Google basically confirms the Pixel 11 is getting a price hike

谷歌基本确认 Pixel 11 将迎来涨价

Google’s Vice President of Devices and Services, Shakil Barkat, all but confirmed in an interview with 9to5 Google that its next Pixel phone would cost more than the Pixel 10. Considering the ongoing RAM supply issues due to the explosion of AI data centers, the rumored price hike is not a complete surprise. Companies from Apple to Nintendo, Microsoft to Roku, have all raised their prices in response to the soaring cost of memory.

谷歌设备与服务副总裁 Shakil Barkat 在接受 9to5 Google 采访时几乎证实，其下一代 Pixel 手机的价格将高于 Pixel 10。考虑到人工智能数据中心爆发式增长导致的持续内存（RAM）供应问题，这一涨价传闻并不令人意外。从苹果到任天堂，从微软到 Roku，各家公司都已因内存成本飙升而提高了产品价格。

Barkat said that Google had “shielded our consumers from supply fluctuations for as long as possible,” but that the “economics have fundamentally shifted and we’re not immune to that.” He went on to tell 9to5 that the Pixel lineup would see pricing “adjustments,” accordingly, that “will be rolled out dynamically to match supply realities.”

Barkat 表示，谷歌此前“尽可能地保护了消费者免受供应波动的影响”，但“经济形势已经发生了根本性转变，我们无法独善其身”。他随后告诉 9to5，Pixel 产品线将相应地进行价格“调整”，并将“根据供应现实进行动态调整”。

The base model Pixel 11 is expected to cost $899, but would come with 256GB of storage, instead of 128GB. It’s also rumored that the Pixel 11 Pro could go from 16GB of RAM to 12GB. We won’t have to wait too long to find out for sure, though. Google’s scheduled to announce the next generation of Pixel devices on August 12th.

预计基础款 Pixel 11 的售价为 899 美元，但存储空间将从 128GB 提升至 256GB。另有传闻称，Pixel 11 Pro 的内存可能会从 16GB 缩减至 12GB。不过，我们无需等待太久就能揭晓答案。谷歌计划于 8 月 12 日发布下一代 Pixel 设备。
