The best Google Pixel 11, Pixel 11 Pro and Pixel 11 Pro XL plans in Australia for August 2026
Pre-orders for Google’s new Pixel 11 range have now wrapped up, with most retailer offers and deals finished, and you can now get your hands on them immediately.
All three Pixel 11 bar-style phones get a newly redesigned camera bump, along with brand-new LED notification lights within the flash module called ‘HiLight’.
They also get a new Tensor G6, and now all start with 12GB of RAM — a decrease from the 16GB RAM that the base Pro models had in last year’s Pixels.
Like many flagship releases thus far, the Google flagships have higher starting prices compared to their predecessors — like AU$1,499 for the base Pixel 11 — although thankfully storage options now start at 256GB instead of 128GB in last year’s handsets.
If you're keen to get one of Google's latest smartphones, then understandably, paying one off in monthly instalments will likely be a popular option, instead of paying the full amount outright.
If you’re going the telco route, you’ll be pleased to hear that most of their pre-order specials have been extended to as late as October, with savings of up to AU$1,000.
We’ve compared all the deals on offer and have highlighted the best ones below.
