Tech giant Google’s GOOGL +0.80% ▲ upcoming Pixel 11 is expected to arrive sometime in the summer of 2026, most likely during an August launch event, according to Phone Arena. Interestingly, the phone could debut alongside several other models, including the Pixel 11 Pro, Pixel 11 Pro XL, and Pixel 11 Pro Fold. Pricing has not been confirmed yet, although the base Pixel 10 started at $799, so the Pixel 11 may launch at a similar level or slightly higher due to rising component costs, such as RAM.

In terms of hardware, the Pixel 11 is expected to be powered by Google’s new Tensor G6 chip built on a 2-nanometer process, which should improve both performance and energy efficiency. The phone may also include a new Titan M3 security chip and switch to a MediaTek 5G modem designed to improve efficiency and support dual-active 5G SIM capabilities. Other rumored specs include around 12 GB of RAM, a roughly 5,000 mAh battery, Qi2 magnetic wireless charging, and about 30W wired charging. Storage could start at either 128 GB or possibly 256 GB if Google follows competitors that are increasing base storage.

Meanwhile, the Pixel 11 is expected to focus on AI-powered features and photography. The rumored camera system includes a 48 MP main camera with optical image stabilization, a 13 MP ultra-wide camera, a 10.8 MP 5x telephoto lens, and a 10.5 MP front camera. While exact upgrades remain unclear, Google will likely rely heavily on AI to improve photos and videos. Moreover, the phone will probably run Android 17 and build on existing Pixel AI features such as Magic Cue, Voice Translate for calls, and Camera Coach. Lastly, design changes are expected to be modest, with the familiar Pixel camera bar and flat sides likely remaining.
