It is also said to have some integration with other software aesthetic in line with Google's new Material You design, which was introduced along with the Android 12.
According to the story by Screen Rant, Google app's very own code has also just recently dropped some clues as well. The upcoming smartwatch by Google is said to offer a better version of the Google Assistant as well as some new exclusive features that make it stand out in comparison with its competition.

The new virtual assistant could also be getting a boost in speed. Rumors are now suggesting that Google Assistant on the upcoming smartwatch will be relying on certain on-device processing in order to be able to swiftly respond and accomplish certain tasks.
The Pixel Watch has reportedly already been listed on the database of a certain inventory system belonging to an unnamed US carrier, according to Android Police.
The smartwatch was previously under the "Rohan" codename and will come in at least three color options. These options include black, gray, and gold.
Google Pixel 6 Series Colors
Alleged product renders of the Google smartwatch also started to appear a few months ago. These renders show the device in different colors, which include sky blue and orange. These colors are seen in Google's latest Pixel 6 series as well.
The report also notes that the upcoming Pixel Watch could come out with a variant that has cellular connectivity similar to the Galaxy Watch by Samsung and the Apple Watch lineup.
As of writing, there is still no information regarding the phone's inner specs or any other features expected to launch with the first ever Google smartwatch.
