Google officially announced the Pixel 11 series — including the Pixel 11, Pixel 11 Pro, Pixel 11 Pro XL, and Pixel 11 Pro Fold — available for preorder worldwide starting August 15, 2026 [1]. Prices start at $899 for the base Pixel 11 and go up to $1,899 for the Pro Fold model [2, 3, 1]. Shipping for all models is scheduled for August 20, 2026 [2, 3].
Each Pixel 11 phone comes with a minimum of 256GB storage, up from last year’s 128GB base, carrying a $100 price increase over its predecessors [2, 3]. The Pixel 11 Pro features a 50-megapixel main camera with a 120x zoom lens and includes a new HiLight LED integrated into the camera bar for better lighting [2, 3]. The Pro XL model shares the same specs but has a larger 6.8-inch screen compared to the 6.3-inch display on the Pixel 11 and 11 Pro [2, 3, 1]. The Pixel 11 Pro Fold is Google’s foldable addition, offering extra screen space when unfolded [2, 3, 1].
Powered by Google’s Tensor G6 processor, the phones deliver a claimed 25% faster web browsing and 15% faster app loading than the previous Tensor G5 chip [3]. Camera software enhancements include a Magic Capture feature that stitches clips and photos from longer videos to create new content formats [3]. Battery life is upgraded with faster charging and support for Qi2.2 wireless charging up to 25W [3].
Google and major retailers like Amazon and Best Buy are running a preorder promotion offering gift cards: $100 for Pixel 11, $200 for Pixel 11 Pro and Pro XL, and $350 for the Pro Fold, valid through August 27, 2026 [2, 3, 1]. Trade-in deals offering credits up to $600 are available through Google Store, selected carriers including T-Mobile and AT&T, and participating retailers [2, 1]. Carriers also provide deals with new line activations or trade-ins, sometimes including free or discounted devices on 36-month plans [1].
Additionally, Google has bundle discounts for buyers pairing a Pixel 11 Pro with the Pixel Watch 5, offering up to $250 off the watch’s base prices of $399 (41mm) and $429 (45mm) [3, 1].
