In short
- Google used its Made by Google 2026 event to introduce the Pixel 11 phone range, a $399 smartwatch, a $29 item tracker and expanded Gemini features.
Google unveiled its Pixel 11 smartphone range alongside the Pixel Watch 5 and a new Pixel Tag tracker at its Made by Google event on August 12, 2026, placing expanded Gemini features at the centre of its latest hardware lineup.
The Pixel 11 series begins with 256GB of storage and costs $100 more at entry level than the previous generation, according to TechCrunch. Google also introduced the Pixel 11 Pro Fold, a foldable model priced at $1,899, with a stronger build and brighter displays.
The Pixel Watch 5 starts at $399. Google says the smartwatch can monitor blood-pressure patterns and insulin resistance, while adding more personalised Gemini assistance and expanded sleep-tracking capabilities.
Google also entered the dedicated item-tracker market with the $29 Pixel Tag. The device uses the company’s Find Hub network to help locate belongings such as keys and bags, positioning it as a direct alternative to Apple’s AirTag.
A related Quick Share update adds a tap-to-share mode for exchanging contacts, photos and videos. Taken together, the announcements show Google tying its phones, wearables and accessories more closely to Gemini and its wider Android device network.
