Pixel Watch 2 and Apple Watch Ultra 2 are rumored to adopt a featherweight design

Google Pixel Watch how to extend battery life Sunlight Boost

Key smartwatch models are set to shed some weight as recent leaks show Apple and Google will be making their wearables more lightweight.

9To5Google claims in a recent report that the case on the upcoming Pixel Watch 2 will be made out of aluminum instead of stainless steel. For the sake of comparison, the current Pixel Watch weighs 36 grams without a wristband, making it one of the heaviest Android wearables out there. If the company does go for an aluminum construction, the Pixel Watch 2 may have a weight more akin to the Fitbit Sense 2, which, as 9To5Google points out, weighs a measly 26 grams.
