• A teardown of the Play Services app suggests that the Pixel Watch series might gain UWB-based Watch Unlock capabilities.
• Current Pixel Watch models don’t have UWB, though, which means this might be restricted to the Pixel Watch 3.

The Pixel Watch series offers Watch Unlock functionality, allowing your Bluetooth-toting phone to unlock your wearable. It seems like Google will upgrade this feature when the Pixel Watch 3 comes out.

9to5Google dug into a recent version of the Play Services app and found references to “UWB ranging” for Watch Unlock. The outlet also found a few references to UWB-based Watch Unlock not working in countries that don’t allow the connectivity protocol.
