Google releases Pixel Watch 5: minor hardware upgrade, AI and health features become core selling points On August 12th, according to The Verge, Google officially released the Pixel Watch 5, priced at $399, an increase of $50 from the previous generation. Hardware updates are limited, with only faster Qualcomm processors, slightly increased battery capacity, and the addition of satin yellow iron ore color scheme and Steph Curry special edition. The biggest highlight of this generation is focused on the software level: Gemini has added an offline mode, which supports basic operations such as setting timers and starting applications in a network free environment (but the response speed is significantly slower in offline mode); At the same time, Gemini will be more proactive in providing scenario based suggestions, such as directly accessing Google Calendar from the wrist when receiving a text message inquiring about the schedule. In addition, the dial has added real-time information icons that can display timers, estimated Uber arrival times, and exercise data in real-time. Pinching and wrist flipping gestures are also integrated more deeply with WearOS 7.
