Google has confirmed the one date that matters, but leakers have taken care of nearly everything else. The company has officially teased the Pixel 11 and set its full unveiling for the Made by Google event on August 12, 2026, with preorders opening the same day. The keynote is scheduled for 6:00 PM Eastern in New York City, and the Pixel 11 Pro Fold and Pixel Watch 5 are widely expected to share the stage. Big Apple BuddyThe Hans India
Yet by now there’s very little left to reveal. In a listing error, Google’s own Amazon storefront briefly published the entire Pixel 11 lineup — prices, storage tiers, colors, and battery specs for all four models — weeks before the official reveal, before the page was pulled down. Combined with a steady stream of press renders, this is arguably the most thoroughly leaked Pixel launch in the phone’s history. The Pixel Store
Four models, one familiar shape
Leaks point to an incremental cycle with four models — the Pixel 11, Pixel 11 Pro, Pixel 11 Pro XL and Pixel 11 Pro Fold — with basic designs, screen sizes and resolutions largely unchanged from the Pixel 10 lineup. Where things get interesting is color. The standard Pixel 11 is said to carry the boldest finishes, including a vibrant pink dubbed “Fuchsia” — possibly the most daring color Google has applied to a flagship in years — alongside a pale-lavender “Light Sterling,” while the Pro models keep things understated with body-matched frames like a champagne frame on “Sage Green” and a polished-gold frame on the coral “Dune” finish.

The big upgrade is inside
The headline hardware change is the chip. Leaks point to a Tensor G6 built by TSMC on a 2nm process, paired with a new PowerVR GPU, a Titan M3 security chip, and a switch to MediaTek’s M90 modem, replacing the Samsung Exynos modem used previously. That chip story is described as the biggest jump in years, following Tensor G5’s earlier move to TSMC. The Hans IndiaThe Gadgeteer
As for the base model itself, the leaked listings point to a 6.3-inch 120Hz display, 12GB of RAM, 256GB of storage and a roughly 4,985mAh battery, with Bluetooth 6 and Wi-Fi 6E on the connectivity side. On the larger end, the Pixel 11 Pro XL is listed with a 6.8-inch OLED display at 120Hz, Wi-Fi 6E rather than Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6.0 and a 5,115mAh battery — smaller than some expected, continuing Google’s pattern of trimming capacity for a slimmer body.

“RAMageddon” comes for your wallet
The most contentious detail is price. Leaked US pricing points to $899 for the Pixel 11 (256GB), $1,099 for the Pixel 11 Pro, $1,299 for the Pixel 11 Pro XL, and $1,899 for the Pixel 11 Pro Fold, with multiple leaks agreeing the 128GB tier is gone entirely. That means the entry point climbs about $100 over last year — and the culprit isn’t a flashy new feature. Reports tie the change to “RAMageddon,” the surge in memory costs driven by AI demand, which is pushing the whole series more expensive as the base storage doubles to 256GB. Big Apple BuddyEngadget
When you can actually buy one
Retail availability is expected around August 20, 2026, though Google has not confirmed the ship date. The one exception is the foldable. The Pixel 11 Pro Fold is expected to appear on stage August 12 but ship later — historically the Fold arrives one to two months after the standard lineup, pointing to a likely October on-sale date.

A word of caution on all of it: the leaks have been unusually consistent this year, which makes them useful for planning, but until August 12 they remain exactly that — expected, not confirmed. Google has a habit of holding back a surprise or two, so the light-ring notification feature and a few AI tricks could still steal the show when the keynote begins.
