New Pixel Watch 4 leak details even more hardware upgrades ahead of next month's launch

Kaitlyn Cimino / Android Authority TL;DR The Pixel Watch 4 is said to feature a Snapdragon W5 Plus Gen 1 chip. Both models are expected to have a new co-processor called the M55. For the first time, the smartwatch may feature side charging. Google confirmed today that it will hold its hardware event on August 20. The showcase should include its Pixel phones, watches, earbuds, and more. Coincidentally, a new leak about the Pixel Watch 4 also arrived today. This leak reveals what could be the specs for both the 41mm and 45mm models. Just in time for Google's announcement, Android Headlines has shared the specs for the Pixel Watch 4. According to the report, Google's next smartwatch will have the same processor as its predecessor — the Snapdragon W5 Plus Gen 1. While the chip is staying the same, the company is at least upgrading the battery (which we mentioned in our own report) and making the display brighter. Additionally, it's said to have a new co-processor that Google calls M55. The outlet mentions that the M55 will allow the Pixel Watch 4 to handle five times the 'AI workload at a fraction of the power.'

While the co-processor is a new addition, it won't be the only new thing coming to the Pixel Watch line.

Like any smartwatch, the Pixel Watch 4 will have a range of sensors. These sensors will reportedly include: Compass Red and infrared sensors for SpO2 monitoring Multipurpose electrical sensors (compatible with ECG app) Multi-path optical heart rate sensor Altimeter Gyroscope 3-axis accelerometer Ambient light sensor Barometer Magnatometer Ultrawideband When the Pixel Watch 4 launches next month, it's expected to be available in five colors.
