The Google Pixel Watch 3 quickly earned its spot as the “best overall Android smartwatch” in CNET’s list of the best smartwatches. But Google has now announced the new Pixel Watch 4, and it looks to be just as promising as its predecessor. It comes in stunning color options, with satellite SOS, Google Gemini and more.
