Today’s leak reveals numerous details about the upcoming Google Pixel 11 family. The disclosed data allows us to evaluate not only the design but also the deep hardware changes Google is preparing for its flagships. The main emphasis is on the transition to a custom architecture and the abandonment of borrowed solutions, which should push smartphone performance to a new level.
New Tensor G6 platform and Google Pixel 11 core architecture
All devices in the new lineup will run on the Tensor G6 SoC. This is the company’s first chip built on TSMC’s 2nm process (N2). The use of advanced lithography has significantly increased clock speeds without critical chassis overheating.
The Tensor G6 processor part has the following structure:
- main core — ARM C1-Ultra with a record frequency of 4.11 GHz;
- performance cluster — four ARM C1-Pro cores at 3.38 GHz;
- efficiency cluster — two ARM C1-Pro cores at 2.65 GHz.
The PowerVR C-Series CXTP-48-1536 accelerator is responsible for graphics, while the updated Google Titan M3 chip handles data security. The system also integrates a MediaTek M90 modem (MT6986D) and a new tensor processing unit (TPU) for artificial intelligence operations. The high computing power of the TPU will allow the smartphone to become the primary hub for automation. Specifically, if your xiaomi smart home is integrated into the Google Home system, data processing from sensors and cameras will occur locally and almost instantaneously.
Display and memory specifications
The lineup includes four devices, each targeted at its own user segment. Google has unified some parameters while maintaining a clear gradation in brightness and resolution.
Technical parameters of screens and memory models:
- Pixel 11. The base version will feature a 6.3-inch OLED screen (1080×2424) with a 120 Hz refresh rate and 240 Hz PWM control. Peak brightness will be 2200 nits. The phone will be offered with 8 or 12 GB of RAM.
- Pixel 11 Pro. The professional model is equipped with a 6.3-inch panel with a resolution of 1280×2856 and a brightness of 2450 nits. RAM capacity is increased to 12 or 16 GB.
- Pixel 11 Pro XL. The flagship will get a large 6.8-inch display (1344×2992) with the same 2450 nits brightness and 12/16 GB of memory.
- Pixel 11 Pro Fold. The foldable flagship will have an internal screen with a resolution of 2076×2160 (2050 nits brightness) and an external 6.3-inch display with 2450 nits brightness.
Battery life and new cameras
According to the leak, Google will update the main sensors across the entire lineup. A new 50-megapixel camera is confirmed for the base Pixel 11, while the Pro versions will additionally receive updated telephoto lenses.
The battery situation is as follows:
- base Pixel 11 — battery with a nominal capacity of 4840 mAh (typical capacity 5000 mAh);
- Pixel 11 Pro — 4707 mAh battery (typical capacity around 4900 mAh);
- Pixel 11 Pro XL — 5000 mAh capacity, which will be advertised as 5100-5200 mAh;
- Pixel 11 Pro Fold — 4658 mAh battery (typical capacity 4800 mAh).
Sensor and design changes
The most unexpected decision was the removal of the built-in thermometer in the Pro and Fold models. It will be replaced by an RGB LED array located inside the camera bar. This system will functionally resemble the Glyph interface used in Nothing devices, but on a smaller scale. Light indication will be able to notify users of notifications or charging status.
Regarding security, sources deny the appearance of IR face unlock in this generation. The technology is still under development and is not ready for commercial use in 2026. The smartphones are expected to be available in new colors: black, green, pink, and purple.
Thanks to the new hardware base, the Pixel 11 lineup promises to be the most powerful tool for managing the digital environment. The high efficiency of Tensor G6 and integrated AI make these smartphones ideal for those who have already built their own xiaomi smart home and are looking for a reliable device to manage all automations in a single interface.
