Users report their Pixel Watch backplates randomly falling off

The device, which runs on Wear OS 3, received solid reviews for its sleek design, smooth performance, and integration with the Pixel Phone.

However, some Pixel Watch owners recently encountered a major problem with their devices: the backplate randomly falling off.

The issue seems to affect both GPS and LTE models of the watch, and it appears to happen mostly when it’s removed from its charging puck.

Some users speculate that the glue that holds the backplate to the watch is not strong enough to withstand the magnetic force of the charger or the heat generated by the device while charging or with regular use.

Google has not officially acknowledged or addressed this issue yet, but some affected users have reported that they were able to get their devices replaced under warranty.

If you own a Pixel Watch, you may want to check your device regularly for any signs of a loose or damaged backplate.
