Why this grade

Split brand: the Pixel Watch 4 scored 9/10 — 'the most repairable smartwatch on the market' — with Google offering OFFICIAL repair parts and instructions and gasket-based (not adhesive) water resistance; this is the only official OEM parts/manual program among any brand graded here and is exactly what RTR rewards. But Pixel Buds remain poor: Pixel Buds Pro 2/10 (earbuds epoxied), A-Series 3/10 (soldered batteries), Pixel Buds 2a 4/10 (glued buds despite a repairable case), and the 1st-gen Pixel Watch was only 4/10. The strong watch program offsets the weak earbuds to a D.
