Google, which is reportedly planning to introduce its new flagship Pixel 8 series along with Android 14 later this year, is also expected to introduce the next-generation smartwatch Pixel Watch 2. According to a report by Android Authority, the Pixel 2 smartwatch will come with a series of new enhancements, and this time will be available in India as well. Here’s what you can expect from the Pixel Watch 2 smartwatch.
Pixel Watch 2 Specs:
The Pixel Watch 2 is expected to get a 1.2-inch 384 x 384 round OLED screen, which will make it much identical to its predecessor. Under the body, the Pixel Watch 2 is said to get power from the Qualcomm Snapdragon W5 Gen 1 processor with a 1.7GHz core and a modern Adreno 702 GPU. The smartwatch is also said to get a bigger 306mAh battery capacity.
Google's decision to add a custom coprocessor powered by an NXP chip rather than the W5 Plus model for the future Pixel Watch 2 seems useful. In addition, UWB technology will be a part of the smartwatch, providing opportunities for accurate device monitoring and the future addition of Digital Car Key capability.
The upcoming Pixel Watch 2 is said to run on the latest Wear OS 4 which is based on the Android 13. The California-based technology company is also said to offer a smoother, interruption-free software upgrade.
In terms of connectivity, the smartwatch is said to get two variants which are LTE and Wi-Fi. The codenames for the Pixel Watch 2 are also out and are said to be “Eos” and “Aurora”.
Pixel Watch 2 India Availability:
Since Google has missed out on the chance for selling Pixel Watch in the Indian market, it is reported that the smartwatch will be available for purchase in India along with the upcoming Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro.
The company has not confirmed the India debut of the Pixel Watch 2 as of now.
