The upcoming Pixel Watch 3 from Google will include a slightly larger battery than its predecessor. The watch was spotted on Dekra and Safety Korea websites, and thus its battery capacity was revealed.
The Pixel Watch 3 will include a larger battery… technically
Google’s watch was certified with the model number G1QME. Now, we cannot be sure this is the Pixel Watch 3, but it almost certainly is. Based on the provided information, the watch will include a 307mAh battery.
The Pixel Watch 2 includes a 304mAh battery, so the difference here is almost negligible, to be quite honest. The difference is only 3mAh. As a side note, the first-gen model included a 294mAh unit.
The watch is expected to arrive in two different sizes
Unlike the first and second-gen models, the Pixel Watch 3 is expected to arrive in two different sizes. In addition to a smaller 41mm option, Google is rumored to offer a 45mm version.
Many people have complained that the Pixel Watch and Pixel Watch 2 are simply too small for them. I’d agree with that statement, and I’m used to considerably larger watches. Well, now we’ll have options, it seems.
The Snapdragon W5 Plus Gen 1 SoC is expected to fuel the Pixel Watch 3
The company’s upcoming smartwatch is expected to utilize the Snapdragon W5 Plus Gen 1 processor from Qualcomm. WearOS will come pre-installed, of course, and the battery life should improve further.
The first-gen model had a really poor battery life. The Pixel Watch 2 did improve upon that, but the third-gen model should really bring a notable improvement. We cannot be sure at this point, but it all points in that direction.
Google will once again release a circular smartwatch, even though we still don’t know what will it look like. The company is expected to make some changes, just so it doesn’t release an identical-looking watch three years in a row. We don’t expect major design changes, though.
