As excitement rises for the launch of the those looking to buy the Pixel 8 Pro as soon as possible have another reason to get ready to order quickly. Google could be offering a stunning addition to the Pixel 8 Pro.
The two new handsets will be launched at the “Made By Google” event taking place on October 4th in New York. Alongside the first smartphones to sell with Android 14 out of the box is Google’s second Pixel wearable. The Pixel Watch 2 comes with new biosensors, increased performance, and new fashionable choices for digital designs and physical wristbands.
Ahead of the launch, a number of promotional images from the US campaigns have leaked. It’s promoting the pre-order window for the Pixel 8 Pro - which will presumably open at the end of the “Made By Google” event and offers a free Pixel Watch 2 for those ordering the Pixel 8 Pro.
When Google launched the first Pixel Watch in late 2022, it was priced at $349 for the Wi-Fi only model (and $399 for the Wi-Fi/LTE variant). That’s a not-inexpensive peripheral to add to the rising price of the main Pixel phones. This is where Google’s offer of a free Pixel Watch 2 accompanying the Pixel 8 Pro become an attractive choice.
Google offered a similar package last year, with the Pixel 7 Pro pre-orders offering the first Pixel Watch (while Pixel 7 pre-orders were offered a pair of Pixel Buds Pro).
Google is set to launch the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro handsets on October 4th, and this week, we have the clearest look at the new design of the cutting-edge Android smartphones.

Update: September 24th: With smartphone photography remaining a key part of any marketing message, Google’s use of artificial intelligence and machine learning to improve the editing tools on previous Pixel handsets helped the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro stand out with easy-to-understand features such as “Magic Eraser” which quickly removed unwanted elements from a picture.
