Google Pixel 11 Pro vs Google Pixel 11 Pro XL

The XL grows in both directions: next to Pixel 11 Pro it’s 10mm taller and 4.6mm wider, yet only a tenth of a millimeter thicker, and it weighs 22 grams more.

Same screen technology, two sizes

Both screens are Super Actua LTPO OLEDs in a 20:9 shape, with HDR, contrast over 2,000,000:1 and a refresh rate that runs from 1Hz to 120Hz. Both are rated for up to 2,400 nits in HDR and 3,600 nits peak, so neither is brighter than the other. The Pro’s is 6.3 inches (161mm) at 1280 × 2856 and 495 pixels per inch; the XL’s is 6.8 inches (171mm) at 1344 × 2992 and 486.

The build matches too: Gorilla Glass Victus 2 on the front with Google’s anti-scratch coating, a silky matte Victus 2 back, a spacecraft-grade aluminum frame (matte on Obsidian), and IP68. Both come in Canyon, Olive, Fog and Obsidian.

The XL’s other extras: battery and charging

The XL’s battery is 5,115mAh typical and 5,000mAh minimum, so even its minimum beats the Pro’s typical 4,850mAh (4,707mAh minimum). Google still rates both phones for 30+ hours of use.

The XL charges faster by cable: about 75% in 30 minutes, if you use a 45W USB-C PPS charger or higher, against about 55% for the Pro on a 30W charger or higher. Google also says the XL can get 15 hours of use from 15 minutes of charging; that claim is the XL’s alone. Either way you buy the charger separately, since each box holds just the phone and a USB-C cable (1 meter, USB 2.0).

Wireless charging doesn’t separate them: both top out at 25W on Pixelsnap, which is Qi2.2-certified.

Identical cameras

Google puts the same camera hardware in both sizes:

Camera	Pixel 11 Pro and Pro XL
Main	50 megapixels, Octa PD, f/1.68, 82°, 1/1.3-inch sensor
Ultrawide	48 megapixels, Quad PD, f/1.7, 123°, 1/2.51-inch sensor, macro autofocus
Telephoto	48 megapixels, Quad PD, f/2.8, 23°, 1/1.95-inch sensor, optical stabilization, 5x optical zoom
Zoom	Optical-quality steps at 0.5x, 1x, 2x, 5x and 10x; Pro Zoom up to 120x
Front	42 megapixels, Dual PD autofocus, f/2.2, 103°
Video	8K at 24 or 30fps (Video Boost); 4K and 1080p at 24, 30 or 60fps

Google lists 10-bit HDR video and slow motion up to 240fps under Pixel 11 Pro without repeating them for the XL, though the camera hardware is the same. Both also get HiLight, the ring of status LEDs around the flash that you see when the phone is face down.

Everything else is shared

Tensor G6 and the Titan M3 security chip power both, with 12GB of RAM at 256GB and 16GB at 512GB or 1TB (the larger two use Zoned UFS). Both launched on Android 17 with seven years of OS, security and Pixel Drop updates, and both get Google’s Gemini features, including Gemini Nano and Gemini Live.

Both have Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6, plus NFC, Google Cast, ultra-wideband and Thread. US models run two eSIMs at once, can store eight or more, and use dual-band GPS, GLONASS and Galileo. You unlock either with your fingerprint, your face, or a pattern, PIN or password. Both have Satellite SOS, Emergency SOS, Crisis Alerts, Car Crash Detection, Safety Check, emergency location sharing and earthquake alerts.

Google lists G7SWN and GBC0H as Pixel 11 Pro’s US 5G millimeter-wave models and GBC0H for the XL; bands vary by carrier, so check the exact model if you need a particular one. Google gives a recycled-content figure only for the Pro: at least 31% by product weight, with 100% recycled aluminum in the housing, 100% recycled cobalt and lithium in the battery, and plastic-free packaging.

Prices

Google took pre-orders for both on 12 August 2026, the day it announced them, and they reached shelves on 20 August: Pixel 11 Pro at $1,099 and the XL at $1,299, so the bigger screen and battery cost $200. Storage starts at 256GB on both, and there’s no 128GB model. Google Store trade-in prices aren’t launch prices, so compare like for like before you buy.
