According to new reports, the Pixel Watch and the Pixel 7 series will not begin shipping simultaneously. Instead, while Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro pre-orders should reach people in mid-October, the Pixel Watch will be held back until early November. Pricing in the Eurozone and the US has leaked too, as have various colour combinations.

Pricing details for the Pixel Watch have surfaced ahead of the device's long-awaited release. Already confirmed for an October 6 release, the Pixel Watch should launch in Bluetooth and LTE variants, matching its competitors like the Apple Watch Series 8 and the Samsung Galaxy Watch5 series. However, Google is only expected to offer the Pixel Watch in a single size and with a modified Exynos 9110, the chipset that Samsung launched in 2018 with the Galaxy Watch Active2.

As one image below shows, the Pixel Watch will start at US$349.99 with Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity. Purportedly, the same retail source confirmed US$399.99 pricing for the LTE model. Additionally, the Pixel Watch should be available in the following colour options:

  • Bluetooth/Wi-Fi

    • Black case/Obsidian band
    • Silver case/Chalk band
    • Gold case/Hazel band

  • LTE

    • Black case/Obsidian band
    • Gold case/Hazel band
    • Silver case/Charcoal band

For reference, 9to5Google alleges that 'Chalk' is actually off-white, whereas 'Charcoal' is dark grey. Reputedly, the Pixel Watch will cost as much in Europe as it does in the US. Hence, expect Google to price the smartwatch at €349.99 and €399.99 for Bluetooth and LTE variants, respectively. Surprisingly, the Pixel Watch may ship after the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro. According to Caschys Blog, Google will start delivering Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro pre-orders from October 18. Conversely, the Pixel Watch will not reach people until November 4, over two months after Samsung started shipping the Galaxy Watch5 series.
