The brand new leak says that the Pixel Watch 3 collection will begin on the similar value, however the larger mannequin (which is understood proper now because the Pixel Watch 3 XL) will reportedly begin at $399 (for the Bluetooth model).
Google’s Pixel Watches often begin at $349, and it appears Google is following the identical pricing technique for the bottom mannequin this yr as effectively, no less than for the smaller 41mm model. Earlier than that, Pixel Watch fashions solely had a 41mm model, however now we’ll be getting an even bigger one too.
The 45mm Pixel Watch 3 is reported to begin at $399 for the Bluetooth model, $50 greater than the 41mm mannequin. That is a bit of bit off what we would count on, given the truth that each Apple and Samsung are charging simply $30 extra for the larger mannequin of their respective smartwatch strains.
For LTE connectivity, Google will probably be charging $100 extra on each sizes, which is commonplace follow, and different rivals are doing it, so nothing unusual right here.
Pixel Watch 4 value breakdown in response to leaks:
- Pixel Watch 3 (41mm, BT): $349
- Pixel Watch 3 (41mm, LTE): $449
- Pixel Watch 3 (45mm, BT): $399
- Pixel Watch 3 (415mm, LTE): $499
The Pixel Watch 3 is anticipated to be unveiled along with the Pixel 9 collection throughout a highly-anticipated Google occasion on August 13. The brand new smartwatch collection is anticipated to return with new band colours and slimmer bezels and appears very promising.
I’m susceptible to assume that this leak could also be correct, however it does look a bit unusual that the larger mannequin will probably be $50 dearer than the smaller mannequin when this is not the case for rivals. I am curious to see how (and if) Google will give any cause for this pricing other than the 45mm simply being an even bigger machine. We’ll know fairly quickly although, with the occasion simply across the nook lower than a pair weeks from now.
