Android Headlines puts the starting price at $1,099, a $100 jump over the Pixel 10 Pro, even as the device is said to bring only a few improvements.

Google has already confirmed it will unveil the Pixel 11 lineup during its next Made by Google event on August 12. While the company hasn’t officially shared any details about the upcoming devices, leaks have already painted a clear picture of what to expect in terms of design and spec upgrades. Now, a fresh leak has bared all about the Pixel 11 Pro, revealing its complete specifications and pricing ahead of Google’s official announcement.

Display brightness climbs, base RAM shrinks

According to Android Headlines, the Pixel 11 Pro would sport a 6.3-inch Super Actua LTPO OLED display, the same size as its predecessor, the Pixel 10 Pro. The resolution is said to stay at 2,856 x 1,280 pixels, though peak brightness would reportedly climb from 3,300 nits to 3,600 nits. The panel would support an adaptive refresh rate of 1-120Hz and Gorilla Glass Victus 2 protection.

The report also states the device would pack Google’s new Tensor G6 chip paired with a Titan M3 security processor, and run Android 17 out of the box. RAM is said to be split between 12GB and 16GB depending on the storage tier, unlike the Pixel 10 Pro, which shipped with 16GB of RAM across all configurations. Storage would reportedly start at 256GB and top out at 512GB, doubling the Pixel 10 Pro’s 128GB base storage but halving the top-end 1TB option.

Zoom climbs to 120x as price jumps $100

The camera setup would reportedly keep a similar three-lens layout, with a 50MP main sensor, a 48MP ultrawide with macro support, and a 48MP periscope telephoto camera still capped at 5x optical zoom. However, Google would reportedly push digital zoom to 120x, up from 100x on the Pixel 10 Pro. The selfie camera would reportedly stick with a 42MP f/2.2 sensor with a 103-degree FoV.

Battery capacity is said to dip slightly, from 4,870mAh to 4,850mAh, with the phone’s footprint shrinking marginally to 204g and 152.7 x 71.9 x 8.4mm, down from the Pixel 10 Pro’s 207 grams and 152.8 x 72 x 8.5mm. Wired charging would hold at 30W, but the report doesn’t specify wireless charging speed. The phone would also offer an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance, matching its predecessor.

If Android Headlines’ pricing holds, the Pixel 11 Pro would start at $1,099 in the US and €1,199 in Europe, a $100 increase over the $999 launch price of the Pixel 10 Pro. Color options reportedly include Dune, Light Fog, Midnight Haze, and Pine, though the outlet notes those names aren’t yet confirmed.

None of this is official yet, but the leak suggests Google isn’t chasing a dramatic improvement with the Pixel 11 Pro. It looks to be nudging brightness, zoom range, and base storage upward while asking buyers to absorb a real price increase, even as the battery reportedly gets smaller.

The Galaxy Z Fold 8 is genuinely cool, but I’d pay up for the Z Fold 8 Ultra
The Ultra costs $200 more than the Fold 8, and I’m ready to pay the premium.

Samsung did something genuinely interesting at Galaxy Unpacked 2026. For the first time in the history of its Galaxy Z foldable lineup, it split the book-style foldable line into two entirely different devices. Whether it had something to do with Apple’s purported iPhone Ultra is a conversation for another time, but for now, anyone visiting a Samsung experience center has two Fold phones to choose from: the new Galaxy Z Fold 8 and the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra. 

The Fold 8 is wider, lighter in hand, and built specifically for one-hand use on the cover screen and content consumption on the inner screen. The Fold 8 Ultra, on the other hand, carries forward the tall and thin design. After spending some hands-on time with both devices, I’ve come to a conclusion.

EU’s Starlink alternative is finally moving beyond the planning stage
IRIS² will provide secure satellite connectivity for European defence, security, and emergency services
IRIS2 satellite constellation

While SpaceX is trying to take on Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile with its own mobile network, the European Union is moving in a very different direction. It wants a satellite network it can control itself.

The European Commission and the SpaceRISE consortium have now signed an implementation agreement for IRIS², the EU’s secure satellite connectivity programme. The deal adds another 66 satellites to the project, taking the planned constellation to 348 spacecraft in total. Of those, 330 will operate in low Earth orbit and 18 in medium Earth orbit. First launches are targeted for 2029.

My next phone has to earn its retirement

My next phone is going to have to give me a reason to replace it.

So far, my Pixel 8a is still a champ. It does everything I need, it still feels fast, and nothing about using it day to day makes me think I should be shopping for a replacement. Newer phones have arrived with faster chips, brighter screens, better cameras, and increasingly ambitious AI features, yet none of them has made the phone in my pocket feel particularly old.
