A lot has been said about the Pixel 11 Pro and 11 Pro XL since their unveiling on August 12 — much of it not very good. Pixel phones always come with an extra heaping of criticism, warranted or not, but there are real concerns about this year’s Pro phones. They have less RAM than last year’s models, HiLight has already proven disappointing, the Tensor G6 chip isn’t a particularly big performance upgrade, and the phones are more expensive than ever before.

Considering all that, it would be safe to assume the Pixel 11 Pro () and Pixel 11 Pro XL () aren’t good phones. However, after spending about three weeks with both of them, I don’t think that could be further from the truth.
