Google Pixel Watch 5 leaks in official-looking renders ahead of launch

Official renders for the upcoming Google Pixel Watch 5 have leaked, providing a clear look at the design ahead of the company's August 12th launch event. The device maintains the recognizable circular form factor seen in its predecessors, keeping the domed display and proprietary band attachment system consistent with previous versions.

Google plans to offer the watch in two sizes, 41 mm and 45 mm, with four distinct case finishes. The color palette includes Dark Anthracite, Natural Silver, Pyrite, and Warm Gold. While the first three options are available for both sizes, the Warm Gold finish remains exclusive to the smaller 41 mm model.

Technical updates center on internal hardware improvements. The watch is expected to run on Wear OS 7 and feature the new Snapdragon Wear Elite chipset, which aims to improve battery efficiency and performance. Added connectivity options include ultra-wideband support, which assists with precise device tracking. The interface also shows a new analog watch face with a dedicated shortcut for Gemini, indicating a move toward deeper artificial intelligence integration.

Pricing for the new lineup appears set for an increase. European market reports suggest a starting price of 419 EUR for the 41 mm Wi-Fi model, with LTE and larger size variants scaling up to 549 EUR. This represents a 20 EUR jump compared to the previous generation. While availability for specific regions like India remains unconfirmed, the device is expected to reach most major markets shortly after the August debut.
