The first in-house smartwatch by Google, the Pixel Watch, will arrive later this year. It has already been making the rounds on the internet for some time. Now, the Pixel Watch has surfaced on the certification site FCC. The listing suggests that the upcoming smart wearable will come in three different model variants.
According to the FCC listing, the upcoming Google Pixel Watch will be available in three different models. One model, the GQF4C, will have WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity while the other two, the GBZ4S and GWT9R will have LTE connectivity. The GBZ4S, on the other hand, will support three LTE bands, i.e., LTE B5, B7, and B26. The GWT9R comes with support for 10 LTE bands, i.e., LTE B2, B4, B5, B12, B13, B17, B25, B26, B66, and B71. Besides, the GW9TR is expected to be released in the United States, while the GBZ4S will be launched in other regions.
Pixel Watch To Be Powered By The Cortex-M33 Co-Processor
As we know, the Exynos 9110 chipset is likely to power the Pixel Watch. However, for better power efficiency, it may have a co-processor most likely the Cortex-M33. Furthermore, the Google smartwatch is said to have 1.5GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage. The Cortex-M33’s power consumption is measured in micro Watts. Therefore, it should last a long time on the 300mAh battery.
Another interesting feature of the Pixel smart wearable is that it will have a linear motor for haptic feedback. This should provide better vibrations than watches with typical vibration motors.
We also found that the Pixel Watch would be manufactured by Taiwan’s Compal Electronics. It has been producing the Apple Watch for several years. As per the FCC, Compal Electronics will also make the charging cable of the Pixel Watch. Its charging cable would be a magnetic puck-type charger. However, unlike other chargers, it would have a USB-C connector. This will allow the Pixel Watch to use the same charger as the Google Pixel smartphones.
Pixel Watch Launch Date
Google will officially introduce the Pixel Watch this fall at the company’s annual hardware event which is speculated to be in October or November. It will be released alongside Pixel 7 and 7 Pro.
