Google Teases Early Access to Pixel 11 and Pixel Watch 5 Details

Google is shaking up its traditional launch event format for the Pixel 11 and Pixel Watch 5. Instead of waiting until the scheduled start time, fans can expect to get all the official information about the devices as early as 10am ET today.

This means that by 10am ET (7am PT, 3pm BST, 4pm CEST, 10pm CST), Google enthusiasts will be able to access details about the Pixel 11, Pixel 11 Pro (XL), Pixel 11 Pro Fold, Pixel Watch 5, and Pixel Tag.

The company is also likely to start pre-orders for these devices right away. This raises questions about why anyone would still want to watch the official launch event eight hours later, which will feature comedians and celebrities. It's possible that this event will be more of an after-party than a traditional launch event.

The countdown on Google's website is counting down to August 12, with pre-orders starting then. The official launch event is still scheduled for 6pm ET, but it seems that the excitement will begin much earlier today.
