An online leak has revealed costs and technical specifications for Google’s Pixel 11 lineup ahead of its 12 August unveiling. Data shows price hikes for all four handsets alongside revised storage tiers.
In North America, the entry-level Pixel 11 opens at $899, while European buyers face a €999 price tag. The manufacturer dropped the 128GB option, making 256GB the minimum capacity. Powered by the Tensor G6 processor and Titan M3 security unit, the device comes with 12GB or 16GB of RAM. Power comes from a 4,985mAh cell that supports 30W wired speeds and Qi2 wireless charging. For photography, the back panel holds a 48-megapixel main lens alongside a 13-megapixel ultrawide camera.
Pro series and the HiLight function
Retail figures for the flagship devices sit at $1,099 for the Pixel 11 Pro and $1,299 for the Pro XL. Meanwhile, the foldable Pixel 11 Pro Fold costs $1,899 in the US and €1,999 across Europe. Increased production expenses for memory modules drove these higher figures. Both the Pro and Pro XL top out at 1TB of storage and 16GB of RAM.
A 6.3-inch OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and 3,000 nits top brightness equips the base model. The Pro versions upgrade to LTPO screens reaching 3,600 nits. The documentation also references an unannounced tool previously known as Pixel Glow, which reports suggest Google renamed HiLight.
Triple rear cameras with 5x optical zoom appear on the Pro models. On the foldable variant, users get a 6.4-inch outer display that opens to an 8-inch main interior screen. Each phone ships with Android 17 installed. Google will formally present the hardware at its Mountain View headquarters.
Pixel 11 Pro Fold teaser
Google has officially released a teaser for its upcoming Pixel 11 Pro Fold smartphone. Following a similar promotional clip for the standard Pixel 11 Pro last week, the manufacturer is accelerating its marketing campaign ahead of the annual Made by Google hardware event scheduled for August 12.
The 15-second video continues the company’s «Ask more of your phone» marketing theme. The clip challenges consumers to «be open to what’s new» and «to what opens» in a direct reference to the foldable form factor. Visually, the teaser reveals a protruding pill-shaped cutout for the camera lenses integrated into the signature rear camera bar. While the video shows the ‘G’ logo illuminating on the back panel, industry observers consider this effect a highly stylised animation for the advert rather than a functional hardware feature.
