Google Pixel 11 Pro & Pixel 11 Pro XL: Key Specifications & Features

Both phones use a new Super Actua panel that peaks at 3,600 nits. Under the hood, they feature Google’s Tensor G6 (2nm) chipset, which the company says handles on-device AI tasks up to 3.5 times faster than before while using less power.

The redesigned telephoto camera stretches zoom out to 120x alongside a brighter main sensor for low-light shots. A new HiLight strip around the camera flash glows for calls and Gemini prompts. In my view, it is one of the rare hardware additions that could genuinely earn its keep rather than fade into a gimmick.
