Google Pixel 11, Google Pixel 11 Pro, Google Pixel 11 Pro XL and Google Pixel 11 Pro Fold: new phones explained

The Google Pixel 11 series represents the latest in smartphone development from Google, now with Gemini Intelligence⁽¹⁾, the new Google Tensor G6 chip, fun new colour options, and the new HiLight feature for the Google Pixel 11 Pro, Google Pixel 11 Pro XL and Google Pixel 11 Pro Fold.

All Google Pixel 11 models have received an exciting new range of colours, along with Gemini Intelligence⁽¹⁾, Google’s latest innovation in the mobile AI space.

Gemini Intelligence⁽¹⁾ helps you on the go by proactively anticipating your needs. For example, if a friend texts to ask if you're free for lunch on Thursday, Gemini Intelligence will recognise this and offer to check your schedule, tell you if you're free, and add the lunch to your diary. It's also useful for things like taking a picture of a notice board of events – Gemini Intelligence will recognise events and timings, and simply ask if you want to 'add to calendar'. Gemini Intelligence also utilises Google’s Nano Banana model for on-device image generation, letting you quickly create ready to go images, such as if you need a ready to go beach-themed birthday poster in seconds.

It also has more capable cameras and a 4850mAh (typical)(2) battery capacity. The Pixel 11 Pro also comes with HiLight on the back, functioning as a small LED dot that displays different colours when interacting with Gemini, or lights up when priority contacts are calling.

Stepping things up a bit, the Google Pixel 11 Pro XL takes the awesome performance of the standard Google Pixel 11 Pro and slaps on an even better screen, at 6.8-inches and offering a 1344 x 2992 resolution. It’s underpinned by the Google Tensor G6 chip, with your choice of 12GB RAM (with the 256GB model) or 16GB RAM (with 512GB/1TB). Keeping the phone going all day is a 5115mAh (typical)(2) battery capacity. The Google Pixel 11 Pro XL also comes with HiLight on the back, functioning as a small LED dot that displays different colours when interacting with Gemini, or lights up when priority contacts are calling.
