After several rumors, Google introduced Google Watch last year in October featuring Exynos 9110 SoC. It is considered to be a successful device if we go with sales and its limited availability across selected countries. Surprisingly, the Pixel Watch 2 is in the works, and recent leaks and rumors have hinted towards its extended release in some more countries. The Pixel Watch 2 has appeared (1, 2, 3) on FCC (Via GCHub) where a few more things have been unleashed.

According to the FCC listing, there are three different Pixel Watch 2 Models – G4TSL, GC3G8, and GD2WG. Among these three, the GC3G8 and GD2WG are LTE-based variants and the G4TSL appears to be the Bluetooth/WiFi variant. Further, the documents of all three models mention four different straps including Plastic Active Strap, Metal mesh strap, Metal Link Strap, and Metal slim strap.
All three models were using a G1000 18W PD charger while testing, but this does not confirm the in-box availability.
Previous Leaks
Considering the previous leaks, the Pixel Watch 2 is expected to feature the Qualcomm Snapdragon W5 Gen 1 platform, instead of the Exynos 9110 SoC. There will be a larger 306 mAh battery in comparison with the 294 mAh battery present on its predecessor.
A lot has been revealed via a recent Android Authority report which even unleashed the boot animation look of the Pixel Watch 2. Interestingly, the new watch is elected to bundle a 1.2-inch circular OLED display featuring 384×384 pixels resolution from Samsung Display. Google seems ditching BOE for Pixel Watch 2 display.
Google Pixel Watch 2 is set to feature Ultra-Wideband (UWB) support which will enable car unlocking using a Digital car key, improved device finding, and seamless media playback to Pixel Tablet in a dock and other Nest speakers. Further, it will bundle Android 13-based Wear OS 4.
The regulatory e-labels with BIS stamp point towards its India launch. However, the availability in other countries remains a mystery.
