The Pixel 11 Pro XL is down to a seriously tempting price ahead of Black Friday month

Best Buy has slashed $350 off the Google Pixel 11 Pro XL to take Google’s 6.8-inch flagship from $1,299 to $949.

Unlocked with 256GB of storage, the Google Pixel 11 Pro XL went from its starting price of $1,299 to $949 in a Best Buy holiday deal, a savings of $350, or 27%, on a phone that only reached stores on August 20.

That leaves the Pixel 11 Pro XL just $50 above the standard Pixel 11’s $899 starting price, so the full Pro camera system, 12 GB of RAM and the larger screen now cost only a little more than Google’s entry-level model.

These cameras include a 50MP main sensor, a 48MP ultra-wide and a 48MP telephoto with 5x optical zoom, while Pro Zoom reaches up to 120x for shots like a full moon rising over the rooftops.

Magic Capture makes the most of it, shooting a video and photos with a single touch before automatically editing a collection, ready to share. Pro Stable Video keeps footage steady on the go, and 8K Video Boost improves color and clarity for more immersive scenes.

Everything you shoot plays back on a 6.8-inch OLED display that runs at 120Hz and reaches 3,600 nits, while Tensor G6 and a vapor chamber keep the Google Pixel 11 Pro XL cool and fast through long editing sessions.

Gemini Intelligence handles the busy work next door, finding flight details in Gmail and adding them to your calendar, while HiLight gently glows when favorite contacts call or you’re talking to Gemini and the phone is down.

Underneath it all, the 5,115mAh battery with Qi2 wireless charging, IP68 water and dust protection, Wi-Fi 7 and the Titan M3 security chip with a built-in VPN round out a phone that covers all the bases at this price.

You can weigh it up against the rest of Google’s line-up in our best Pixel phones 2026 guide, but at $350 off, the Pro XL now undercuts the smaller Pixel 11 Pro’s $1,099 starting price by $150.

Christmas is less than eight weeks away, and the $350 Google Pixel 11 Pro XL makes Google’s flagship a gift worth putting at the top of the list for anyone whose phone doubles as a main camera.
