Google's upcoming Pixel Watch 5 has appeared in new leaked images ahead of its expected launch on August 12. The latest leak was posted on X by tipster Evan Blass, which focuses on both its 41mm and 45mm sizes.
The leaked images show the 41mm model in the Dark Anthracite finish, and the 45mm version in the Pyrite finish paired with an olive strap. Additionally, the watch will probably appear in Natural Silver and Warm Gold finishes.
The tipster has revealed that Google will probably add a circular domed display, a rotating crown, the existing button layout, and Google's proprietary band attachment system. The external changes will be minor compared to the Pixel 4. The sensor system on the back side will probably remain unchanged. Additionally, there will be a Gemini shortcut.
Reports also point to better battery life, improved health tracking, and the latest version of Wear OS. Google has not confirmed these details yet, but the leaked images suggest the company is focusing on improving the watch instead of giving it a completely new look.
The overall design looks very similar to the current Pixel Watch. This shows Google is building on a design that users already know and like.
Google has followed the same approach with many of its Pixel products. Instead of changing the design every year, the company improves the parts that matter most, such as battery life, software, speed, and everyday features.
This helps users enjoy a better experience without getting used to a completely new device. It also lets Google improve the software while keeping the hardware familiar. Apple and Samsung have also followed a similar strategy with many of their recent devices.

The Pixel Watch 5 may not look very different from the outside, but the expected upgrades could make everyday use much better. Improved battery life, new colors, and advanced software are changes that many users will notice.
If the leaks are correct, the Pixel Watch 5 will continue Google's habit of making small improvements that add up over time instead of making big design changes every year.
