Google Pixel 11 Review | Comes with meaningful software additions and battery enhancements

Google Pixel 11 is not a phone that tries to reinvent the Pixel formula. Instead, Google has focused on making the existing experience better, and that approach works surprisingly well

Google Pixel 11 Review | Comes with meaningful software additions and battery enhancements

The Google Pixel 11, the entry-level model in the series, aims to keep things simple with a refined approach rather than flashy changes. Priced at ₹89,999, it is slightly more expensive than its predecessor, reflecting the increasing prices in the premium smartphone segment. However, it still boasts a powerful battery, capable cameras, and a lighter design, making it a compelling choice.

The phone retains the design language of the Pixel 10 but features subtle changes that make it feel more polished. Available in Frost, Pistachio, Hibiscus, and Obsidian finishes, the Pixel 11 has a slim camera bar, a lighter weight, Gorilla Glass Victus 2, an aluminium frame, and an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance.

The 6.3-inch Actua OLED display remains unchanged, offering sharp, colourful, and smooth visuals with a peak brightness of 3,000 nits and HDR brightness of up to 2,000 nits. The 120Hz Smooth Display makes scrolling through webpages and social media feel fluid. Google's AI features, such as Gemini Live, Gemini Apps, Circle to Search, Live Translate, and Call Assist, make the phone more useful, with the AI working in the background to improve composition, clarity, and overall output.

Powered by the Tensor G6 processor, the Pixel 11 offers fast and responsive performance, making it suitable for everyday use and gaming. The phone's camera setup includes a 48 MP wide camera, a 13 MP ultrawide, and a 10.8 MP 5x telephoto camera, delivering meaningful improvements over its predecessor.
