Google “Pixel 11” released! What is the difference from the previous model? Check with actual machine

On August 20th, Google released the latest model of its flagship smartphone Pixel series, ``Pixel 11''. The price at the direct sales store (Google Store) is 136,800 yen (256GB model). It will also be sold by NTT Docomo, au, Softbank, and Rakuten Mobile. In addition, SIM-free models will also be sold at some electronics stores (Edion, Bic Camera, Yamada Denki, Yodobashi Camera EC sites and some stores). On August 13th, Japan's first official store "Google Store Omotesando" opened, making it easier than ever to check out the actual device. What has changed about the Pixel 11 compared to its predecessor, the Pixel 10? In this article, I will tell you about it while checking it on the actual machine. →Google “Pixel 11”, “11 Pro” and “11 Pro XL” are now available! The Pixel 11, which looks almost the same as its predecessor, the Pixel 10, comes in four colors: Frost, Pistachio, Hibiscus, and Obsidian. Frost and Obsidian continue from Pixel 10, Indigo and Lemongrass are gone, and Pistachio and Hibiscus are newly added in their place. The main body size of Pixel 11 is approximately 72 (width) x 152.8 (depth) x 8.6 (thickness) mm, which is exactly the same as Pixel 10. However, the protrusion of the camera bar has been significantly reduced. The actual measurement value of the thickest part including the camera bar is 10.6 mm for Pixel 11 and 12.0 mm for Pixel 10. The body thickness of both is 8.6mm, so the amount of protrusion is reduced by about 40% from about 3.4mm to about 2.0mm. The thickness of the camera part is different, so if you use a Pixel 11 case with a Pixel 10, the camera will stick out. On the other hand, if you attach a Pixel 10 case to a Pixel 11, the camera section will be slightly dented, but other than that there should be no problem. Regarding the camera part, in addition to the thickness, the appearance has also changed. The Pixel 10 had a separate design for the camera and flash, but the Pixel 11 has a design that looks like they are integrated. The higher-end model has a new feature called "HiLight" on the right edge, but on the Pixel 11 it functions as a regular flashlight. The display is a 6.3-inch Actua display with a resolution of 1080 x 2424 pixels (422ppi). The refresh rate is 60-120Hz, the maximum brightness is 2000 nits (HDR), and the peak brightness is 3000 nits. The specifications are exactly the same as the Pixel 10, and there appears to be no change in the display.
