Google Pixel 11 teaser video confirms Pixel Glow feature, pre-order date

Last week, Google announced that it will be unveiling the Pixel 11 family at an event in New York City on August 12. Now, the company has uploaded a very short teaser video for the devices onto the homepage of its online store of all places. Here it is for your viewing pleasure.

The video shows a much-rumored upcoming feature called Pixel Glow, which is basically a circular LED light that can show a full range of colors. This will be used as a glorified notification light, of course. With its full-color array, hopefully it will be customizable to show different colors for different apps, but that remains to be seen.

This is also, believe it or not, the first time Google has actually confirmed the Pixel 11 name. The company has additionally revealed that it will start taking pre-orders for the Pixel 11 family on August 12, the day of the launch event.

If you're in the US and go to the Google Store's homepage and enter your email address before August 7 at 11:59 PM PT, on August 12 Google will send you a special promo code for the devices, which you can use until August 27 at 11:59 PM PT.
