Community Reviews
Google Fi is offering the Pixel Watch 3 LTE as an effectively free smartwatch deal, with the watch sharing your existing Fi number and LTE service included. The strongest appeal is the pricing structure, since the $250 discount and $150 in monthly credits can leave only tax and shipping due upfront. The main catch is the fine print, which requires staying active on Fi for 120 days and keeping the line for the 24 month credit period or paying back the remaining balance. The promo appears to be 45 mm only, with stock and checkout availability changing quickly.
Common Questions (5)
Yes. The $250 discount is tied to staying active and in good standing on Fi for 120 consecutive days; pausing, changing, or suspending service within that window can trigger a chargeback of the $250. After 120 days, stopping service mainly ends the remaining monthly credits.
Yes. The promo appears for the Pixel Watch 3 LTE 45mm, while the 41mm/44mm options do not show the discount at checkout and can lead to full-price checkout. Several comments also note the offer is only visible for 45mm in the Fi shop.
The watch is discounted by $250, and the remaining $150 is returned as monthly bill credits over 24 months. In practice, many checkouts show only sales tax and shipping as the out-of-pocket cost, with LTE service included on the existing Fi number.
Yes, each person on the group plan can place a separate order and get one watch, as long as the watch is assigned to a person in the account. The activation account must be part of the group plan.
Yes. The watch cellular service is included with the Fi plan and shares the same phone number as your phone, so there is no extra monthly watch service charge on standard Fi plans. On the Flexible plan, watch data can still increase your bill because it counts toward data usage.

$150 financed divided by 24 months equals $6.25 credited per month. 6.25 times 4 months equals $25. 150 minus 25 equals $125.
