The oft-rumoured Pixel Watch could finally have a release date, with a new report tipping Google to launch its first in-house Wear OS smartwatch some time in 2022.
That’s according to Insider (via The Verge), who cites a person familiar with the matter as revealing that such a device will launch next year and is being developed under the codename ‘Rohan’.
The report doesn’t shed much more light on the Pixel Watch beyond its claim to confirm its existence, though additional sources speaking to The Verge said that the wearable would be positioned as an Apple Watch rival.
It’s apparently being developed by Google’s Pixel hardware division, separate from the company’s new Fitbit arm – Google having bought Fitbit for $2.1bn earlier this year.
As such, we can only speculate on a more exact Pixel Watch release date, with the annual Google I/O developer conference scheduled for May 2022 being the first potential stage for an official product reveal.
