Pixel Watch and Pixel 6a reports, Best of MWC 2022 awards, plus more tech news you need to know today!
☕ Good morning! Day 3 of MWC 2022 and this morning, due to some street maintenance, we lost water to the apartment. Thankfully, that was after the morning rush of showers for most of us. Reports are that the Google Pixel 6a, which we fully expect, and the Google Pixel Watch, which remains a bit of a unicorn, have listed on a US carrier site. Sources passed on to Android Police that the smartwatch, Google’s first dedicated wearable, and Google’s next affordable phone went live on a US carrier’s inventory system. The only first hard detail, per the report, is that the Pixel Watch will come with 32GB of storage. That one piece of data alone tells us a bit: it’s double the Samsung Galaxy 4, and continues the pattern of reports that suggest it’ll be priced like an Apple Watch. Of course, Google might be leaning on the engineering of FitBit, which it acquired just over a year ago. The wearable had a bunch of details spill late last year, too, though it’s been so long-awaited that all kinds of rumors have come and gone over the years.
