Google introduced its latest Pixel devices at the Made by Google 2026 event. The lineup includes the Pixel 11, Pixel 11 Pro, Pixel 11 Pro XL, and Pixel 11 Pro Fold, as well as the Pixel Watch 5, Pixel Buds Pro 2, and the long-anticipated Pixel Tag.

Preorders began August 12, with most products shipping August 20. The Pixel Tag ships later, on November 11. All Pixel 11 models use the new Tensor G6 chip and include new Gemini-based AI features.

The Pixel 11 starts at $899, the Pixel 11 Pro at $1,099, the Pixel 11 Pro XL at $1,299, and the Pixel 11 Pro Fold at $1,899.

Google’s Pixel 11 Series, Pixel Watch 5, Buds, and Tag

The Pixel 11, Pixel 11 Pro, and Pixel 11 Pro XL feature a redesigned camera bar that is thinner and more stable. All three use the Tensor G6 chip.

The Pixel 11 comes with a 6.3-inch Actua display, 12GB of RAM, and either 256GB or 512GB of storage. It also features a brighter M16 OLED panel and supports Qi2 25W wireless charging.

The Pixel 11 Pro offers a 6.3-inch Super Actua display, 12GB or 16GB of RAM, and storage from 256GB up to 1TB. The Pixel 11 Pro XL has a larger 6.8-inch Super Actua display and the same RAM and storage options as the Pro.

The Pro models introduce new camera features and HiLite, an LED that gives color-coded alerts when the phone is face down. The Pixel 11 Pro Fold is thinner, with a less noticeable crease and a new hinge that Google says has been tested for over 80 million open-and-close cycles.

The Pixel Watch 5 offers better performance and new health features, including blood pressure and insulin resistance trend tracking, plus a Smart Wake alarm. It ships August 20 and costs $400 for the 41mm version or $430 for the 45mm, with LTE available for an extra charge.

The Pixel Buds Pro 2 come in a new olive color and ship on August 12, the same day preorders open. They are priced at $229.

The Pixel Tag, Google's competitor to the AirTag, costs $30 for one or $100 for a four-pack. It is the only new device in the lineup that ships later, on November 11.

AI Features, Pricing, and Availability

Google is focusing on on-device AI. Gemini Nano runs faster on the Tensor G6 chip, offering up to 25 percent quicker browsing and a new Magic Capture camera tool. There is also a new sign-to-text feature that allows people who are deaf or hard of hearing to use ASL for texting, translation, and interacting with Gemini.

Preorders opened August 12, with most devices shipping August 20:

• Pixel 11: $899, 256GB, in Frost, Pistachio, Hibiscus, and Obsidian.
• Pixel 11 Pro: $1,099, 256GB to 1TB, in Canyon, Olive, Fog, and Matte Obsidian.
• Pixel 11 Pro XL: $1,299, 256GB to 1TB, in the same colors as the Pro.

Carrier Deals and Preorder Notes

Carriers and retailers are running early promotions:

• T-Mobile is offering the Pixel 11, Pixel 11 Pro, and Pixel 11 Pro XL free with a new line, or up to $1,300 in trade-in credit.
• Verizon is offering up to $1,100 in trade-in credit for new lines, or $900 for existing customers, paid over 36 months, so switching away early forfeits the remaining credit.
• Google Fi is taking $450 off the Pixel 11 Pro for existing subscribers with no long-term contract.
• Best Buy and Amazon are each including a $200 gift card with unlocked Pixel 11 Pro preorders, or $350 on the Pro Fold.

Buyers weighing a preorder should factor in a few details:

1. Compare carrier trade-in credits carefully, since Verizon's is paid over 36 months and is forfeited if you leave early.
2. Note that the Pixel Tag ships November 11, later than the rest of the lineup, if buying multiple devices together.
3. Check which colors and storage tiers are available per model, since the base Pixel 11 is limited to 256GB and 512GB.
4. Weigh the retailer gift card offers against carrier deals, since Best Buy and Amazon bundle gift cards with unlocked Pro and Pro Fold preorders.

Preorders are now available. The Pixel 11 series, Pixel Watch 5, and Pixel Buds Pro 2 ship August 20, except the Buds, which ship August 12. The Pixel Tag ships November 11.

The event did not bring major surprises but included steady hardware updates and more Gemini features.
