Google’s upcoming Pixel 11 Pro Fold has surfaced in a fresh leak ahead of its expected debut at the Made by Google event on August 12. Shared by Mystic Leaks, the new render showcases the foldable in a new Pine finish, a subtle gray-green shade paired with a light gold frame, while also offering a closer look at the redesigned rear camera module.
The updated camera island is noticeably slimmer than on the Pixel 10 Pro Fold, with far less metal surrounding the lenses. Google has also rearranged the sensors, placing the telephoto camera in the upper-right corner while the main and ultra-wide cameras sit below it. The flash module appears significantly larger than before, with both the LED flash and microphone now integrated into the camera housing. Previous leaks had only revealed the device in a black colorway, making Pine the second confirmed finish for the upcoming foldable.
Rumored specifications point to Google’s Tensor G6 chipset, a 4,800mAh battery, a slightly thinner chassis, and an upgraded primary camera while maintaining display sizes similar to its predecessor. Most of the hardware changes appear evolutionary rather than revolutionary, putting extra attention on software and AI-driven features expected to debut with Android 17.
One of the biggest unanswered questions remains Pixel Glow, a feature discovered in Android 17 Beta 4 that references colored rear lighting for notifications, charging indicators and hands-free Gemini interactions. Earlier reports suggested Google could introduce a Nothing Glyph-style LED system, but none of the leaked Pixel 11 renders—including the latest Pro Fold image—show any dedicated lighting hardware. This has sparked speculation that the enlarged flash module could double as the Pixel Glow implementation, although that would be a far simpler solution than many enthusiasts had anticipated.
Google is expected to officially unveil the Pixel 11, Pixel 11 Pro, Pixel 11 Pro XL, and Pixel 11 Pro Fold on August 12. Until then, additional leaks are likely to reveal more details about the new foldable and clarify whether Pixel Glow is truly a headline hardware feature or simply an enhanced notification flash.
