Looking to get your hands on the latest Pixel devices? After weeks of leaks and rumors , Google has officially announced its next generation of Pixel phones and watches.

The base Pixel 11 starts at $899, the Pro and Pro XL are $1,099 and $1,299 respectively, and the Pro Fold starts at $1,899. The watch comes in two sizes, with the smaller 41mm model starting at $399, and the larger 45mm model starting at $429. The phones are available for preorder now, and will ship on August 20th, 2026.

If you’re looking to preorder an unlocked phone on its own, your main options are Best Buy , Amazon , and directly from the Google Store . All three are running a similar introductory deal, where you’ll receive a gift card for a future purchase at that retailer, with the value depending on which model you buy. The Pixel 11 includes a $100 gift card, the Pixel 11 Pro and Pro XL include a $200 gift card, and the Pixel 11 Pro Fold includes a $350 gift card. Only Google lists an end date for the promotion, which is August 27th, 2026.

If you’d also like a Pixel Watch 5, Google and Amazon will give you additional credit towards that purchase instead of the gift card. The Pixel 11 and 41mm watch bundle is $1,168.99, effectively a $130 discount if you bought the two devices separately, but only in obsidian. The Pixel 11 Pro and Pro XL with a 41mm watch as a bundle is discounted by $250. The Amazon bundles include only the Wi-Fi versions of the Pixel Watch 5 and only in limited color combinations. The Google store will let you apply the credit to other in-stock variants. If you buy a Pixel 11 Pro Fold , you can opt for a 41mm Wi-Fi watch for free, with Amazon offering obsidian only and Google letting you choose your colors.

Each phone is powered by the new Tensor G6 processor, which Google says is capable of 25 percent faster web browsing and 15 percent improvement to app loading speeds over the Tensor G5. The camera and video features are a focus of the new Pixel 11 series phones. The new Magic Capture feature lets you forget about snapping a great shot, and instead stitches together a series of clips and photos from a longer video. All four phones also featuring upgraded batteries and fast charging, with wireless charging support for Qi2.2 up to 25W.

The Pixel 11 Pro starts at $1,099 for the base model with 256GB of storage, and goes up to $1,219 for the 512GB model, or $1,449 for the 1TB model. The larger Pixel 11 Pro XL starts at $1,299 for the 256GB configuration, with the 512GB costing $1,419 and the 1TB model priced at $1,649.
