TL;DR
- A brand new Google machine has made an look on the FCC.
- The directions for methods to view the on-device FCC E-label are just like the directions for the Pixel Watch 2.
- It’s believed that is one thing apart from the Pixel Watch 3.
In rather less than a month from now, Google will likely be holding its annual I/O occasion. Whereas we’re anticipating the agency to announce the Pixel 8a on the occasion, it’s attainable we may be in retailer for a shock {hardware} announcement.
A mysterious Google product just lately handed by the FCC. Found by 9to5Google, the unknown machine has the mannequin quantity G4SKY.
Though it’s unclear what this {hardware} could possibly be, it seems to have the identical directions for methods to view the on-device FCC E-label because the Pixel Watch 2. To view regulatory info, certification, and compliance marks, you must go to Settings > System > Regulatory Data.
An look on the FCC often means that the merchandise is near launch. Seeing because the Pixel Watch 3 is anticipated to launch alongside the Pixel 9 within the fall, it’s seemingly that is one thing totally different. Lending additional credence to this risk is the dearth of ultra-wideband (UWB) connectivity. Apparently, 5G can also be absent from the machine.
Whereas it might not have UWB or 5G, G4SKY does seem to have Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and LTE connectivity. Once you put the entire items collectively, it suggests this isn’t a Pixel 3, Pixel Pill 2, or Chromecast machine.
It’s unclear exactly what this shadowy machine could possibly be. However the outlet does provide one risk that it admits is unlikely; possibly it could possibly be a mid-range smartwatch like a Pixel Watch 2a?
No matter it seems to be, we seemingly received’t begin listening to something about it till we get nearer to its launch. Whether or not that is at Google I/O or at another time is anybody’s guess.
