Summary

  • Google has unveiled the Pixel Watch 4, powered by the new Snapdragon W5 Gen 2 SoC.
  • The watch arrives in 41 mm and 45 mm sizes with bigger 327mAh and 459mAh batteries.
  • The Pixel Watch 4 boasts a new health feature called Breathing Emergencies and starts from Rs 39,900.

After weeks of leaks and speculation, Google has officially launched the Pixel Watch 4. The new wearable brings modest upgrades over the Pixel Watch 3, focusing on refinements in design, performance and health tracking. With that said, let's take a look at the specifications, pricing and availability details of Google's latest smartwatch.

Pixel Watch 4 Features and Specifications

The latest Google Pixel Watch 4 arrives in the same two sizes as last year – 41 mm and 45 mm, featuring 1.29 and 1.45-inch displays protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 5. Both are OLED units with 60 Hz refresh rates and can get as bright as 3,000 nits under direct sunlight.

The rotating crown is located at the right, along with a single tactile button above. While the band attachment mechanism remains the same, the charging pins have been moved to the side. The dock has been changed, and the watch now sits side-on rather than face-up.

The Pixel Watch 4 is powered by Qualcomm's latest Snapdragon W5 Gen 2 chipset. It's a 20% smaller and 4nm chipset with 4x Cortex-A53 cores, bundled with 2 GB RAM and 32 GB onboard storage. It's what brings Satellite Connectivity to Pixel Watch 4, and improves GPS positioning accuracy by up to 50%.

The batteries are now bigger, with the 41 mm boasting a 327mAh unit and the 45 mm sporting a 459mAh unit. Google also claims a 25% uplift in charging speeds from the last generation.

Software-wise, there's the latest Wear OS 6 with a promise of three years of major updates. The smartwatch ships with Google's latest Material 3 Expressive UI, which, like on Android, brings a major UI revamp to Wear OS. Besides, the Pixel Watch 4 comes with Gemini, which first launched with the Galaxy Watch 8, and is rolling out to all the Wear OS 4 and above smartwatches.

Speaking of software, there's a new feature called Breathing Emergencies, which lets users know when their SpO2 levels are dangerously low. Besides, the Watch 4 also gets Emergency Satellite SOS, which should come in handy when there's no network connectivity.

The 41 mm variant of the  Google Pixel Watch 4 starts at Rs 39,900, while the 45 mm costs Rs 43,900. Like its previous iteration, India does not get the LTE variants of the Pixel Watch 4, which is a bummer. The Watch 4 is available in three colours and active band combinations: Black/Obsidian, Gold/Porcelain and Silver/Moonstone for the 45 mm, along with Iris and Limoncello for the 41 mm

The smartwatch is now available for preorders and will be available for purchase online on Flipkart and Google Store, and at offline/walk-in stores like Reliance Digital and Croma from October 2025. The overall improvements in the Pixel Watch 4 make it a solid upgrade, and here’s how the Pixel Watch 4 compares to the Pixel Watch 3.
