The latest leaks about the Pixel Watch 3 have revealed key details, including the processor and RAM.
According to a recent report by Android Headlines, the Pixel Watch 3 will use the same Qualcomm Snapdragon Wear 5100 chip as its predecessor. This chip comes with a Cortex M33 co-processor, also carried over from the original model. The watch will have 2GB of RAM and 32GB of storage, just like last year’s version.
Earlier information from retail leaks indicated that Google aims for the Pixel Watch 3 to last 24 hours with the always-on display (AOD) activated. If you use Battery Saver mode, it can last up to 36 hours. The 41 mm model features a 307 mAh battery (slightly up from the previous 306 mAh), while the 45 mm model has a 420 mAh battery.
One of the significant upgrades is the display’s 1-60Hz adaptive refresh rate. This feature will enhance battery efficiency, with the always-on display capable of dimming down to 1 nit and brightening up to 2,000 nits, an improvement from the current 1,000 nits.
These specifications suggest that the Pixel Watch 3 will continue to build on its predecessor’s strengths, offering familiar performance with some enhanced features.
