Let’s collect you everything we think we know about the future Google Pixel 11the family of mobile phones that is the successor to the current ones Pixel 10. As is usual in the industry, weeks and months before the launch of the most anticipated mobile phones, the Internet is filled with all kinds of leaks, and we will tell you the most interesting and plausible.
We are going to start by talking to you about the possible presentation dates of the new Google Pixel 11, because based on experience we can already narrow the range quite a bit. Then we will tell you the models that there may be, to finish by going into the features that have been leaked.
Finally, you should know that the Pixel 11 will be the first to arrive with Android 17 serial. And as usual, you will also do so enjoying some exclusive featuresin addition to being one of the first where you can try all the other new features of the operating system.
When do we think the Google Pixel 11 will come out
Although historically Google used to present its phones in the months of October, the strategy has been changing to have a greater role, advancing the presentations by a few months. We will update this article periodically to add new leaks.
We hope that the Pixel 11 will be presented in mid-August 2026during the “Made by Google” event. As we have seen in the latest models, the normal thing is that The launch is at the end of the montha couple of weeks after the announcement.
What models are expected to exist?
As we have seen in Google internal documents that have been leaked, it seems that the current structure of four high-end devices. They would be the following:
- Pixel 11 (codename “cubs”)
- Pixel 11 Pro (codename “grizzly”)
- Pixel 11 Pro XL (codename “kodiak”)
- Pixel 11 Pro Fold (code name “yogi”)
In addition to this, months later a version 11a will arrivewhich like all those in the A range will have less power and will be more economical, although it will maintain some of the characteristics of its older brothers.
What do we know so far
Now, we are going to compile everything that has been leaked so far about the different components of the future Pixel 11 family. We are going to touch on what we know about the camera, the processors and other of its internal components.
Design, size and screens
According to the latest CAD-based renders leaked by OnLeaks and Android Headlinesit is expected that Pixels maintain their design languageand that there are no drastic changes in its appearance. This means that the edges and rounded corners will remain flat.
The change that does seem to occur is that screen bezels will be thinner. The iconic horizontal camera module that makes these phones so recognizable will also be maintained, although in this case it seems that the panel will be made of completely black glass.
Regarding the dimensions, everything points because they will be almost the same size as the previous generation. The only thing that will change is that they are expected to be a little thinner, going from 8.5 to 8.4 millimeters on the Pixel 11 Pro.
As for the displays, we can expect a 6.3-inch LTPO OLED panel, while the Pro XL model will be 6.8 inches. So far everything is normal, no news, although some media such as Mobiflip suggest that Google could release new Samsung M16 OLED panels. This would be a major change, and would mean more maximum brightness and greater energy efficiency.
Finally, on the Mystic Leaks Telegram channel, which specializes in leaks, the term is mentioned “Pixel Glow”. This would be an addition of RGB LED lights like the one you can find on mobile phones like those from the manufacturer Nothing. This term was mentioned in a leak where the cameras of the Pixel 11 Pro are also detailed and that the Tensor G6 processor will be used.
Cameras and photography
As for the main cameras, it is expected that there will be continuity with a triple camera with a 50 megapixel main sensor, an ultra wide angle and a 5x telephoto lens. We will also have improved AI processing for aspects such as cinematic blur, low light video and surely other aspects.
Yes, more changes are expected on the front of the device, especially in biometrics. One of the first leaks pointed out that Google could bring back the infrared camera that we last saw on the Pixel 4, allowing the device to have 3D facial recognition at the level of Face ID of iPhones.
With this, the Pixel could authorize payments and unlock the screen with your face even in the dark. However, this so-called ‘Project Tuscany’ of the infrared camera has barely appeared in leaks, so it is still early to know if it is true.
Processor and memory
The processor is possibly the field where the Pixel 11 will change the most. The leaks say that the new Tensor G6 will be manufactured by TSMC, the same manufacturer as the Pixel 10 after years of trusting Samsung, and that a 2 nanometer process will be used.
Tensor processors have always followed Qualcomm’s Snapdragon chips, and with this change Google hopes surpass them in power and efficiency. In fact, there are leaks that suggest that the new Google chip will have 15% higher performancein addition to an improvement in thermal and energy efficiency of 30%. This would help a lot to improve the autonomy of the device.
The leaks also talk about 12 GB of RAM as a base, with which to help run the advanced functions of Gemini directly on the device in a fluid way. Additionally, we also expect a new Titan M3 security chip.
Battery and connectivity
We hope that the battery of the next Pixel 11 will be about 5,000 mAh for the base modeland greater capacities for the XL model, although it is not expected to be much higher either. All this with a fast charge that could be about 30W, and the Qi2 magnetic charging standard.
And finally, it seems that Google seems willing to improve the connectivity of your next Pixel. In its days of Samsung chips it had always been criticized for this, and now the leaks point that they will stop using the South Korean company’s 5G modems to bet on the new MediaTek M90 modem. With this change, Google hopes to offer faster connection speed, more stability and less battery consumption.
Expected price for the Pixel 11
For now, There are no leaks that talk about prices at which these devices could come to market. In fact, seeing how the world is two things can happen: that it tries to maintain the 899 of its current base model, or that there is an increase caused by the memory crisis.
Here, the normal thing is that leaks related to prices begin to arrive when the launch date approaches, but it will not be until its presentation in August when we finally clear up doubts.
