Most of the focus of Google’s upcoming event is rumoured to be on the entire Pixel 9 lineup, but don’t forget that Google is also anticipated to announce the Pixel Watch 3. 

Dealabs, a French site, claimed to have the prices for the Pixel Watch 3 and Pixel Watch 3 XL. 

The 41mm Pixel Watch 3 is claimed to have a starting price of €399 for the Bluetooth/Wi-Fi version. However, the LTE variant leaps up to €499. They could cost $435 and $544 in the US. 

The Wi-Fi version is the same price as the Pixel Watch 2, while the LTE version experiences an exponential increase of €50.

For reference, the US LTE version of the Pixel Watch 2 was released at $399, with the Wi-Fi version starting at $349. Hopefully, the European price means US versions won't notice a price increase. 

Moreover, according to the leak, the Pixel Watch 3 would be available in four strap colours including obsidian, porcelain, hazel, and pink.

The 45mm Pixel Watch 3, or the Pixel Watch 3 XL, has similar pricing, with the Wi-Fi/Bluetooth version starting price of €449 and the LTE version at €549. This would be $489 and $598.

The US pricing will be slightly different from the French numbers and USD conversions, but it does give an idea of what Pixel Watch might see from Google.
