Google Unveils Pixel 11 Lineup on August 12

Google will host its Made By Google event on August 12, starting at 6 p.m. ET, to unveil the new Pixel 11 lineup. The company plans to reveal a range of devices, including several new phones, a refreshed Pixel Watch, and possibly a new location‑tracking gadget. Viewers can stream the live event on YouTube or through the embedded video on Engadget, where a live‑blog will provide real‑time commentary and expert analysis.

The event is expected to showcase four new Pixel phones: the base Pixel 11, two Pro models in different sizes, and a foldable variant. Rumors suggest the Pixel 11 Pro will feature a colorful indicator on its rear, and new color options are likely. Rising component costs and price hikes across the industry mean the new models may carry higher price tags than last year’s releases. In addition to the phones, Google is likely to update the Pixel Watch and may introduce an AirTag‑style location tracker. There are also whispers that Android XR devices could make an appearance, hinting at broader hardware ambitions.

To stay up to date, readers can watch the event live on YouTube or via Engadget’s embedded player and follow the live‑blog for detailed coverage. The coverage will break down each announcement, explain the specs, and compare the new devices to previous generations. This event is a key moment for Google’s hardware strategy and could signal how the company is positioning itself in a market where pricing and innovation are increasingly critical.
