Google Pixel Watch 3 and 3 XL renders have been leaked online.
OnLeaks has shared images of the next generation of Google Pixel Watches, which will now get an XL model with a larger screen size:
Google Pixel Watch 3 (black):
β’ Display diagonal: 1.2 inches (same as PW2);
β’ Dimensions: 40.79 x 40.73 x 14 mm (vs. 41 x 41 x 12.3 mm for the PW2);
β’ Estimated battery capacity: 307 mAh. (vs. 304 mAh in the PW2);
Google Pixel Watch 3 XL (white):
β’ Display diagonal: 1.45 in
β’ Dimensions: 45 x 45 x 13.89 mm.
Judging by the dimensions and diagonal, the base variant of the Pixel Watch 3 will offer thinner display bezels. And the larger dimensions of the Pixel Watch 3 XL will surely imply a larger battery.
Also, the stock straps could get an updated clasp. Furthermore, due to the size of the 3 XL, the band attachment system for this model will not be compatible with the band attachment system of Pixel Watch 1, 2, and 3.
