Google’s highly anticipated Pixel Watch 4 is just weeks away, and excitement is building ahead of the annual Made by Google event.
The new smartwatch promises not just subtle design changes but meaningful upgrades that could make it one of the most appealing wearables of the year.
Pixel Watch 4 specifications
The Pixel Watch 4 keeps the familiar rounded display, side-mounted crown, and band connectors but is slightly thicker, likely to accommodate new health sensors.
It will come in two sizes, 41mm and 45mm. Both sizes will be available in Wi-Fi (no cellular data) and LTE (cellular data) versions, featuring a range of colours from Black/Gold to Moonstone/Porcelain.
Leaks confirm that the watch's charging system has shifted from back charging to side charging, which means previous chargers won't work, but that design change has produced the first repairable watch (yes, it has always been unrepairable).
Also, the Pixel Watch 4 won't excel in performance. It will still be powered by the Snapdragon W5 Gen 1 processor, but there should be a noticeable change in battery life improvements, with improvements in the 327mAh and 459mAh battery sizes (depending on whether it is a 41mm or 45mm variant).
It will have AMOLED LTPO displays (of course, they have not indicated if these displays will be new colours and brightness, while supporting much higher nits), brighter display to potentially 3,000 nits and faster charging speeds, which could be up to 25% faster than previous models.'
Moreover, it is expected to launch with Wear OS 6 and will include Material 3 (first time), will come with new dynamic colour themes, and built-in Gemini AI will be fully integrated into devices in the future.
It will have new health monitoring features, which will include continuous SpO2 monitoring and low oxygen detection!
