Amazon's leaky faucet may have also revealed these Pixel 11 series specs and US prices
Google's upcoming Pixel 11, Pixel 11 Pro, Pixel 11 Pro XL, and Pixel 11 Pro Fold hold even fewer secrets after their latest huge leak.

We all know we still have close to a month left to Google's big Pixel 11 family announcement event, but I'm starting to wonder how the search giant will be able to keep our interest alive all this time after everything Amazon just spilled on the company's four impending phones.
I'm not only talking about those seemingly legit images confirming the familiar designs and snazzy colors of the Pixel 11, 11 Pro, and 11 Pro Fold, as according to two different and equally reliable sources, the e-commerce giant also leaked a bunch of key specs and the full pricing structure of the entire handset roster in now-deleted product listings. Of course, this info is not official yet, but for the most part, it looks too authentic to be fake.
The Pixel 11 could start at $899 with 12GB RAM
- 256 and 512GB storage variants;
- 12GB RAM;
- 6.3-inch OLED screen with 2856 x 1280 pixel resolution and 120Hz refresh rate technology;
- 13MP front-facing camera;
- 4,985mAh battery;
- Bluetooth 6;
- Wi-Fi 6E;
- 152.6 x 71.9 x 8.4mm dimensions;
- 204 grams weight;
- $899 starting price.
Yes, the "vanilla" Pixel 11 will technically be costlier than its predecessor if all the above details prove accurate. But that's only because the entry-level 128GB storage configuration is apparently going away. And no, that rumor from a while ago that the non-Pro Pixel 11 will reduce the Pixel 10's 12GB RAM count to 8 gigs is (probably) not panning out.

Basically, given that a Pixel 10 with 256 gigs of internal storage space and 12GB memory typically goes for $899, the Pixel 11 is actually not set to receive a price hike in a comparable variant, and perhaps more importantly, Google's base 6.3-incher is expected to match the $899 Samsung Galaxy S26 with, you guessed it, 256GB storage space and 12GB RAM.
The specs listed above, meanwhile, are far from surprising... or radically different from what the "vanilla" Pixel 10 offers, including a seemingly upgraded front-facing camera and slightly higher screen resolution but a largely unchanged battery capacity, totally unchanged weight number, and a thickness reduction you're unlikely to notice in your day-to-day use.
What do you think about these likely Pixel 11 series prices?
The 512GB storage configuration, mind you, will apparently cost $1,019, thus undercutting Samsung's comparable Galaxy S26 model by a cool 80 bucks.
Not all Pixel 11 Pro models are created equal
- 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB storage configurations;
- 12 and 16GB RAM options;
- 6.3-inch OLED screen with 2856 x 1280 pixel resolution and 120Hz refresh rate technology;
- 13MP front-facing camera;
- 4,850mAh battery;
- Bluetooth 6;
- Wi-Fi 6E;
- 152.9 x 71.9 x 8.6mm dimensions;
- 197 grams weight;
- $1,099 starting price.
Here's where things get intriguing... and a little confusing in the Pixel 11 lineup. This year's compact Pro is set to start at 256GB storage and 12GB RAM, unlike the most affordable Pixel 10 Pro variant, which offers just 128 gigs of local digital hoarding room but also 16 gigs of memory... at a $999 list price.

These changes and this price increase are bound to cause quite a bit of controversy among Google's speed-addicted fans of compact phones, and if you have no intention of making a multitasking compromise, you'll reportedly need to cough up $1,219 for a Pixel 11 Pro with 16GB RAM and 512GB internal storage space. Or $1,449 for a top-of-the-line 16GB RAM/1TB storage configuration.
The Pixel 10 Pro also costs $1,219 with 512GB storage, so Google is definitely trying its best to keep the prices of its next big things relatively affordable... all in all. Compared to its predecessor, the Pixel 11 Pro seems to be a bit lighter but not thinner while keeping the battery size, screen size, and screen resolution virtually unchanged. That sounds like an underwhelming upgrade, but of course, we don't have all the information yet. And some of the info we do have is not very believable, like that 13MP front-facing camera.
The cheapest Pixel 11 Pro XL model will also cut a major corner
- 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB storage variants;
- 12 and 16GB RAM options;
- 6.8-inch OLED screen with 2992 x 1344 pixel resolution and 120Hz refresh rate support;
- 13MP front-facing camera;
- 5,115mAh battery;
- Bluetooth 6;
- Wi-Fi 6E;
- 162.8 x 76.4 x 8.4mm dimensions;
- 226 grams weight;
- $1,299 starting price.
Just like its little brother, the 6.8-inch Pixel 11 Pro XL is expected to start at 12GB RAM and cost $100 more than its predecessor in an entry-level configuration. The problem is the most affordable Pixel 10 Pro XL variant also comes with 256GB storage, so this price hike is going to be a lot harder to explain and justify... if it pans out.

The 11 Pro XL could cost $1,419 and $1,649 in 16GB RAM models with 512GB and 1TB internal storage space, respectively, and you guessed it, those prices would also be higher than what the 10 Pro XL typically costs in identical configurations.
Speaking of identical, I should probably point out that the differences between the Pixel 11 Pro XL and its predecessor are set to be virtually nonexistent in the weight, dimensions, screen size, screen resolution, and battery capacity departments, and no, I don't expect that 13MP front-facing camera spec to prove accurate here either.
The Pixel 11 Pro Fold sounds like the most disappointing member of its family
- 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB storage;
- 16GB RAM;
- 6.5-inch OLED cover screen with 2342 x 1080 pixel resolution and 120Hz refresh rate capabilities;
- 4,750mAh battery;
- Bluetooth 6;
- Wi-Fi 6E;
- 239 grams weight;
- $1,899 starting price.
Sorry, foldable fans, I just can't get excited over a costlier Galaxy Z Fold series alternative than last year's Pixel 10 Pro Fold with lower battery capacity. That's right, the Pixel 11 Pro Fold is likely to pack a 265mAh smaller cell and the same 16 gigs of RAM and 256 gigs of internal storage space as its predecessor at $100 more.

For what it's worth, the weight will apparently be reduced by a decent 19 grams as well, the cover screen may grow in size... a little, and there are still plenty of other specs and features under wraps for the Pixel 11 Pro Fold to end up looking... like less of a disappointment. But there's no way around it: the $2,019 and $2,249 price tags tipped for the foldable's 512GB and 1TB storage variants, respectively, are BAD.
