Apparently October is launch season for first-party devices from Google And Microsoft, with the latter scheduling a product launch event for October 12th (expect new Surface hardware), and the former holding an event on October 6th to officially launch the Pixel 7, Pixel 7 Pro, Pixel Watch, and possibly other hardware.
A new leak suggests that the phones will have the same starting prices as the Pixel 6 series. And a new teaser video published by Google gives us a closer look at the Pixel Watch… and its big bezel.
Here’s a roundup of recent tech news from around the web.
Google has posted a short video to highlight the design of the upcoming Pixel Watch, but many close observers are noting that it also suggests the watch will have a rather large bezel that’s only artfully hidden by watch faces with black backgrounds. https://t.co/LD1YoaARds
