According to a report by @OnLeaks on X and MyMobiles, the Pixel Watch 5 may retain the Qualcomm Snapdragon SW5100 processor, the same chip found in recent Pixel Watch models, instead of delivering a major performance boost. Google is reportedly increasing the RAM from 2GB to 3GB to support Gemini-powered features on Wear OS, focusing on smoother AI experiences, quicker responses, better multitasking, and improved on-device intelligence. The smartwatch is expected to retain much of its predecessor's design and display and may be introduced in both 41mm and 45mm sizes during the Made by Google event on August 12, alongside the Pixel 11 series. While pricing may see a slight increase, the biggest selling point appears to be smarter software rather than new hardware. The article is based on leaks and speculations.
