Ahead of the launch tomorrow, Google has released factory images for the Pixel Watch 3.
Google is not differentiating between the 41 and 45mm sizes, just whether it has Bluetooth/Wi-Fi or LTE. This is similar to past years, with the entry Pixel Watch 3 codenamed “solios” and the cellular model “seluna.”
Update: They are portmanteaus: selene + luna = seluna and sol + helios = solios. Google is once again referencing Roman and Greek mythology.
- Selene: Greek goddess of the moon.
- Helios: Greek god of the sun.
- Sol is the Roman equivalent of Helios
- Luna is the Roman equivalent of Selene
- “seluna” for Pixel Watch 3 (LTE) — 14.0.0 (AW2A.240903.001.A3, Sep 2024)
- “solios” for Pixel Watch 3 (Bluetooth/Wi-Fi) — 14.0.0 (AW2A.240903.001.A4, Sep 2024)
Wear OS 5 is based on Android 14 and running the September 2024 security patch, which has yet to be released for the original Pixel Watch or the Pixel Watch 2.
The Pixel Watch 3 factory images join the Pixel 9 series:
