leaks ahead of the launch. However, the Pixel Watch 4 and Pixel Buds 2A are now officially announced. Both can be preordered from Google’s online store, with shipments set to begin on October 9. This launch date coincides with that of the Pixel 10 Pro Fold.
The Pixel Watch 4 stands out as the more thrilling accessory unveiled during Google’s event. It is available in 41mm and 45mm sizes, both ready for preorder at $349 or $399 (Wi-Fi versions) and $449 or $499 (LTE versions). This is the first smartwatch to support standalone Satellite Communications, a feature that could be useful in areas lacking Wi-Fi and LTE service.
The Pixel Watch 4 models also present a new Actua 360 dome display. The screen’s curvature enhances the viewing area. Google has boosted the watch’s brightness by 50%, providing up to 3,000 nits. Additionally, the battery life in the Pixel Watch 4 models surpasses that of the Pixel Watch 3, offering up to 30 hours or 40 hours depending on the size. Furthermore, the Watch 4 models can recharge quicker with a new Quick Charge Dock, requiring just 15 minutes to charge from 0% to 50%.
