Summary
Google’s Pixel 11 store teaser shows a color-shifting glowing orb beside the camera bar, adding a new hardware detail ahead of the phone lineup’s debut.
The page offers no explanation, but the orb may be the “Pixel Glow” light feature seen in Android 17 betas and could tie into Google’s Gemini AI features.
August 12 is Google’s scheduled launch event for new Pixel hardware; an earlier teaser showed the Pixel 11 without the glowing orb.
The latest tease adds to reports that the Pixel 11 series may get a price increase, even as Google highlights new design and feature changes.
