- Google has started to send the Pixel Watch to retail stores.
- One mallgoer in Australia received a random Fast Pair notification to set up a Pixel Watch.
- The notification also confirmed that a device app is needed for setup.
We’re only a week away from Google’s anticipated hardware event where the company will officially show off the Pixel 7 series and its Pixel Watch. Ahead of the event, however, a Pixel Watch was found at a Target distribution center last weekend. Now it seems another Pixel Watch was discovered in the wild thanks to a Fast Pair notification.
An Australian Redditor, Andad87, who was looking through Instagram while at a shopping mall received a Fast Pair notification after walking by an electronics retail store. It turns out what prompted the notification was an active Pixel Watch requesting to be set up. The notification showed a picture of a Pixel Watch with an Obsidian band.
