After working with Samsung to develop a new, less-sucky version of Wear OS, it seems that Google is finally working on its first Pixel Watch. The device likely features a rounded, bezel-less display, the Wear OS 3 operating system, and integration with Fitbit services.<\/p>\n

According to internal documents reviewed by Business Insider<\/em><\/a>, the Google Pixel hardware group is developing this smartwatch separately from the Fitbit team. The specs are still unknown, but Insider<\/em> claims that the Pixel Watch will cost more than a Fitbit and compete with flagship smartwatches, such as the App<\/a>le Watch.<\/p>\n

As such, it should pack some high-end health and fitness sensors (like an SpO2 sensor), plus quality-of-life smartwatch features, like NFC contactless payment support, Bluetooth streaming for Spotify and other music players, and (hopefully) cellular connectivity for times when you\u2019re away from your smartphone.<\/p>\n

The strange and interesting thing here is Fitbit integration. We\u2019re relieved to see that Google is still treating Fitbit and Wear OS as two separate products (combining them could ruin Fitbit), but it looks like the software side of Fitbit could turn into a service.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a weird idea, but it\u2019s not a bad<\/em> idea. Fitbit has some of the most compelling fitness, sleep, and health tracking software available today, to the point that it puts most smartwatches and fitness trackers to shame. Accessing the Fitbit app on a third-party smartwatch would be awesome, especially if you don\u2019t want to wear the same watch or fitness tracker every day.<\/p>\n

Not to mention, Google is already bringing Fitbit integration to the Nest Hub. We could soon find ourselves in a situation where Fitbit tracking is available regardless of what hardware you use, and that\u2019s kind of awesome\u2014unless Google screws everything up, of course.<\/p>\n

Our friends at Insider<\/em> say the Pixel Watch should launch sometime next year. Of course, Google could change its mind and never release this product. We also have no proof that Google will call its smartwatch the \u201cPixel Watch,\u201d though Insider<\/em> says that some Google employees use this moniker.<\/p>\n
