Contrary to the lead-up of most Google devices, few details have leaked about the follow-up to the Pixel Watch. However, that may have just changed after a new leak just surfaced. We may now know about the Pixel Watch 2’s processor, battery life, and some of the specs.

Google could be thinking about changing the chip in the Pixel Watch 2, according to a report from 9to5Google. The outlet’s sources claim the smartwatch might ditch the Exynos processor in favor of a Qualcomm Snapdragon chip from the latest W5 generation. This could be the Snapdragon W5 Plus Gen 1, which is featured in the TicWatch Pro 5, or it could be a standard Snapdragon W5 Gen 1 SoC.
