Google Pixel 11 starts at $899 with doubled storage
Google unveiled the Pixel 11, Pixel 11 Pro, Pixel 11 Pro XL and Pixel 11 Pro Fold on August 12, 2026, with prices starting at $899.
The Pixel 11 costs $100 more than the Pixel 10 but doubles storage to 256GB with 12GB of RAM. The Pixel 11 Pro starts at $1,099 with the same base storage and RAM, expandable up to 1TB of storage and 16GB of RAM. The 6.8-inch Pixel 11 Pro XL starts at $1,299 with the same storage and RAM options as the Pro.
All four models run on Google's Tensor G6 chip, which the company says improves performance by up to 25 percent over the previous generation.
Camera upgrades include up to 30x zoom on the Pixel 11. The Pro series gets a 1/1.3-inch 50-megapixel main sensor and a redesigned telephoto sensor that captures 32 percent more light. The Pro can zoom to 120x, has a 42-megapixel selfie camera, and shoots in low light up to 4.5 times faster with Instant Night Sight.
New software tools include Magic Capture, which automatically captures share-ready photos and videos, and Camera Looks for custom photo styles. The Pro series records stabilized 8K video with Pro Stable Video and Video Boost, and a Creator Suite offers trimming, rearranging, teleprompter and speech clarity tools. Gemini Intelligence pulls more context from supported apps, Live Translate works on videos and podcasts, and Circle to Search works directly through the camera.
The Pixel 11 and Pro models add Extreme Charging Mode, which prioritizes charging over other tasks for faster power-ups. HiLight colored LEDs around the camera flash on the Pro and Pro XL alert users to calls or Gemini activation. A spec comparison for the Pixel 11 Pro Fold against its predecessor and Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 8 series is also available.
