Google to unveil Pixel 11 series and Pixel Watch 5 at August event
Google has scheduled its "Made by Google" event for August 12, 2026, in New York City, where it is expected to unveil the Pixel 11 smartphone family, including the Pixel 11, Pixel 11 Pro, Pixel 11 Pro XL, and the Pixel 11 Pro Fold. The event will be hosted by Trevor Noah and feature celebrity guests such as Stephen Curry and Alex Cooper.
Key hardware highlights for the Pixel 11 series include the new Tensor G6 processor, reportedly built on a 2nm process, and a potential move to a MediaTek M90 modem. Reports suggest the series may see price increases and a shift to 256GB as the base storage capacity. The Pixel 11 Pro Fold is rumored to feature an 8-inch internal display and enhanced AI capabilities via Gemini.
Additionally, Google is teasing the Pixel Watch 5. Marketing materials have taken a provocative stance, claiming the device "has the decency to look like a watch," implicitly criticizing the rectangular designs of competitors like Apple. The watch is expected to feature improved health tracking, increased memory, and a larger battery, though some leaks suggest it may use the existing Snapdragon W5 Gen 2 chip. Google is also expected to introduce the Pixel Tag, a tracking accessory designed to compete with the Apple AirTag.
