After seeing a preview of the Pixel Watch and Pixel 7 designs at Google I/O 2022, we wondered how much its new offering will cost. A new leak has just revealed the price and technical data sheet for Google’s first connected watch. The price of the Pixel Watch will be close to that of the Apple Watch 8, so it’s simply not affordable.
- Google’s Pixel Watch should have 4G and Wifi versions
- The 4G and Wifi models are expected to cost $350 and $400, respectively.
- Google Pixel Watch will launch on October 6
Pixel Watch: Google’s smartwatch will be as expensive as the Apple Watch 8
According to the documents obtained 9to5Google, the basic WiFi version of the Google Pixel Watch costs $350. By comparison, the Pixel Watch 4G version could cost $400, a difference of only $50.
On the other hand, the Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 starts at $280, and the cheapest Apple Watch SE 2022 starts at $250. As such, the price of the Pixel Watch puts it at the high end of the market, on par with the Apple Watch 8 GPS.

In addition to the price, the color of the Pixel Watch is also mentioned. Both versions should have black, gold and silver casings. Aside from the silver case, the strap colors for both watches will be similar. But we can assume that these bracelets are replaceable.
