The upcoming Google Pixel 11 Pro XL has appeared in its first batch of renders, courtesy of leaker @OneLeaks, outlining what looks to be a highly familiar design direction for Google’s next ultra-premium device. The images suggest a continuation of the flat-sided aesthetic, paired with a refined camera bar that appears larger yet slimmer, now finished entirely in black—mirroring the look seen on the Pixel 11 Pro.
According to the leak, the device measures 162.7 x 76.5 x 8.5 mm, closely matching the footprint of its predecessor, the Google Pixel 10 Pro XL. This strongly hints at a retained 6.8-inch OLED display, with little to no change in bezel size or overall proportions. In other words, this is a case of design continuity rather than reinvention.
Under the hood, the Pixel 11 Pro XL is expected to debut the new Google Tensor G6 processor, reportedly built on TSMC’s advanced 2nm process and featuring a 7-core architecture. The shift away from Samsung fabrication could mark a notable leap in efficiency and performance. Complementing this is a rumored switch to a MediaTek M90 modem—another departure from previous Pixel generations—and the introduction of a new Titan M3 security coprocessor, internally codenamed “Google Epic.”
Memory and storage configurations are expected to remain in flagship territory, with 16GB RAM and starting storage of 256GB, although some speculation suggests a possible downgrade to 12GB RAM to maintain pricing competitiveness. The device will likely ship with Android 17 out of the box.
On the camera front, early rumors point to meaningful upgrades despite the conservative exterior. These include an ultra-low-light video mode, Cinematic Blur at 4K/30fps, enhanced telephoto capabilities enabling up to 100x zoom via new hardware and machine learning, and a new “video relight” feature for dynamic lighting adjustments in post-processing.
Despite the internal improvements, the design language remains largely unchanged. Compared to last year’s model, the most visible difference is the fully الأسود (black) camera bar, replacing the two-tone finish seen previously. While subtle, this tweak may add a more cohesive and premium look.
The Pixel 11 series—including the Pro XL—is expected to be officially unveiled in August, following Google’s usual release cadence. Earlier leaks have already revealed the Pixel 11 Pro Fold and standard Pixel 11, both of which also emphasize iterative design over bold changes.
