Google's Pixel 11 smartphone line has entered full retail availability, moving beyond the pre-order phase that opened on August 12. According to Android Authority, general sales began on August 20, ending the wait for buyers who had reserved the devices.
The handsets are on sale in stores and through carriers in select markets, GSMArena reported. Among US operators, T-Mobile is promoting its three non-folding models at no upfront cost, framing the deal as getting the Pixel 11 Pro XL free. The offer amounts to a discount of $1,300, which brings the base model to zero. To qualify, customers must add a new line or trade in an older device in any condition, and sign up for the carrier's Experience Beyond 2.0 and Go5G Next plans. The discount is delivered as credits applied to the monthly bill over a period of up to 36 months.
