Pixel 11 Pro XL shows up in hands-on leak days ahead of launch [Gallery]

With just a few days left to go before Google’s Pixel 11 launch event, a hands-on leak has shown off the Pixel 11 Pro XL in real life.

We’ve seen everything there is to see – probably – about the Pixel 11 series at this point. Familiar designs, new colors, “HiLight,” and higher prices, among other things. But, compared to most years, leaks have been relatively tame. In particular, we haven’t really seen any hands-on leaks of the device.

Today, a new pair of images show off the Pixel 11 Pro XL in real life, specifically the all-matte black model that’s shown up in renders. The camera lenses look more pronounced this time around, but that could simply be the lighting of the shot. The “HiLight” LED does look a bit bigger than a traditional flash, but there’s no indication of what it can do at a glance.

There’s also a look at the box for the color that’s rumored to be called either “Dune” or “Canyon.” The packaging design this year is identical to Pixel 10.

These images were posted by @PixelNewsHub on Twitter/X and are apparently sourced from carrier demo units, which would indeed be on their way to storefronts this close to launch for the sake of displays ahead of the actual release date.

Are you ready for the Pixel 11 launch?
