At the Google I/O 2022 developer conference today, the search engine giant finally unveiled its highly anticipated Pixel Watch to the world.
After much speculation and the occasional leaked image, this is what the Google Pixel Watch really looks like, as shown at the I/O event.
Pixel Watch Design Details
As we expected from leaked images ahead of today’s official announcement of the Pixel Watch, the design is quite a refreshing change from its main competition – the Apple Watch Series 7. Mainly due to the fact that the Pixel Watch, despite being a smartwatch, has the more traditional round form factor, similar to a regular wristwatch.
While it doesn’t have a rotating bezel, on the side of the Pixel Watch we get a tactile rotating crown.
As for the color options, although Google hasn’t revealed them yet, industry insiders have previously suggested that the recycled stainless steel case of the Google Pixel Watch will come in three colors:
Of course, the smartwatch’s interchangeable wristband is what really matters when it comes to customization, and we can expect plenty of options – from the simple silicone band shown today, to the third-party bands that will inevitably be released after the watch itself comes out. . More details on when that will be below.

Wear OS improvements, Fitbit and smart home integration
Pixel Watch delivers an excellent Wear OS experience on your wrist. It features an improved Wear OS UI, with smoother navigation and smart notifications. It’s all designed to be tap, voice, and eye-to-eye, so you can be more present at home, at work or on the go. You can ask the Assistant for help getting things done and those little bits of information you need throughout the day. And with Google Maps, you can get directions on the go, even without your phone. With the new Google Wallet, you can also leave your physical wallet at home.
