According to a leak from a usually reliable source, the upcoming Pixel 11 and Pixel 11 Pro may be priced lower than their predecessors, despite earlier statements from a Google executive about price increases across the Pixel lineup. The leak, reported by Android Authority on July 28, 2026, suggests the Pixel 11 will start at $799, while the Pixel 11 Pro will start at $999, matching the launch prices of the Pixel 10 and Pixel 10 Pro.
The source, who has a track record of accurate Pixel leaks, claims that Google is aiming to maintain competitive pricing in the mid-range and premium smartphone markets. However, the leak does not specify pricing for the Pixel 11 Pro XL or any potential Ultra model. Google has not officially commented on the pricing, and the company is expected to unveil the Pixel 11 series on August 12, 2026.
It remains unclear whether the leaked prices reflect carrier subsidies or promotional offers, and whether they apply to all regions. The earlier executive statement about price hikes may have referred to specific models or markets, or could have been a strategic misdirection. Consumers are advised to wait for official confirmation from Google.
