With the Made by Google 2024 product expected next month, the Pixel Watch 3 has arrived at the FCC for regulatory approval.
Four model numbers appeared with the regulator on Sunday. This is the Pixel Watch 3 — and not the Pixel 9 — as the steps to access the FCC E-Label are similar to Google’s existing Wear OS devices: Settings > System > Regulatory information.
All four Pixel Watch 3 models support Ultra-Wideband and 5GHz Wi-Fi. We reported in March that Google was working on using UWB to improve Watch Unlock with Pixel phones.
Meanwhile, the first two generations of Pixel Watch only support 802.11 b/g/n 2.4GHz. Expect 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac/ax this year.
Half of them have LTE connectivity, while the other two only have Bluetooth and Wi-Fi.
GBDU9 and GG3HH were tested with a total of eight bands, while GGE4J and GRY0E are only reported to have five bands. This could indicate the split between the expected 41mm and 45mm sizes. Last year, Google dropped the band types in its FCC filing for the Pixel Watch 2. That won’t be the case in 2024.
