Made by Google 2026: Pixel 11 series, Gemini AI upgrades
Google is having a big event called Made by Google 2026.
It will be shown live on August 13 from New York.
Anyone can watch it for free on Google's official YouTube channel.
The main stars will be new phones called the Pixel 11 series.
There are four phones: the Pixel 11, Pixel 11 Pro, Pixel 11 Pro XL, and Pixel 11 Pro Fold.
These phones are expected to have a new tiny and fast chip called the Tensor G6, which helps the phone do smart things by itself.
Some of the phones may have a glowing light on the back, called HiLight, that tells you about important messages.
Google might also show a new smartwatch called the Pixel Watch 5.
It could even introduce the Pixel Tag, a little tracker you can attach to your things so you don't lose them.
The event is also expected to feature new Gemini AI features that keep your information more private.
Google's Made by Google 2026 event streams live from New York on August 13 starting at 3:30 AM IST on Google's official YouTube channel.
The expected centerpieces are the Pixel 11, Pixel 11 Pro, Pixel 11 Pro XL, and the foldable Pixel 11 Pro Fold.
All four Pixel 11 smartphones are rumoured to run on Google's new 2nm Tensor G6 chipset, designed to boost on-device AI processing.
Pixel 11 Pro models may debut 'HiLight' (previously called Pixel Glow), a notification light around the rear camera bar linked to Gemini features.
Other rumoured products include a Pixel Watch 5 with slimmer bezels and Wear OS 7, and a 'Pixel Tag' Bluetooth tracker tied to Google's Find Hub network.
