Google officially revealed the Pixel 11 series — Pixel 11, Pixel 11 Pro, and Pixel 11 Pro XL — on August 12 at its Made by Google event in New York, with all three phones powered by the new Tensor G6 chip and running Android 17.

Google cut the 128GB storage tier this generation, so every Pixel 11 model now starts at 256GB — pushing the entry price for the base Pixel 11 to $899, $80 more than last year's cheapest Pixel 10 configuration.

Pre-orders are open now, with the phones shipping August 20; camera upgrades and deeper Gemini integration, including a "Magic Capture" feature for picking the best frame from a burst, are the headline software additions.
