There’s not much left until the presentation of Google’s new Pixel products, led by the new Pixel 9 mobile phone range, consisting of more models than ever and with major changes in design and hardware. However, these changes will not be cheap and the price of the Google Pixel 9 will, once again, be higher than that of the last generation.
Unfortunately, it seems that Google has made a habit of increasing the prices of its products in Europe every year; and mobile phones are not the only ones affected. The Made by Google event will also serve to present the company’s new smartwatches, and the latest leak indicates a price increase for these devices as well. At least, this also means that Europe would finally receive more watch models.
Like last time, this leak comes from the French page Deadlabs Laboratorieswhich would have obtained the price list of the new Google products for the French market; We can therefore expect similar, if not identical, figures on the Spanish market. And these are high figures.
To begin with, the leak confirms that The price of the basic Google Pixel Watch 3 will be 399 dollars; This is exactly the same price as the Google Pixel Watch 2 already available in our country, so there is not much to complain about in this regard. This makes sense, since the Pixel Watch 3 should be very similar to the current one, with most of the differences centered on a larger screen thanks to thinner edges.
Let’s remember that the first Pixel Watch did not arrive in Europe; In addition, the Pixel Watch 2 was only available in its most basic version. This could change with the Pixel Watch 3, which would finally have a 4G LTE version in Europe that would cost 499 dollars; The problem is that this price is higher than what other countries had with the Pixel Watch 2. At least we will have the option to choose between one and the other.
Speaking of choices, the biggest news for the Pixel Watch 3 would be a new larger model, 45mm versus the 41mm of the base model. It is possible that is called “Pixel Watch 3 XL”, although apparently the final decision has not been made. Either way, the new model will be larger, which should translate into a larger screen and a larger battery.
The Pixel Watch 3 XL would have a starting price of 449 dollars for the basic version, while the version with 4G LTE connectivity would cost 549 dollars. These are figures that are not accessible to everyone, and that can encourage many people to look elsewhere. Recall that last week the new Galaxy Watch 7 was presented, with lower prices and also with the same Wear OS 5 system that the Pixel Watch 3 should have; The 40mm Galaxy Watch 7 starts at 319 dollars and the 44mm one at 369 dollars.
