The Google Pixel Watch 4 introduces a curved Acuta 360 display with 10% more screen and 16% smaller bezel, along with brighter visuals, faster charging, longer battery life, and new features like standalone SOS satellite service and AI smart replies, all at the same price as previous models, launching in October.
Apple's emergency SOS messaging via satellite, initially free for two years for iPhone 14 users, was extended for another year in 2023. As of November 15, 2024, no new extension has been announced, leaving early iPhone 14 adopters in their last free year. The service remains free for newer iPhone models, and Apple has invested $1.5 billion in its satellite partner, Globalstar, suggesting continued support. While a future paid model is possible, the SOS feature is likely to remain free due to its perceived value.
