[4] Google unveiled its Pixel 11 phone family, Pixel Watch 5 and first tracking device on Wednesday, August 12, putting higher phone prices and broader Gemini integration at the center of its annual hardware refresh. [1][2]
The standard Pixel 11 starts at $899 in the United States, with 256GB of storage as the base configuration. The Pixel 11 Pro starts at $1,099, while the Pixel 11 Pro Fold starts at $1,899. [1][2]
Google makes more storage the new baseline #
Google has eliminated the 128GB base configuration and made 256GB the starting capacity for the Pixel 11. The Google Store lists 30-plus hours of battery life, a Tensor G6 chip and seven years of operating-system, security and Pixel Drop updates. [1] (store.google.com)
The standard model has a thinner camera profile, a 48-megapixel main camera, a 13-megapixel ultrawide camera and a 10.8-megapixel telephoto camera with 30x Super Zoom. Google says a single tap can capture photos and video and automatically create a curated collection. [1] (store.google.com)
The Pixel 11 Pro and Pro XL start at $1,099 and $1,299, respectively, according to the Associated Press. The Pro phones add a 50-megapixel main camera, 48-megapixel ultrawide and telephoto cameras, up to 120x Pro Zoom, and a feature called HiLight that glows when an important call needs attention.

Google also said the Pixel 11 Pro Fold is nearly 10% lighter and almost 1 millimeter thinner than its predecessor. It has a 48-megapixel main camera and 30x Super Zoom. [2]
Gemini moves into everyday phone functions #
Google’s launch materials describe Gemini Intelligence as a system that can predict what a user needs, work across apps and help complete tasks. The company also highlighted camera assistance, conversational editing and other AI features already rolling out across Pixel devices. [1] [5] (store.google.com)
TechCrunch reported several Pixel 11-specific demonstrations, including Rambler, a voice-input feature designed to handle filler words, run-on sentences and less structured speech. Circle to Search can also be accessed more directly from the Pixel Camera to identify objects, translate text or answer questions about a scene. [2]
Google is offering six months of Google AI Pro with Pixel 11 Pro purchases. The Google Store lists the offer as a $119 value, though eligibility and promotional terms apply. [1] (store.google.com)
Pixel Tag brings Google into item tracking #
Pixel Tag is Google’s first dedicated tracking device. It connects to Android’s Find Hub network so users can locate attached items through the Find Hub app. TechCrunch reported that the tag can also be located from a Pixel Watch and that Pixel Buds users can ask Gemini to find or ring it. [2]
The tag is listed at $29 for one unit or $99 for a four-pack in launch coverage. The Associated Press reported compatibility with phones running Android 9 or later. [2][3]
Pixel Watch 5 emphasizes health coaching #
The Pixel Watch 5 comes in 41mm and 45mm versions. Google’s Store page lists up to 40 hours of battery life with the always-on display, Wi-Fi and LTE connectivity, and a design built around Gemini-powered Google Health coaching. [4] (store.google.com)
Google describes the Health Coach as a conversational system that can create longer-term fitness plans, adjust sleep goals and provide proactive suggestions based on a broader view of a user’s health and wellness. Those are company-described coaching features, not independent clinical validation. [4] (store.google.com)
TechCrunch reported starting prices of $399 for the 41mm model and $429 for the 45mm model, plus a $579 Stephen Curry edition. Google’s Store page confirms the Curry collaboration but does not expose the prices in the page text reviewed for this audit. [2] [4] (store.google.com)
