Google’s first smartwatch was filmed live. Someone forgot the American Pixel Watch in a restaurant
A series of rumors that Google is about to introduce its first smartwatch have received live confirmation of this – a happy visitor to one of the US restaurants managed to get acquainted with the device live and take these photos. Apparently, someone simply forgot the prototype of an important novelty while visiting the catering.
According to preliminary data, the Pixel Watch (the code name of the novelty is Rohan) was supposed to be a thin device with a round screen – that’s all it is. Alas, the clock did not load (the glowing logo is the maximum that the prototype is capable of), so it will not be possible to evaluate the interface, but in general it should be made in the same minimalist vein as the exterior. There is no doubt that Wear OS is available in the latest version.
The person who found the watch describes the bottom panel as follows: “Looks like metal but feels glassy”.
The strap is attached directly to the case using some kind of tricky mechanism, so the Pixel Watch is not compatible with straps for other devices.
How the Pixel Watch charges is unclear. There are no special holes for this on the case, and there was no charger at the find site. The watch will most likely support wireless charging, but wired should also be implemented.
The official premiere of the Pixel Watch is expected at the Google I / O event on May 11th. On this day, Google may introduce some other new items. For example, official details about the Pixel 7 are waiting.

Is this the success of the expensive Watch Ultra? Apple says two-thirds of its watch buyers last quarter were new customers
Apple said that it has managed to attract many new customers to its smartwatches.
After publishing its latest quarterly report, the company revealed that in the past quarter, almost two-thirds of Apple Watch customers (nearly 66%) were new customers for this type of device, meaning they had never owned an Apple Watch before.
It is quite possible that this is due to the announcement of the Watch Ultra model, which, in general, is quite different from the usual versions, and is positioned differently.
At the same time, we know from the report that sales of wearable and home electronics in the last quarter at Apple decreased slightly. Unfortunately, Apple does not speak separately about watch sales – it is quite possible that sales have just grown in this segment.
Also recall that last year Apple took 85% of all profits in the smartphone market.
Mobfree has introduced a two-way wireless charger for the Apple Watch and other smartwatches.
This charger, which resembles a flash drive, connects to the USB-C connector, as shown in the photo. It can also be connected to a fast charging adapter with a USB-C connector.
The manufacturer claims that the new charger supports Apple Watch starting from the second generation, as well as all generations of smart watches Samsung Galaxy Watch.
At the stage of collective financing on the Kickstarter platform, those who wish can order a novelty for $ 20.
Deliveries to first customers are scheduled for June 2023.
BOE showcased its latest developments at the ISE 2023 European Professional Audiovisual Show, including a large monitor for viewing 3D content without glasses.
This 110″ 8K 3D monitor supports 120Hz refresh rate. The manufacturer claims that the three-dimensional image on the TV screen can be seen by several users from different angles.
The TV uses innovative lens array technology combined with MiniLED and quantum dot backlight technology. So far, users can see stereoscopic images at a distance of no more than 1.5 m from the screen. However, the manufacturer states that work is ongoing, so the distance will be significantly increased in the future. Such TVs are planned to be widely used in advertising, exhibitions and many other scenarios.
BOE also showcased the first 162-inch MiniLED TV with a peak brightness of 1000 cd/m2new 65″ ultra-slim 8K TVs with 3024 local dimming zones, an 86″ interactive touch screen panel and more.
