Google has finally launched the Pixel 11 in India at its Made by Google hardware event. While much of the pre-launch hype centred around the premium Pro variants, the standard Pixel 11 features substantial internal upgrades over its predecessors.
Google Pixel 11 Specifications and Features
Much of the design of the Pixel 11 remains unchanged from the Pixel 10, and that includes how the phone looks from the back. It retains the same horizontal pill-shaped camera bar, which is now 40% slimmer, alongside the same clean back design but in new colours, which we will touch upon later.
Coming to the display, Pixel 11 retains a 6.3-inch FHD+ 120 Hz LTPS OLED panel but uses a newer Samsung M16 OLED unit with 3,000 nits of peak brightness. The bezels are a tad bit slimmer than the Pixel 10, bumping up the screen-to-body ratio to 86.9% from 86%.
Powering the internals is Google's newest Tensor G6 processor based on TSMC's 2nm process. It incorporates seven of ARM's latest ARMv9.3-A cores, including a prime C1-Ultra core clocked at 4.11 GHz and the rest being C1 Pro cores.
Google claims it delivers 15% faster app loading speeds and 25% faster web browsing. Besides, the TPU has 50% more compute with two times the memory bandwidth for Gemini Nano. There's also an upgraded ISP for better images compared to the Tensor G5.
The processor also packs MediaTek's M90 modem, promising better network reception. Complementing the performance are 12 GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 256 GB of UFS 4.0 storage.
Running the show on the software front is Android 17 with the same 7-year update commitment. Featuring Gemini Intelligence, there are a host of new AI features, including Magic Capture, Camera Looks, Creator Suite and Rambler. There's also a new video feature called Pro Stable Video that uses AI to stabilise your video.
Optics-wise, the phone brings triple rear cameras consisting of a new 48 MP main, a 13 MP ultrawide and a 10.8 MP Telephoto snapper with 5x optical zoom and 30x Super Zoom. The front hole-punch houses a 10.5 MP snapper for selfies with a 95-degree field of view.
Fueling the internals is a 4,985mAh battery with 30W fast charging, the same as last year. However, wireless charging has been upgraded to 25W thanks to Qi 2.2 support. Google claims 30+ hours of battery life on a single charge and 0-55% charge in about 30 minutes.
When it comes to connectivity, the Pixel 11 features Wi-Fi 6e, Bluetooth 6.0, NFC and a USB 3.2 Type-C port with display output. Security is handled by an Ultrasonic in-display fingerprint scanner, whereas audio is backed by dual-stereo speakers.
