As another year goes by since the last Pixel hardware launch, the Pixel Watch 5 is beginning to surface online in FCC listings. This time, the leak leaves us with more questions than answers.

Google’s Pixel Watch 5 has already been spotted in the wild – the genuine “wild.” The latest leaks are not so much physical as an indication that Google is gearing up to make the announcement soon.

Spotted by Droid Life, Google’s Pixel Watch 5 has recently gone through its traditional FCC registration process. Those details are then posted on the committee’s website with specifications pertinent to carriers.

The listings don’t give too much away. Each device is listed as a “wireless device,” though that’s nothing out of the ordinary compared to the classification we see with Google’s wearables. What is telling is the lack of strictly Wi-Fi models present.

There are four models registered with the FCC – G25QD, G1XJ6, G0F3Y, and GFW3R. According to the findings, each of these devices can connect to internet service providers via Wi-Fi and LTE.

That’s something we generally see from just half of the models produced, not the entire lineup. The Wi-Fi only model is often cheaper but lacks access to carrier networks. If the listings show every Pixel Watch 5 model that Google plans to sell, that would mean Google is skipping the traditionally affordable version.

It’s unclear whether this is an error on the part of the FCC or if critical details are missing. If all four versions had both protocols, that would mean half of the watches are identical. This could signal that Google is producing a second model, like a “Pro” version that comes in two similar size options. That would fall in line with what the Galaxy Watch Ultra has become for Samsung.

In either case, the FCC page doesn’t clear things up at all.

FCC documentation like this for the Pixel Watch 5 generally shows up shortly before a device’s launch. If Google follows the same pattern as last year, we could see the new Pixel Watch series as soon as August.

TL;DR
  • The first high-quality renders of the Pixel Watch 5 have leaked ahead of its expected August launch event.
  • The Pixel Watch 5 is said to come in Dark Anthracite, Natural Silver, Pyrite, and Warm Gold case-and-band combinations.
  • The smartwatch will reportedly come in 41mm and 45mm case sizes, across both Wi-Fi-only and Wi-Fi plus LTE configurations. However, the Warm Gold option could be exclusive to the smaller 41mm variant.



We’ve seen a bunch of leaked renders for the Pixel 11 series so far in the runup to the August launch event, but the accompanying Pixel Watch 5 has remained unseen yet in renders — not counting the Pixel Watch 5 found in the ocean. Now, the first set of Pixel Watch 5 renders are here, offering our best look at the upcoming smartwatch across several colors.

Leaker OnLeaks has shared these high-quality renders of the upcoming Pixel Watch 5 with The Tide Chart:

Google pixel watch 5 anthracite 45mm
Pixel Watch 5 - Dark Anthracite, paired with a black band
Googlepixel watch 5 silver 45mm

Google pixel watch 5 pyrite 45mm
Pixel Watch 5 - Pyrite, paired with an olive band
Google pixel watch 5 gold 41mm
Pixel Watch 5 - Warm Gold, paired with a coral band
The Pixel Watch 5 is said to come in these colors:
  • Dark Anthracite, paired with a black band.
  • Natural Silver, paired with a pale gray band.
  • Pyrite, paired with an olive band.
  • Warm Gold, paired with a coral band.
Of these, the Warm Gold color and band combination has been spotted only on the smaller 41mm variant, while the other three colors have been spotted on both the 41mm and 45mm variants. Both sizes are said to come in Wi-Fi-only and Wi-Fi plus LTE variants.

Has anyone received the September update? Mine still shows August, even though I manually checked for updates. Paired with Pixel 11 Pro XL
