches and cracks.
