A massive leak has removed every ounce of mystery around Google's Pixel 11 series. The launch event is set for August 12 and we already know technical specs and US prices. According to Android Authority, the lineup will include Pixel 11, Pixel 11 Pro, Pixel 11 Pro XL, and Pixel 11 Pro Fold, with a starting price of $899.
Prices range from $899 to $1899 across four models
According to the leak, the base Pixel 11 will cost $899. The Pixel 11 Pro will go up to $1099. For the Pixel 11 Pro XL, buyers will need to budget $1299. The foldable Pixel 11 Pro Fold will reach $1899. A few days ago, rumors suggested possible price increases, but these amounts are in line with the previous generation. The new phones will aim to compete directly with Samsung and Apple in the premium segment. The difference between the Pro and Pro XL models seems largely tied to screen size and battery capacity, while the Fold remains the flagship for those seeking flexibility.

Tensor G6 and Titan M3 for power and security
Under the hood, we will find Google's Tensor G6 processor, accompanied by the Titan M3 co-processor. RAM will go up to 16GB and storage up to 1TB. This means the Pixel 11 series is ready to handle heavy workloads like generative AI tools and computational photography. The Titan M3 will provide advanced hardware protection for sensitive data. The combination of Tensor G6 and Titan M3 could also improve on-device AI processing, reducing reliance on the cloud. This is a step forward from the Tensor G5 in the current generation, with a clear focus on power efficiency.
6.3-inch display with 3000 nits for the Pixel 11
As for the standard model, the leak points to a 6.3-inch OLED panel with a resolution of 2424 x 1080 pixels. Peak brightness reaches 3000 nits and the refresh rate is adaptive between 60 and 120Hz. This combination promises excellent visibility even in direct sunlight and remarkable smoothness in everyday use. There are no details yet on the Pro displays, but it is likely Google will adopt LTPO panels with variable refresh rates up to 120Hz on those as well. Thin bezels and a punch-hole front camera should deliver an immersive experience.

Camera comparison with Pixel 8 and Google's strategy
The Pixel series has always focused on the camera, and the Pixel 11 will be no exception. For those who want to get closer to the color results of newer models, there is already a guide explaining how to improve Pixel 8 shots with Open Camera and manual white balance adjustments. The new generation should integrate further software and hardware improvements for image processing. With the Tensor G6, Google can push computational photography even further, with features like object erasing and real-time HDR stacking. The August 12 launch will also be an opportunity to see how Google positions the series against Samsung and Apple.

What remains unknown before the official presentation
Despite the full leak, some information is still missing. Availability dates, color options, and exclusive Tensor G6 features might only be revealed during the event. The leak has already built anticipation and given consumers a clear picture of what to expect. The source is the Android Authority article that published all the details. The competitive price of the base model, combined with high-end specs, could make many users consider upgrading their phone. It remains to be seen whether Google can manage production and distribution without hiccups, given the very high expectations.
