The new Google Pixel 11 Pro XL doesn't dramatically reinvent the company's flagship smartphone formula. From a hardware perspective, this year's model represents an incremental update. But after spending time with Google's latest full-featured Pixel, I've found that some of its most meaningful improvements for business users aren't necessarily the things that stand out on a spec sheet or benchmark chart.
Starting at $1,299 with 256GB of storage, the Pixel 11 Pro XL features a 6.8-in. Super Actua LTPO OLED display, Google's new Tensor G6 processor, a 5115mAh battery and an updated triple-camera system. Google also pledges seven years of operating system, Android security and Pixel Drop updates.
The hardware is very good, but Google's deeper integration of Gemini with Android and other thoughtful software features are what make this device more interesting.
Tensor G6 performance: The numbers don't tell the whole story
Google's Tensor processors have never been benchmark chart-toppers, and the Tensor G6 doesn't change that. In Geekbench 6, the Pixel 11 Pro XL scored 2,736 single-core and 7,399 multi-core numbers. That's a healthy improvement over the Pixel 10 Pro XL's 2,326 and 6,413, respectively, but well behind devices like Samsung's Galaxy S26 Ultra (at 3,683 and 11,243) powered by Qualcomm's latest SoCs.

It's a sign of the times: Security conference DefCon has added smart glasses to its list of banned audio- or video-recording devices.
The organizers have said that, with no consistent way to understand whether smart glasses are recording or not, they have taken the step to ban them in their entirety on the grounds that they erode trust and invade people's privacy.
Putting corrective lenses in the smart glasses will be no excuse: DefCon insists that visitors bring a pair of glasses without the smarts instead.
The smart glasses ban has been added to DefCon's already strict rules on photography, which among other things ask visitors not to take group shots and to use "portrait" mode (or a low F-stop for those with old-fashioned cameras) to focus on the foreground, so that people in the background appear blurred.
The smart glasses market has gone up a notch lately. Google and Samsung have both announced Gemini powered eyewear running on Android. Apple is looking to launch its new generation of smart glasses next June, citing privacy concerns as the reason for the delay.
