- Wear OS 6 is now available for Pixel Watch 3 and Pixel Watch 2, ahead of the Pixel Watch 4’s release date.
- The update brings with it a handful of visual changes, including adaptive color theming.
- The first-generation Pixel Watch hasn’t received the update yet, but it may soon.
Google’s newest wearable, the Pixel Watch 4, hits store shelves tomorrow. Android Authority‘s Kaitlyn Cimino gave the watch a glowing review, praising its refined design, display, and health tracking. She also liked the visual refresh and new features included in Wear OS 6. Today, in a notably pro-consumer move from Google, that update has begun rolling out to older Pixel Watch devices.
As spotted by 9to5Google, the Wear OS 6 update is now available for both Pixel Watch 3 and Pixel Watch 2. I’m seeing the update on my own Pixel Watch 3 in the US, and on a post on the Pixel Watch subreddit from user Loud-Possibility4395, multiple commenters say they’ve initiated the update. One mentions downloading Wear OS 6 in Germany, too, implying this is a wide rollout.
