▼ Summary
– Android Headlines has published purported specs and pricing for the entire Pixel 11 lineup, aligning with prior rumors ahead of the August 12th event.
– The base Pixel 11 will see a $100 price increase to $899, but its storage doubles from 128GB to 256GB.
– All Pixel 11 models will feature the new Tensor G6 and Titan M3 chips.
– The Pixel 11 Pro and Pixel 11 Pro XL will have RAM reduced to 12GB, contradicting typical upgrades.
– The Pro and Pro XL will cost $1,099 and $1,299, respectively, reflecting price hikes alongside the RAM cut.
According to a new report from Android Headlines, the full specifications and pricing for the upcoming Pixel 11 series have surfaced, and they largely align with previous rumors leading up to the August 12th launch event. The most notable change is a $100 price increase for the base model, which will now start at $899. However, that bump comes with a meaningful upgrade: 256GB of storage as the standard configuration, replacing the 128GB baseline of previous generations.
The entire Pixel 11 lineup will be powered by the new Tensor G6 chip and the Titan M3 security processor. Interestingly, both the standard Pixel 11 Pro and the larger Pixel 11 Pro XL are expected to see a RAM reduction to 12GB, a move that contradicts the typical trend of increasing memory in flagship devices. Despite the cut in RAM, these Pro models will also carry higher price tags, with the Pixel 11 Pro starting at $1,099 and the Pixel 11 Pro XL at $1,299.
While the RAM downgrade might raise some eyebrows, the increased base storage and the performance gains from the Tensor G6 could offset any concerns. For those waiting on the official announcement, the leaked details suggest a lineup that balances incremental hardware improvements with a notable shift in pricing strategy.
