After the recent Pixel 11 Pro teaser, Google has unveiled the first official video clip, dedicated to its new foldable smartphone, the Pixel 11 Pro Fold.
The 15-second video is released under the slogan "Demand more from your phone," and the announcer plays up the device's design with words about openness to new things and a form factor that "opens up."
While the video doesn't reveal any specs, it does give us a closer look at the updated main camera unit, which has an elongated capsule-like shape, matching previous leaked renders.
Made by Google 2026 — already August 12
Along with the publication of the teaser, Google activated the countdown to the Made by Google 2026 presentation.
The events will start on August 12 at 17:00 Kyiv time, and the official Google Store and American retailer Best Buy have already opened pages with a timer until the announcement. Pre-orders for the new devices are expected to start immediately after the presentation or even during the broadcast.

- new Google Tensor G6 processor;
- deep integration of Gemini AI services;

AI remains a major topic
Google's marketing campaign once again demonstrates that the company is betting not only on hardware, but also on the capabilities of artificial intelligence. Gemini is increasingly integrated into the Pixel ecosystem and is likely to become the main advantage of the new smartphone line.
Postponing the Pixel presentation to August also allows Google to enter the market earlier than competitors' traditional fall announcements and draw attention to its own AI ecosystem.
HiTech Expert Take
The appearance of the official teaser marks the end of the rumored design phase of the Pixel 11 Pro Fold. Google has confirmed the appearance of the smartphone and the date of its presentation, but most of the technical specifications remain the subject of leaks.
This year, the company seems to be focusing less on revolutionary design changes and more on ecosystem development. Gemini AIIt is the software capabilities and integration of artificial intelligence that can become the main argument in competition with other manufacturers of folding smartphones.
