Google produces its Pixel Watch models in a single-size variant, a departure from Apple and Samsung, which offer smartwatches in various sizes. Both the original Pixel Watch and the Pixel Watch 2 are available in a 41mm diameter size. However, reports suggest that the upcoming Pixel Watch 3 will introduce a larger 45mm variant. This development follows earlier reports in January indicating that the next Google Pixel Watch would be offered in multiple sizes.
According to information from 9to5Google, the forthcoming Google Pixel Watch 3 is set to include a larger size option alongside the traditional 41mm model. Sources cited in the report suggest that the new variant will measure 45mm, providing a more sizable watch casing. While both models are expected to share similar features, the larger version may benefit from an enhanced battery capacity.
Pixel Watch users have long expressed interest in a larger-sized model, as the current 41mm variant may appear diminutive on broader wrists. In contrast, competitors like Apple and Samsung offer smartwatches in multiple size options. The Apple Watch Series 9 is offered in 41mm and 45mm variants, while the Galaxy Watch 6 is available in 40mm and 44mm sizes.
Additionally, the 9To5Google report mentions Google’s work on the Pixel Buds Pro 2 earphones. Serving as the successor to the Pixel Buds Pro, which debuted in the Indian market in 2022, the new earphones are currently under development but lack an official name or release timeline.
Further details about the Pixel Watch 3 and the Pixel Buds Pro 2 remain scarce. However, a patent filing from November last year hinted at potential features for the next-generation Pixel Watch, including a buttonless design equipped with gesture-detecting sensors.
The Google Pixel Watch 2 was introduced in India in October 2023, featuring a Qualcomm 5100 SoC and a 3D curved always-on display. Boasting 2GB of RAM, 32GB of internal storage, and running Wear OS 4.0 out-of-the-box, the Pixel Watch 2 offers a blend of performance and functionality for users.
