In terms of system, Pixel Watch 2 is equipped with WearOS 4 system based on Android 13. It is worth noting that the Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 and Galaxy Watch 6 Classic are the first Wear OS 4 smartwatches. There are three models of Pixel Watch 2, namely G4TSL, GC368 and GD2WG. Among them, G4TSL is a model that supports Bluetooth/Wi-Fi and has four straps to choose from: plastic movable strap, metal mesh strap, metal chain strap and metal thin strap.
One of the most anticipated features of this device is SpO2 tracking, which is a common health feature on most other flagship smartwatches like the Apple Watch and Galaxy Watch. SpO2 tracking measures the oxygen saturation levels in the blood, which can be an indicator of respiratory health. It should also have a larger size option to appeal to the Big Watch crowd. This is a smart move by Google, as the large size makes it easier to use, especially for readability.

With its customizable watch faces and anticipated health features, it has the potential to be a strong competitor. The larger size option and newer chipset will likely make it a more appealing device. There are also multiple models of this device which will give users more options.
