Google has inadvertently confirmed the design of the Pixel 11 Pro through an early, now-removed listing on its Google Fi website. The premature post, which appeared alongside details from leaked Amazon listings, reveals a new “Canyon” colorway and suggests a series-wide price increase of at least $100 for the upcoming lineup.
Google Fi Leak Confirms Pixel 11 Pro Design
The design of the upcoming Pixel 11 Pro was briefly exposed on the Google Fi website, providing an official look at the device before its scheduled August 12 unveiling. While the promotional copy mentioned the Pixel 11 Pro XL, Droid Life reported that the physical characteristics—specifically the microphone placement—identify the phone in the image as the standard Pixel 11 Pro.
The device features a new colorway, which appears in various reports as either “Canyon” or “Dune.” The image was pulled from the site shortly after being spotted. This visual confirmation aligns with internal imagery previously seen in accidental Amazon listings, lending further weight to the specifications and design details that leaked earlier this month.
Pricing Shifts and Hardware Specifications
Leaked Amazon store pages, which were captured by users before being removed, indicate a significant shift in Google’s hardware strategy. The company appears to be eliminating the 128GB entry-level storage tier, effectively raising the starting price of the base Pixel 11 to $899—a $100 increase from its predecessor. Android Authority reports that this trend continues across the Pro and foldable models.

| Model | Storage | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Pixel 11 | 256GB | $899 |
| Pixel 11 Pro | 256GB | $1,099 |
| Pixel 11 Pro XL | 256GB | $1,299 |
| Pixel 11 Pro Fold | 256GB | $1,899 |
Beyond the pricing changes, the leaked documents suggest a potential split in memory configurations. While previous Pro models featured 16GB of RAM as a standard, the new listings suggest that the 256GB variants of the Pro and Pro XL may ship with 12GB of RAM, with 16GB reserved for higher-capacity 512GB and 1TB versions. Mashable notes that this move may be a response to ongoing industry-wide memory supply constraints.

Pixel 11 Pro Fold and Battery Concerns
The Pixel 11 Pro Fold faces a more substantial price increase, with the 256GB model starting at $1,899—a $400 jump from the previous generation’s launch price. Despite this, some specifications found in the leaked listings have prompted scrutiny. The listed 4,750mAh battery for the foldable is smaller than the 5,015mAh capacity found in the Pixel 10 Pro Fold, leading some outlets to speculate that these specific figures may be placeholder data rather than final hardware specs.
“One detail worth noting is the listed 4,750mAh battery, which would actually be smaller than the Pixel 10 Pro Fold’s 5,015mAh pack. Given that several other listing details appear unfinished, it’s possible this battery figure is also placeholder information.”

Visual flair is also being integrated into the hardware.
