What’s happened? If you own an older Google Pixel Watch, such as the Watch 2 or the Watch 3, and you didn’t splurge your money on the latest one, there’s good news for you.

Why is this important? Google is pushing a Wear OS 6 OTA update to all eligible devices, starting from October 8. The complete rollout will take a few weeks, depending on the region, carrier, and the device.

Why should I care? If you own an older Pixel Watch, the Wear OS 6 update will give it a fresh look and add new features. Further, your smartwatch will last longer between charges.

OK, what’s next? The Pixel Watch 4, pre-installed with the Wear OS 6 update, will hit shelves on October 9, 2025.

At the time, the acquisition looked like a strategic bet on AI wearables. Now it appears Meta may be ready to cash in.
