Google previously teased its upcoming devices at Google I/O 2022 earlier this year, showing off their design and some features. The Pixel 7 series looks almost identical to the current batch of flagship Pixel smartphones, except for some changes to the camera lens. We also saw in a practical video that the prototypes have slightly different sizes.
The Pixel 7 is expected to be powered by the second-generation Google Tensor chipset, although we expect most of the hardware specs to be largely similar to the Pixel 6.
As for Pixel Watch, Google showed off some of the features you can expect from the device, such as integration with Fitbit and the Google Home app for controlling smart home products. While no specs have been confirmed yet, the watch is expected to run on Samsung’s older chipset and provide about a day’s worth of power. It can also come with 2GB of RAM and 32GB of storage.
The full reveal of the Pixel Watch could also indicate a wider release of Wear OS 3, which is only available with two brands now. Modern models are expected to be updated to Wear OS 3, with new models in development from various OEMs. Hopefully, Google will provide more information about the update during the event.
The MadeByGoogle event will take place on October 6th at 10am ET. You can head to Google Store website sign up for a reminder.
