Tech giant Google is planning to launch an in-house smartwatch in 2022. But ahead of the official announcement, the poster images for the Pixel Watch have been revealed via YouTube. The device is expected to cost more than Fitbit's line of products and could compete with the Apple Watch line of devices.

According to the report from BGR India, the smartwatch appears to have a negligible bezel and a slight curve, with the physical button also being visible. One of the images even showcases the Pixel Watch using Google Maps. The video claims that these are official marketing assets that will be seen online soon, which avid leaker Jon Prosser allegedly captured from a leaked video.

Google apparently wants to ensure that the wearable would be comfortable to wear for the majority of the population, which means it might come in various sizes.

The watch will have basic fitness tracking features, including step counting and a heart rate monitor, with Google also reportedly working on debuting a Fitbit integration into Wear OS with the new watch when it launches. Google was earlier expected to unveil its first smartwatch alongside the Pixel 6, but the launch was reportedly delayed.

Google has started rolling out its Camera app version 8.4 to older Pixel phones, bringing camera features from Pixel 6 and 6 Pro. The update includes a few new features, including a Timer light, a manual white balance toggle, and a manual exposure toggle.
