Pixel 11 series ships August 20, starts at $899, adds Camera Looks and Magic Capture
↗
Google's Pixel 11 series, shipping August 20, raises prices by $100 and focuses on software improvements like Camera Looks and Magic Capture.
For engineers, the Pixel 11's shift to software-driven camera processing means the Tensor G6 chipset's efficiency and ISP are central to the new features. The $100 price increase and removal of 128GB storage reflect industry-wide RAM cost pressures. The new Camera Looks feature changes how photos are processed at the sensor level, which could affect how developers approach camera APIs.
