The Google Pixel Watch 3 could be imminent – with a key upgrade included
What key upgrade does the Pixel Watch 3 include?
The Pixel Watch 3 is rumored to include ultra-wideband (UWB) technology, which upgrades close-range connectivity and location tracking. This feature is already available in the Apple Watch 9, Apple's AirTags, and the latest iPhones. UWB can be used to give more precision when locating a lost device and could help with improved integrations with other devices, potentially including Chromebooks and Pixel phones.
When is the Pixel Watch 3 expected to debut?
The Pixel Watch 3 is expected to debut in August 2024, during the "Made by Google" event. This expectation is based on the recent appearance of the smartwatch at the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for regulatory approval, which typically happens close to the launch of the relevant devices.
How many models of the Pixel Watch 3 are there?
There are four models of the Pixel Watch 3 that have been spotted at the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in the US. These models are codenamed GBDU9, GRY0E, GG3HH, and GGE4J. Two of these models have LTE cellular connectivity, while the other two stick to Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.
