Google Images now points to a Pixel 11 lineup debut at Made By Google on Aug. 12 in New York City. Google will show the phones at 6 p.m. ET, and buyers should see them on shelves or in hand less than a month later.
That gives Pixel watchers a fixed clock. The lineup is expected to include four phones, and that narrows the wait from rumor season to a date on the calendar.
Pixel 11 at 6 p.m. ET
Google will hold Made By Google at 6 p.m. ET on Aug. 12. The event is where the Pixel 11 lineup will appear for the first time.
Jimmy Fallon hosted last year's event. This year, the schedule itself is the useful detail, because it tells shoppers when the first official specs should land.
Four Pixel 11 models
The lineup is expected to include the base Pixel 11, a Pro model, a Pro XL model, and a Pro Fold model. That means buyers looking for a standard phone, a larger screen, or a folding device are all waiting on the same reveal.
Google is also expected to use Pixel Glow across all four devices. The camera bar is expected to change shape to fit a new multi-colored light module, and those lights are expected to signal things such as incoming messages.
MysticLeaks posted alleged specs for the base Pixel 11. The base model is reported to use a 6.3-inch OLED display with a 2856x1280 resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate.
Amazon leak and pricing
A recent Amazon leak reportedly listed prices for the Pixel 11 family. The Pixel 11, Pixel 11 Pro, and Pixel 11 Pro XL are said to start at $100 more than their Pixel 10 counterparts, while the Pixel 11 Pro Fold is said to cost $400 more than the Pixel 10 Pro Fold.
That leaves the official price sheet as the missing piece. Google has put the date and place on the calendar, but the final specs and pricing still hang on the Aug. 12 stage reveal.
Google released a teaser video a couple of weeks before the event showing part of a Pixel 11 Pro. Buyers now know when the full picture arrives, but they still have to wait for Google to say which rumors survive the launch.
