Google Pixel Watch Ultra rumors begin — but a rugged Pixel Watch needs 3 fixes first
Could a Google Pixel Watch Ultra really happen? Some reports indicate that Google's at least mulling it over.
Google is reportedly considering a successor to its popular Google Pixel Watch, with the potential next iteration possibly resembling the designs of the Apple Watch Ultra 4, Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra 2, and Garmin Fenix 9 Pro. A survey circulating within Google's app aims to gather insights from selected users about the future of Pixel Watches, including whether they would be willing to pay more for a rugged watch and what features would make the Google Pixel Watch 5 feel more premium.
The leaked information suggests that Google is keen on launching a rugged Pixel Watch, drawing inspiration from Apple Watch Ultra and Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra. However, to achieve this, the Pixel Watch will require three significant upgrades. Firstly, incorporating a bezel is essential for protecting the screen, particularly for rugged adventure watches.
Secondly, improving battery life is crucial, as the current model has limited endurance. Lastly, adding more buttons would enable users to operate the watch comfortably, even when wearing gloves during physical activities. Google must address these challenges to compete with premium watches in the Ultra segment.
