The Google Pixel Watch 2 will be unveiled at Google's October 4 Made by Google event, and the latest leaks have us more excited than ever about potential new features.
The Pixel Watch 2 may receive two new metal strap options to give the smartwatch a distinct appearance.
If the Apple Watch Series 9 had gotten this upgrade, there's no doubt the Pixel Watch 2 and Galaxy Watch 6 would have followed. Instead, we'll have to keep waiting or choose less "smart" watches.

Because I'm the editor of Engadget by day and a volunteer coach in my free time, I often get asked which GPS watch or fitness tracker to buy. (People also ask what I'm wearing and the answer is: All of them. I am testing all of them.) For my part, the best running watches are quick to lock in a GPS signal, offer accurate distance and pace tracking, last a long time on a charge, are comfortable to wear and easy to use.
