Google Pixel Watch 5 with double the storage but an older chipset
Compared to the Pixel Watch 4, the Google Pixel Watch 5 offers twice the storage space (64 GB instead of 32 GB), runs Wear OS 7 from the start, and has a slightly larger battery (332 mAh instead of 325 mAh for the smaller model, 465 mAh instead of 455 mAh for the larger one). Despite this, Google claims the same battery life (30 hours for the 41 mm version, 40 hours for the 45 mm version).
It continues to be powered by the Snapdragon Wear W5 Gen 2 chipset and appears to have the same display. Satellite SOS is included free for two years on the Google Pixel Watch 5, starting from activation. The 41mm version of the Pixel Watch weighs 31g, and the 45mm version weighs 36.7g, both without the strap. Both are 12.3mm thick.
The Google Pixel Watch 5 is IP68 dustproof and waterproof, and water-resistant up to 5 ATM (suitable for diving). It supports heart rate, SpO2, ECG, skin conductance, and skin temperature monitoring, and also features an integrated altimeter, barometer, and compass, as well as dual-frequency GPS, Galileo, GLONASS, BeiDou, and QZSS. Bluetooth 6, Wi-Fi 6, NFC, and UWB are also integrated. A power adapter is not included.
The Pixel Watch 5 will be equipped with Gemini Intelligence, which will likely be a key selling point for both the watch and the Pixel 11, Pixel 11 Pro, Pixel 11 Pro XL, and Pixel 11 Pro Fold. Gemini Intelligence is described as a “personal, proactive assistant” that “anticipates your needs and provides helpful information at the right moment.” The smartwatch also features heart rate monitoring with automatic alerts for heart rate loss and, according to Google, the most accurate sleep tracking to date.
