I guess it\u2019d be greedy to expect much more from this one, too.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--block-placement _1xorkac1 _1xorkac0 duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<div class=\"gc3ws21\">\n<div class=\"duet--article--scorecard gc3ws25 gc3ws24\" data-product-filter id=\"product-card-dmcyOnByb2R1Y3Q6OTgyMTky\">\n<div class=\"gc3ws2k\"><a class=\"gc3ws2g gc3ws2c\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Google-Pixel-11-Frost-Amazon\/dp\/B0HBF7RD17?tag=theverge02-20\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt data-chromatic=\"ignore\" loading=\"lazy\" data-nimg=\"fill\" class=\"i7ks070\" style=\"position:absolute;height:100%;width:100%;left:0;top:0;right:0;bottom:0;color:transparent;background-size:cover;background-position:50% 50%;background-repeat:no-repeat\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.theverge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/Google-Pixel-11-Hot-pink.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;crop=16.668097527473%2C0%2C66.663804945055%2C100&amp;w=2400\"><\/a><a class=\"gc3ws2j gc3ws2d\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Google-Pixel-11-Frost-Amazon\/dp\/B0HBF7RD17?tag=theverge02-20\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt data-chromatic=\"ignore\" loading=\"lazy\" data-nimg=\"fill\" class=\"i7ks070\" style=\"position:absolute;height:100%;width:100%;left:0;top:0;right:0;bottom:0;color:transparent;background-size:cover;background-position:50% 50%;background-repeat:no-repeat\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.theverge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/Google-Pixel-11-Hot-pink.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;crop=0.0021462912087955%2C0%2C99.995707417582%2C100&amp;w=2400\"><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"xhcq400\">\n<p class=\"xhcq401\">8<\/p>\n<p class=\"xhcq402\">Verge Score<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gc3ws29\">\n<div class=\"gc3ws2a gc3ws2b\">\n<h3 class=\"gc3ws2l\"><a class=\"gc3ws2y\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Google-Pixel-11-Frost-Amazon\/dp\/B0HBF7RD17?tag=theverge02-20\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Google Pixel 11<\/a><\/h3>\n<div class=\"gc3ws2q\"><span class=\"gc3ws2t\">$<!-- -->899<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gc3ws2r\"><span class=\"gc3ws2s\">$<!-- -->899<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"xhcq405 _19wv7tc1\">\n<div class=\"xhcq406\">\n<h4 class=\"xhcq408\">The Good<\/h4>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup xhcq409\">\n<ul>\n<li>Great design<\/li>\n<li>Wireless charging boosted to 25W<\/li>\n<li>Exclusive camera features are mostly fantastic<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"xhcq407\">\n<h4 class=\"xhcq408\">The Bad<\/h4>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup xhcq409\">\n<ul>\n<li>Very few gen-to-gen hardware improvements<\/li>\n<li>$899 is a lot even with double the starting storage<\/li>\n<li>Proactive Assistance isn\u2019t worth upgrading for yet<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gc3ws2w\"><a class=\"gc3ws2x\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Google-Pixel-11-Frost-Amazon\/dp\/B0HBF7RD17?tag=theverge02-20\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">$899 at Amazon<\/a><a class=\"gc3ws2x\" href=\"https:\/\/www.anrdoezrs.net\/links\/8836598\/type\/dlg\/https:\/\/store.google.com\/us\/product\/pixel_11?hl=en-US\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">$899 at Google Store<\/a><a class=\"gc3ws2x\" href=\"https:\/\/bestbuy.7tiv.net\/c\/482924\/614286\/10014?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bestbuy.com%2Fproduct%2Fgoogle-pixel-11-256gb-unlocked-obsidian%2FJ39TC82XS9%2Fsku%2F6684444\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">$899 at Best Buy<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"xhcq403\"><a class=\"xhcq404\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/pages\/how-we-rate\">How we rate and review products<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">The Pixel 11 looks, feels, and performs similarly to the $1,099 11 Pro. The Pro has a brighter, higher-resolution screen and much more powerful ultrawide and telephoto cameras, but the 11 is just as good in nearly every other way. It has the same Tensor G6 processor, and it even has the same amount of RAM as the base model Pro phone (though the more expensive Pro configurations have 16GB). In day-to-day use, I didn\u2019t notice any performance issues owing to the smaller amount of RAM on the 11, though it\u2019s possible that the newer processor balanced it out.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--block-placement _1xorkac1 _1xorkac0 duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<div class=\"duet--article--related _1044qizj xfenh40\">\n<h3 class=\"xfenh43 xfenh41\">Related<\/h3>\n<ul class=\"xfenh45\">\n<li class=\"xfenh48 xfenh46\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/tech\/981957\/google-pixel-watch-5-review-wearables-smartwatch\" class=\"xfenh49\">Google\u2019s Pixel Watch 5 is promising \u2014 but it isn\u2019t finished<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">Google didn\u2019t hold back any of the software features from this model, either. As someone who doesn\u2019t upgrade their phone unless they have to (I\u2019m still very happy with my <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/24225221\/google-pixel-9-pro-xl-review-ai-gemini-screen-battery-camera\">Pixel 9 Pro<\/a>), I was skeptical that some of the phones\u2019 most intriguing new camera features \u2014 Camera Looks and Magic Capture \u2014 would be enough to temp me.

My Pixel 9 Pro\u2019s wide and ultrawide lenses are roughly on par with the 11 Pro\u2019s, and quite a bit more capable than the Pixel 11\u2019s. But in the past week of testing, I don\u2019t miss them as much as I thought I would. Camera Looks in particular helped me have more fun shooting with a Pixel than I have in years. It\u2019s satisfying to quickly swap between different sensor-level presets, and they can make a big impact on how a photo turns out.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--block-placement _1xorkac1 _1xorkac0 duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<div style=\"position:relative\">\n<div class=\"_1044qizj\">\n<div class>\n<div style=\"background-image:none\" class=\"duet--media--content-warning _1k8kvzd0\">\n<div class=\"duet--article--image-gallery-image _1pegheu0\" style=\"aspect-ratio:0.75\" id=\"dmcyOmltYWdlOjk4MjIwOA==\"><a class=\"_1pegheu1\" href=\"https:\/\/platform.theverge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/PXL_20260813_210704991.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;crop=0,0,100,100\" data-pswp-height=\"4000\" data-pswp-width=\"3000\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"The Pixel 11 is fast enough to snag not just a good photo of a Spider-Man imposter on the Brooklyn Bridge while driving by in a car, but a great one.\" data-chromatic=\"ignore\" loading=\"lazy\" data-nimg=\"fill\" class=\"i7ks070\" style=\"position:absolute;height:100%;width:100%;left:0;top:0;right:0;bottom:0;color:transparent;background-size:cover;background-position:50% 50%;background-repeat:no-repeat\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.theverge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/PXL_20260813_210704991.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;crop=0%2C0%2C100%2C100&amp;w=2400\"><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--media--caption _77sxmb0\"><figcaption class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _19wv7tc2 _77sxmba\"><em>The Pixel 11 is fast enough to snag not just a good photo of a Spider-Man imposter on the Brooklyn Bridge while driving by in a car, but a great one.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">I\u2019ve been a Pixel user since 2017, going from the 2 to the 3 to the 6 to the 9 Pro, almost entirely because of the cameras. I trust them to take great shots quickly and with little effort. I even brought <a href=\"https:\/\/www.techradar.com\/news\/google-pixel-2-camera-versus-dslr\">the Pixel 2 on my honeymoon<\/a> trip instead of a DSLR, and no, I don\u2019t regret it all these years later. If you\u2019re a serious phone photographer who spends time composing every shot, you\u2019ll probably want to go for the Pro, but for more casual photographers like me, the quality difference isn\u2019t that noticeable, especially with Camera Looks applied. Camera Looks has even encouraged me to slow down sometimes to put a little more effort into my composition.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">Camera Looks seems like Google\u2019s realization that the Pixel\u2019s default vibrant HDR-drenched look isn\u2019t the best choice for every photo. Now, it\u2019s easy to switch to the bold, slightly more muted \u201cDigi\u201d or the black-and-white \u201cBlack Tie\u201d styles when you want to take a more impactful photo. If you like one of the Looks enough to make it your default shooting style, you can lock it in. And it\u2019s easier to make adjustments on the fly, thanks to the new quick access dials you can pin to the viewfinder. You can add dials for exposure, color temperature, and shadows.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--block-placement _1xorkac1 _1xorkac0 duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<div style=\"position:relative\">\n<div>\n<section aria-label=\"carousel\" class=\"duet--article--gallery _1044qizj xnv72h0\">\n<div class=\"_1044qizx xnv72h1\" id=\":R6sbcprar96:\">\n<div class=\"xnv72h3\"><a class=\"xnv72h2\" href=\"https:\/\/platform.theverge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/velvet.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all\" data-pswp-height=\"4000\" data-pswp-width=\"3000\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"&lt;em&gt;The \u201cVelvet\u201d style, at least in this example, bridges the gap between \u201cDigi\u201d and the default look.&lt;\/em&gt;\" data-chromatic=\"ignore\" loading=\"lazy\" data-nimg=\"fill\" class=\"xnv72h7 xnv72h5 xnv72h4 i7ks070\" style=\"position:absolute;height:100%;width:100%;left:0;top:0;right:0;bottom:0;color:transparent;background-size:cover;background-position:50% 50%;background-repeat:no-repeat\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.theverge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/velvet.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=2400\"><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"xnv72h3\"><a class=\"xnv72h2\" href=\"https:\/\/platform.theverge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/classic.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all\" data-pswp-height=\"4000\" data-pswp-width=\"3000\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"&lt;em&gt;Here\u2019s how \u201cClassic\u201d looks.

The hybrid camera mode records a video and intelligently plucks hi-res photos and video clips from it, and I used it to capture a bunch of little moments with our two-year-old at the beach and at parks. It\u2019s convenient to have a setting that can capture the unexpected without missing a beat. You can also manually capture photos while it\u2019s recording. However, the photos are the highlight, not the video (the resulting video looks choppier than a standard video, as if it lacks image stabilization; it doesn\u2019t seem like it\u2019s meant for consumption). I\u2019m more the type who\u2019d like to shoot individual photos, as it feels great to happen upon a spectacular shot.

It\u2019s meant to handle more of the grunt work of using a phone for things like managing calendars, making reservations, and buying groceries. To actually have it do things for you, you need to give the agentic AI permission (it\u2019s not on by default) to make changes within an array of apps, ranging from Google\u2019s productivity suite to apps like OpenTable, Instacart, Google Messages, and more.

One of the features Google advertises is an OpenTable integration that pops up a Gemini chip to book a restaurant reservation if it sees a relevant message. We could only get it to work by being as specific and formal as possible, including the restaurant\u2019s full name and the specific day and time. That\u2019s not how most people type to each other.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--block-placement _1xorkac1 _1xorkac0 duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<div style=\"position:relative\">\n<div class=\"_1044qizj\">\n<div class>\n<div style=\"background-image:none\" class=\"duet--media--content-warning _1k8kvzd0\">\n<div class=\"duet--article--image-gallery-image _1pegheu0\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.5\" id=\"dmcyOmltYWdlOjk4MTIzMg==\"><a class=\"_1pegheu1\" href=\"https:\/\/platform.theverge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/268705_Pixel_11_review_CFAULKNER_P1011482.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;crop=0,0,100,100\" data-pswp-height=\"1360\" data-pswp-width=\"2040\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Illuminated screen of a Google Pixel 11 in a person\u2019s hand in front of a blurry background of graffiti.\" data-chromatic=\"ignore\" loading=\"lazy\" data-nimg=\"fill\" class=\"i7ks070\" style=\"position:absolute;height:100%;width:100%;left:0;top:0;right:0;bottom:0;color:transparent;background-size:cover;background-position:50% 50%;background-repeat:no-repeat\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.theverge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/268705_Pixel_11_review_CFAULKNER_P1011482.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;crop=0%2C0%2C100%2C100&amp;w=2400\"><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--media--caption _77sxmb0\"><figcaption class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _19wv7tc2 _77sxmba\"><em>The Pixel 11\u2019s screen resolution is equivalent to the Pixel 10 as well as the Pixel 10A.<\/em><\/figcaption><cite class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _19wv7tc2 _77sxmb5\">Photo: Cameron Faulkner \/ The Verge<\/cite><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">Here\u2019s another example of Proactive Assistance in action: I was able to order groceries through my grocery list in Google Keep, but only after I figured out some unstated rules. After I enabled access to both Google Keep and Instacart in Gemini\u2019s settings, I had to adjust the title of my Google Keep list to include \u201cInstacart\u201d (so much for being able to use natural language). Afterward, the feature quickly connected me with a list of nearby retailers that could fulfill my order, just like it does in the Instacart app. Proactive Assistance is intriguing, but I hope it gets better. You can read more about the feature\u2019s quirks in David\u2019s review; for now, it\u2019s not worth upgrading for.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--block-placement _1xorkac1 _1xorkac0 duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<div style=\"position:relative\">\n<div class=\"_1044qizj\">\n<div class>\n<div style=\"background-image:none\" class=\"duet--media--content-warning _1k8kvzd0\">\n<div class=\"duet--article--image-gallery-image _1pegheu0\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.5\" id=\"dmcyOmltYWdlOjk4MTIzMA==\"><a class=\"_1pegheu1\" href=\"https:\/\/platform.theverge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/268705_Pixel_11_review_CFAULKNER_P1011477.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;crop=0,0,100,100\" data-pswp-height=\"1360\" data-pswp-width=\"2040\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Google\u2019s Pixel 11 leaning against a windowsill.\" data-chromatic=\"ignore\" loading=\"lazy\" data-nimg=\"fill\" class=\"i7ks070\" style=\"position:absolute;height:100%;width:100%;left:0;top:0;right:0;bottom:0;color:transparent;background-size:cover;background-position:50% 50%;background-repeat:no-repeat\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.theverge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/268705_Pixel_11_review_CFAULKNER_P1011477.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;crop=0%2C0%2C100%2C100&amp;w=2400\"><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--media--caption _77sxmb0\"><figcaption class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _19wv7tc2 _77sxmba\"><em>Google\u2019s latest Pixel looks similar to its predecessor, but that\u2019s not a bad thing.<\/em><\/figcaption><cite class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _19wv7tc2 _77sxmb5\">Photo: Cameron Faulkner \/ The Verge<\/cite><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">When I bought the Pixel 9 Pro two years ago, I picked the Pro because it was much better. It had a telephoto camera, more RAM, and more special features than the standard model. And its price came in under $1,000.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">This year, that\u2019s all changed. The standard Pixel 11 now has a telephoto lens and just as much RAM as the $1,099 Pro, it\u2019ll get all the same software features, and it\u2019s now the one with a price under four digits.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _18mzr4ba _19wv7tc1\">If you\u2019re serious about phone photography, the 11 Pro is probably worth it for the bigger camera sensors.
