Summer is the season of the foldable; with the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 already reviewed and Google slated for August, we turn our attention to the upcoming Pixel 11 Pro Fold.
A new leak from semi-retired tipster Evan Blass just revealed what appear to be marketing images that showcase Google’s foldable smartphone from nearly every angle.
Take a look:

The images don’t reveal any new specifications, save that the inner display will be 8 inches, similar to last year’s Pixel 10 Pro Fold. It will also have Gemini Intelligence, which shouldn’t be too surprising.
Blass’ leaked images seem to match leaked renders that popped up in March, showing a phone that looks much the same as its predecessor.
The one strange change appears to be a new LED position in the upper left corner of the camera array. On the Pixel 10 Pro Fold, the flashlight and LED light are set to the right of the camera lenses.
I’m curious how this new integration will work with the cameras. It does make the camera array smaller and cleaner-looking.
Surprisingly, we haven’t seen too many leaks for the Pixel 11 Pro Fold. From everything that has popped up, don’t expect too many exterior changes.
The biggest change will likely be an upgraded Tensor G6 chipset, which should be more powerful than the Tensor G5, which was a step up from the G4 but still lagged behind the Samsung Galaxy S25 Plus and iPhone 16 Pro.
The G6 chipset will reportedly be built using the 2nm manufacturing process, which means improved performance and efficiency thanks to increased transistor density.

Buried at the bottom of Blass’ newsletter are two smaller leaks; single images showcase what appear to be the Pixel Watch 5 and a pair of Pixel Buds. It’s not clear whether these are the Pro models.
Like the Pixel 11 Pro Fold, it seems Google isn’t changing anything design-wise for its smartwatch. The big change might be a new Tensor chipset and some updated health features.
Pixel 11 Pro Fold release date and price
Earlier this month, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman reported on an invite for the next Google Pixel event, which is set to take place in New York City on August 12 starting at 6 PM ET, a surprisingly late launch time.
Google phones typically hit store shelves about a week or two after events. The Pixel 9 was released on August 22, 2024, while the Pixel 10 hit on August 29, 2025. I expect a similar timeframe for the Pixel 11 series.
As for pricing, given the soaring cost of memory, I wouldn’t be surprised if we see a price increase. The Pixel Pro has been set at $999 for the last three years, but another $100 or $200 price seems likely.
