New images of the future Pixel Google Watch just leaked thanks to leaker Jon Prosser. He had shared information about the future competitor of Apple Watch in April. The launch was initially planned at the same time as the smartphone Pixel 6, which was announced in October. However, at the time, it only had CGI and the launch of the smartwatch was postponed due to the shortage of semiconductors.
The new images are screenshot marketing materials, most of which are of very poor quality. They come directly from Google and confirm the renderings released earlier this year as well as the name: it will be the Pixel Watch. As expected, it will be bezel-less. It will have a simple round screen with a side button.
A launch in the first quarter of 2022
The Pixel Watch should carry most of the usual functions, with a step counter and a heart rate monitor. She will use the operating system Wear OS 3 based on Android, without overlay (unlike the Galaxy watch 4). The launch date is not yet known, but according to the leaker it should be announced during the first quarter of 2022.
Jon Prosser also took the opportunity to deny a rumor that runs on the Pixel Fold. According to some, the foldable smartphone, the first information of which was leaked in 2019, has been canceled. For him, it is not. However, at this time we still have no estimate on a possible launch date.
