Google Pixel Watch 2 is said to significantly improve battery life
Any complaints you had about the Pixel Watch’s battery life may disappear with the sequel. Sources who spoke to 9to5Google claim that the Pixel Watch 2 will switch from Samsung’s 2018 Exynos 9110 to one of Qualcomm’s much newer Snapdragon W5 models. While the new smartwatch’s battery shouldn’t be significantly larger, longevity should be greatly improved – and it’s said that it could last more than a day with the always-on display on, if that wasn’t possible. before.
The Pixel Watch 2 is also said to use the same health sensors as the Fitbit Sense 2. This may provide ways to measure stress (i.e. electrical activity of the skin) and skin temperature. Many other details remain a mystery, but it wouldn’t be surprising if the new model was one of the first devices to run Wear OS 4. The new platform is supposed to improve performance, add backup support and improve accessibility.
An earlier rumor suggested that the Pixel Watch 2 would debut alongside the Pixel 8 this fall. If your wrist is running a Snapdragon device, that’s an extraordinary development. Google has so far relied heavily on Samsung-based chips in its recent mobile devices, including the Tensor G2 found in recent phones like the Pixel 7a. This suggests that Google is willing to break modern conventions in the name of a better product.
