Google is gearing up to release the Pixel Watch 3, and one of the most exciting features is the enhanced watch face that provides more space for complications. The latest leak of the Pixel 9 series gives us a peek at the Pixel Watch 3, which appears to be in a 41 mm size. The watch face design includes a pill-shaped time display on the left side, aligned with the crown, along with two complication slots above and below, and one on the right.
What sets this watch face apart is the presence of five circular complications, a step up from the maximum of four seen on current watch faces. The rumored bezel shrink, especially on the smaller model, may have made this increased complication space possible. This design change opens up new possibilities for Wear OS apps to make better use of the extra screen real estate. For instance, current apps like Gmail and Tasks on Wear OS may be able to display more information due to the expanded space.
However, it is unclear whether these new watch faces will be compatible with older devices, as the increased density may not work well on them. Despite this, the Pixel Watch 3 is generating a lot of buzz with leaks revealing details such as pricing differences between the 41 mm and 45 mm models, the use of the same chip, bezel shrinkage, and a bright 2,000 nits display. Additionally, the Pixel Watch 3 has made an appearance at the FCC with features like UWB and 5 GHz Wi-Fi.
As we eagerly await the official release of the Pixel Watch 3, it is evident that Google is stepping up its game in the smartwatch market with innovative design choices and powerful features.
