Pixel 11's Muted 'Pistachio' Color Option Disappoints Reviewer

Google's latest smartphone, the Pixel 11, is available in several color options, including Pistachio. However, one of the writers at 9to5Google, who got hands-on experience with the device, expressed disappointment with this particular shade.

The reviewer states that the color 'Pistachio' for the base Pixel 11 doesn't quite live up to its name and instead looks like a muted green reminiscent of old avocado. They compare it unfavorably to the Olive-colored Pixel 11 Pro and Pro XL, which they find more visually appealing.

The writer praises the matte side rails on the Pixel 11 but notes that the shiny silver finish on the Frost version looks somewhat generic. In contrast, the Obsidian model is described as an 'undisputable win.'

Interestingly, the reviewer finds the matching case for the Pistachio-colored phone to be visually appealing, which might change their perception of the device's color if it were a different shade.
