Pixel 11 leak predicts a weird mix of upgrades and downgrades for a higher price
A Pixel 11 leak points to doubled base storage and up to 16GB of RAM, but a higher price and conflicting camera details make Google’s next base flagship difficult to judge.
Google's upcoming Pixel 11 is expected to arrive with a higher price tag, despite promising some upgrades and leaving a key camera question unanswered. The base model is anticipated to cost $899, an increase from the $799 starting price of the Pixel 10. This additional cost would provide more storage space, as the Pixel 11 is rumored to start at 256GB, compared to the 128GB base model of its predecessor.
Furthermore, the Pixel 11 may offer options for 12GB or 16GB of RAM, along with Google's Tensor G6 chip and Titan M3 coprocessor. While the camera specifications reveal a 48MP main sensor and a 13MP ultrawide lens, the absence of a telephoto lens raises questions about the phone's camera capabilities. The rest of the hardware does not seem to soften the impact of the price hike, with battery capacity increasing by a mere 15mAh and wired charging remaining at 30W.
The Pixel 11 Pro Fold, rumored to start at $1,899, is expected to closely resemble Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold8 in terms of display size, despite being priced similarly to the smaller Fold8. Meanwhile, Apple's second-generation iPhone Air is said to be in development, with a focus on refining the design and introducing a smaller Dynamic Island, an upgraded camera system, and Apple's next-generation silicon.
