Google's latest teaser confirms Pixel Watch 2's India launch
Google has confirmed the launch of its Pixel Watch 2 in India on October 5, following its United States (US) debut on October 4.

With its unique design and advanced features, the Pixel Watch 2 will compete in the high-end smartwatch segment, offering users a comprehensive health/fitness tracking experience.
