The Google Pixel 11 series has entered the retail phase following its unveiling. On August 12, 2026, Google announced the new lineup, including the Pixel 11, Pixel 11 Pro, Pixel 11 Pro XL, and Pixel 11 Pro Fold. It said the Pixel 11, Pixel 11 Pro, and Pixel 11 Pro XL would be available through the Google Store and retail partner stores starting August 20.
The key point is that this was not a simultaneous worldwide launch; sales began in regions where the Google Store and retail partners operate.
Four Models and U.S. Starting Prices
The Pixel 11 series consists of four models, ranging from the standard version to a foldable device.
| Model | U.S. starting price |
|---|---|
| Pixel 11 | $899 |
| Pixel 11 Pro | $1,099 |
| Pixel 11 Pro XL | $1,299 |
| Pixel 11 Pro Fold | $1,899 |
On August 25, Google reiterated that the Pixel 11 series was available for purchase and listed the U.S. starting prices above. Prices, inventory, promotions, and sales conditions may vary by region, so buyers should check the official information available at the time of purchase.
Powered by Tensor G6 and Gemini Nano
According to Google, the Pixel 11 series is built around the Google Tensor G6 chip and the latest Gemini Nano model. For Tensor G6, Google said it is targeting a 25% improvement in web browsing, a 15% improvement in app launches, and up to 3.5 times faster on-device AI processing compared with the previous generation.
These figures are manufacturer claims provided by Google, not results from independent testing. They should therefore be understood as official targets and claims rather than definitive measures of performance in real-world use.
South Korean Availability Requires Separate Confirmation
Google Store’s official regional availability guide lists Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, India, Ireland, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, the United Kingdom, and the United States as Pixel 11 sales regions. South Korea is not included in the list.
Based on the information currently confirmed, it cannot be said that official sales have begun in South Korea. Anyone considering a purchase in the country should recheck the Google Store regional availability guide and sales conditions as of the publication date.
