Hey everyone, I've been excited for the pixel 8 lineup for quite a while and followed every leak that came through. And now that pre-orders come bundled with a watch, I'm really tempted to place one. But here in the UK, the prices feel especially crushing. So my question is, is it worth getting this bundle now or wait for a sale later.

P.S. I'm using a Rog phone now which has long been orphaned by Asus. I was hoping to switch to a supported device soon.

I guess my question is do you need a watch? Are you thinking of flipping the watch? If you can wait, you can probably get another deal during November/ black Friday sales but it's not guaranteed and I don't know if it'll be better. If you have the funds, you should get it just to ease your mind because Google is saying they're going to support phones for 7 years... (I don't think so, but who knows).

I hope they make good on the update cycle. But yeah, I would prefer a deal with the watch.

If you're looking for a deal on the watch I think it's a good deal then unless you want the LTE version.

They let you pay the diff and upgrade to the LTE, I believe.
