The Google Pixel Watch 5 aims to be a smartwatch that 'works quietly in the background, allowing you to fully focus on the important moments,' and a key feature for achieving this is the 'At a Glance' function, which is scheduled to be released in the future.

'At a Glance' is a feature that delivers dynamic, situation-specific, up-to-date information directly to your watch face at the right time. For example, it can display your boarding pass the moment you enter the airport, or show you the number of remaining stops during your morning commute, ensuring you can always check important information on your wrist.



The Google Pixel Watch, starting with the Google Pixel Watch 4 released in 2025, features a '

raise to talk ' function. This 'raise to talk' function activates Gemini when you raise your hand.

The 'raise your hand to speak' function has been significantly enhanced, making smartwatch operation smoother and more comfortable. Simply raise your wrist and speak to Gemini to directly perform actions such as 'start a workout,' 'set a timer,' and 'check dinner reservation information from Gmail.'

Furthermore, the upcoming 'Gemini Intelligence' feature will enable more proactive suggestions. For example, if a loved one asks when family dinner is scheduled, Gemini will automatically find the relevant information in your contacts and display it on your watch.



The Google Pixel Watch 5 features a Qualcomm Snapdragon W5 Gen 2 Accelerated processor and a power-efficient dual-chip architecture, with 50% more RAM and 12% better CPU performance than the previous generation model. This results in a 20% faster processing speed, enabling you to perform any proactive analysis or action instantly.

Furthermore, the Google Pixel Watch 5 boasts twice the accuracy of its previous generation's GPS route tracking, allowing it to accurately track your location even in challenging environments such as 'urban areas with towering skyscrapers' and 'tree-covered trails.' It also enables the creation of personalized strength training plans using

Google Health Coach . Beyond simple workout planning, it can analyze recovery metrics such as sleep and heart rate variability (HRV) to suggest appropriate recommendations based on your situation.



The Google Pixel Watch 5 also offers the newly introduced ' Health Guardian ' feature to support your health and safety.

Based on state-of-the-art 'Health Foundation Models' trained on billions of minutes of sensor data from consenting users and rigorously validated against the gold standard of clinical measurements, these models generate three new monthly trend summaries: 'Vascular Stress,' 'Sleep Breathing Quality Trends,' and 'Metabolic Stress.' These features provide early visibility into metabolic, respiratory, and circulatory changes, offering clear insights to help with long-term health management. However, the first detailed summary from Health Guardian will arrive one month after wearing the Google Pixel Watch 5. Health Guardian's monthly summaries will be gradually made available across Google's wearable portfolio, including the new Google Fitbit Air.



Battery life is up to 40 hours for the 41mm model and up to 30 hours for the 45mm model.

The Google Pixel Watch 5 is available for pre-order starting August 12, 2026, with a release date of August 20. The price is as follows:

Google Pixel Watch 5 (41 mm Bluetooth/Wi-Fi model): ¥62,800 (tax included)
