OS/2

Samsung just refreshed its Galaxy Watch lineup with a new “Pro” model, Google is finally releasing a Pixel Watch, Qualcomm launched a new wearable chip, and some Wear OS 2 watches will finally get the upgrade to Wear OS 3.

It feels similar to Wear OS 2 on the Fossil Gen 6 — better than I expected but not particularly exciting.

Google Assistant is available on nearly every Wear OS 2 watch, and now, all Wear OS 3 Samsung Galaxy smartwatches.

Other Wear OS 2 devices powered by the 4100 platform haven’t gotten the Wear OS 3 upgrade yet — and possibly won’t until the Pixel Watch has had its debut.
