TL;DR The specifications of Google’s upcoming Pixel 11 Pro and Pixel 11 Pro XL have leaked.

The Pro phones are said to feature improved cameras, brighter displays, but smaller batteries.

The Pixel 11 Pro and XL, along with other phones in the series, are also likely to feature a small RGB LED that replaces the thermometer.

The specifications of Google’s next flagship lineup, the Pixel 11 series, have leaked. The leak, courtesy of the Telegram channel Mystic Leaks, reveals extensive details about the three Pixel 11 phones — the base, the Pro, and the XL — as well as the Pixel 11 Pro Fold. While we have dedicated pieces for the base variant and the Fold, we’ll cover details about the Pixel 11 Pro in this article.

For starters, we don’t see a significant change in display sizes, with the Pixel 11 Pro (codenamed “Grizzly”) and Pixel 11 Pro XL (codenamed “Kodiak”) maintaining the same 6.3-inch and 6.8-inch displays, respectively. Both of these phones still use LPTO OLED panels, though we have seen a slight increase in brightness, with the two Pro devices now claimed to reach 2,450 nits in outdoor conditions.

Meanwhile, both variants are rumored to feature smaller batteries than last year’s Pixel 10 Pro and XL, undoing upgrades of previous generations. While the Pixel 11 Pro could come with a 4,707mAh battery, the XL could be limited to 5,000mAh. However, it is entirely possible that the leak talks about rated battery capacity instead of the typical or marketing values.
