The Pixel 11 is an Android smartphone designed, developed, manufactured, and marketed by Google as part of the Google Pixel product line. It will serve as the successor to the Pixel 10, with a similar feature set and design. Along with the rest of the Pixel 11 series, it is expected to debut with Gemini Intelligence, an agentic AI framework that would be powered by Google's Gemini models, capable of performing various tasks on behalf of the user. It will be announced on August 12, 2026.

History

On July 7, 2026, Google sent out invites for the next Made by Google event, set for August 12 in New York City. The Pixel 11's design was officially teased in a video on July 15, 2026, showing off the Pixel 11 lineup.

It will be officially announced on August 12, along with the rest of the lineup, consisting of the Pixel 11 Pro, Pixel 11 Pro XL, and Pixel 11 Pro Fold. It is also expected to debut alongside the Pixel Watch 5, while some reports make mention of a new Pixel Tag tracker, found in leaked Amazon page listings for the phones. Preorders are expected to begin on the same day, with a release date set for August 20 in the United States.

Specifications

Design

Pixel 11 will retain the same shape that was introduced with the Pixel 9 series, with flat sides and more-rounded corners, and a camera bar that is independent from the rest of the frame. Compared to the Pixel 10, the glass panel covering the lenses, microphone, and autofocus sensors on the camera bar now extends all the way to the right edge, covering over the flash and making it symmetrical.

It will be available in these four colors: Obsidian, Frost, Pistachio, and Hibiscus.

Hardware

The phone's display resolution will remain the same at FHD+ 1080p and 120Hz refresh rate, but will use a new Samsung M16 OLED panel that increases brightness, while reducing battery usage and improving color accuracy.

While the rear cameras retain the same 48MP wide-angle, 13MP ultrawide, and 10.8MP telephoto sensors, the front-facing camera is changed to a 13MP. The flash next to the rear cameras contains an array of RGB LEDs, used to power a new feature called Pixel Glow.

The sixth-generation Tensor G6 custom System-on-Chip (SoC) will contain many changes under the hood. The second year Google has used TSMC to produce its custom silicon, the die size shrinks down to 2nm, using the N2 process node. This makes it the second smartphone brand to adopt a 2nm chip, the first being the Galaxy S26 Series powered by the Exynos 2600. The seven CPU cores use the new ARM Cortex C1-series, consisting of a single Cortex C1-Ultra core and six C1-Pro cores. The GPU is an Imagination PowerVR CXTP-48-1536. CXTP is a newly modified variant of the flagship CXT series from 2021; the extra "P" denotes power efficiency For the first time since the adoption of Tensor, the Samsung Exynos modems are dropped in favor of the MediaTek M90, which is said to reduce power drainage issues caused by signal-hunting, where the device struggles to find or stay connected to a mobile network. These improvements suggest that Tensor G6 will provide additional performance for heavy workloads, and draw less power due to the smaller 2nm scale.

With Tensor G6 comes an updated Titan M3 security module.

Software

The Pixel 11 Series will launch with Android 17.

The Pixel 11 series will include Gemini Intelligence, consisting of a number of agentic A! tools, suggestions, and software cues throughout Android and select apps. It is powered by Google's Gemini models in the cloud and Gemma models which run on-device.

Proactive Assistance is the updated version of Magic Cue, which originally launched with the Pixel 10 Series.
