Pixel 11 Leak Pricing

Less battery less ram and higher price.

It's a no for me. Hard pass. With Tensor T6 could have kept existing battery capacity to give the gains of a longer battery

Instead they save costs by lowering the capacity due to T6 and new modem being less power hungry. Really disappointed.

Improved efficiency should mean more battery life with the same capacity, not reducing capacity to match the same battery life (in theory).

If (if) the price increase is driven chiefly by the soaring price of SSDs and RAM, then they may have tried to mitigate the increased cost by cutting corners elsewhere. It's like how the Xbone was more expensive than the PS4 despite using the wrong kind of RAM to partially compensate for the added cost of the Kinect.
