It will also be able to detect if the wearer’s pulse stops, such as during a cardiac arrest, sounding an alarm and calling for help.

The Pixel Buds Pro 2 are 27% smaller and 24% lighter than their predecessors, with improved noise cancelling. The earbuds will be the first to support Gemini Live for natural conversations with the AI assistant on the go.

The Pixel Watch 3 costs from £349 (€399/$349/A$579) and the Pixel Buds Pro 2 cost £219 (€249/$229/A$379), shipping on 26 September.
