The rumors about a Google Pixel Watch have been around for a long time. Now an internal presentation should show the watch.
Google's Pixel Watch is a mystery in itself. Years ago, the Mountain View-based company ordered a watch from LG, but rejected it due to poor internal testing. So far, Google has not brought its own product with its own "WearOS" software onto the market. At the beginning of the year, there was a new report, which was published by the YouTuber “Jon Prosser”. He claimed to have received images of a new “Pixel Watch” with the code name “Rohan” from a Googler. He then used these to create his own renders from a render artist. prolet duce. How trustworthy the renders are was not clear at the time, but the well-informed journalist "Max Weinbach" was able to confirm the images from his own sources.
At the same time, Jon Prosser also published a report on the then unknown Pixel 6 devices, which in retrospect turned out to be correct. According to Prosser, the Pixel Watch with the Pixel 6 devices was supposed to be shown in October, but was postponed to Q1 2022 due to "supply bottlenecks". That was the starting point until a few days ago, because on Thursday published Business Insider published a report confirming Prosser's information. The watch is still being dogfooded internally, meaning it is being used by employees and feedback is being collected. The Verge jumped on the report at and, according to its own sources, has experienced a "price structure similar to that of the Apple Watch".

The fact that Prosser received little media attention annoyed the YouTuber, which led to a another video led this Sunday. In this, the creator publishes apparently photographed slides from an internal presentation that introduces the "Google Pixel Watch". The pictures show a round watch with a rotating crown, some with software functions such as Google Maps or a stopwatch. According to him, the watch is still scheduled for Q1 2022. In addition, the foldable pixel is not yet (contrary to a report by Ross Young) canceled.
